Akron, Ohio—Kay Jewelers has expanded its collection with bridal designer Monique Lhuillier, adding colored lab-grown diamonds.

The newly expanded “Monique Lhuillier Bliss” collection showcases pink, blue, and yellow lab-grown diamonds, marking the first time Kay Jewelers has offered a collection that includes colored lab-grown diamond engagement rings.

The 12-piece addition features the colored lab-grown diamonds set in 18-karat gold with total carat weights ranging from 1.5 carats to 2.63 carats.

“I love working with colors, prints, and patterns and have been able to infuse these details into my wedding gowns, so I’m thrilled to launch a collection with Kay Jewelers that brings this inspiration to the ‘Monique Lhuillier Bliss’ engagement ring collection,” said Lhuillier in a press release.

“Working with florals and anything colorful is joyous to me and to bring that inspiration to these new engagement rings will make romantic engagements even more special.”

Lhuillier first collaborated with Kay Jewelers on an exclusive bridal jewelry line in 2021, later expanding it in 2023 to add colored gemstones and black diamonds, and then lab-grown diamonds.

“We’re incredibly excited to partner with Monique Lhuillier to bring the first colored lab-created diamond collection to Kay as part of the Monique Lhuillier Bliss Collection,” Kay Jewelers President Bill Brace said in a statement.

“Monique’s unique vision and commitment to elegance are perfectly captured in these stunning, colorful lab-created diamonds. This collection represents a bold step forward, blending classic sophistication with modern innovation, and aligns perfectly with our goal of offering modern couples a range of truly exceptional, unique, and personalized choices for their special moments.”

The new additions to the collection range in price from about $4,100 to $7,300.
