Interesting : Benny Blanco designed Selena Gomez’s marquise engagement ring with ‘special symbols’ of their love…

Benny Blanco proposed to the singer, 32, with a stunning marquise engagement ring earlier this month after a year of dating, and the music producer, 36, had a specific image in his mind when designing the sparkler.

Blanco teamed up with jewelry duo Katherine Theofilos Claster and Stephanie Theofilos, the designers behind Abril Barret, to create the totally custom and special piece: a marquise center stone in a cathedral setting with an oversized brilliant-cut eternity band.

The duo has worked with Blanco for a few years and have a “synergy” with him that “just works,” Theofilos Claster tells Page Six Style exclusively, so when it came to creating perhaps the most important piece of jewelry, the collaboration was seamless.

“We started the project earlier this year. Benny, a wonderful creative himself, had specific inspiration, including the center cut, the marquise,” Theofilos Claster says.

“We worked closely with multiple approaches before our final ring,” she adds. “Benny had a very sharp idea of what he ultimately envisioned. We combined it with our Abril Barret sentiment to capture the essence of an heirloom piece with a modern hand.”

Fans of Gomez’s pop career immediately drew a connection between the ring and lyrics from her 2015 song “Good for You,” in which the actress sings, “I’m on my marquise diamonds / I’m a marquise diamond” before quipping in the next line, “Could even make that Tiffany jealous.”
