Jackie Kennedy’s Engagement Ring

John F. Kennedy And Jacqueline Kennedy Jackiesering

 

John F. Kennedy and Jackie O. were a beautiful couple. Their engagement occurred on June 24, 1953 with a wedding date set of September 12, 1953. He proposed with a Van Cleef & Arpels engagement ring–the crossover design featured a 2.84 carat emerald and 2.88 carat diamond with baguette cut diamond accents. When Jackie Kennedy became first lady and famously redecorated the white house, she also had the ring redesigned, replacing the baguettes with marquise and round diamonds.
