A Closer Look at Aryna Sabalenka’s 12 Carat Oval-Cut Diamond Engagement Ring

Earlier this week, tennis player Aryna Sabalenka got engaged to her boyfriend Georgios Frangulis. She had been playfully putting pressure on him to propose, including at a tournament at the start of the year when she said, “Last but not least, thank you to my team for handling me. I really am the toughest to handle and you are the toughest in the world because you can handle me. Thank you to my boyfriend...Hopefully soon I can call you something else.”

When the proposal did finally happen, Sabalenka was surprised. “Well, I obviously had NO idea this was happening tonight,” she wrote on Instagram stories after, referencing the fact she was wearing a white t-shirt and jeans for the proposal. She later shared a series of sweet snaps with Frangulis, including a close-up of her new ring:

The ring was designed by Isabela Grutman, CEO and Founder of ISA Grutman Jewelry. It features an oval-cut diamond weighing over 12 carats, and is set in platinum with emerald accents. “I’ve always admired their love and relationship, so I was incredibly flattered when Georgios asked me to design this piece,” Grutman said in a statement shared with Town & Country. “We spent months working on the design, selecting the stones, and perfecting every detail of the craftsmanship to make it truly special for Aryna.”

She added, “What made it even more meaningful was Georgios’ idea to incorporate emeralds into the design, as it’s her favorite stone—a personal touch that makes the ring uniquely hers.” On her Instagram, she shared a reel of designing the ring. “This stone is perfect for [Sabalenka],” Grutman said.

“So talented and special you are,” Sabalenka commented on the post, “love you,” adding a red heart emoji. Up next for the tennis star is the Indian Wells Tournament in Palm Springs, which began yesterday.
