After Behati Prinsloo revealed on Extra TV that Maroon 5’s Adam Levine proposed to her with an engagement ring from the 1930s, we believe a vintage trend will now trump Natalie Portman’s sustainable, Earth-friendly engagement ring trend.

Her engagement ring is a remarkable vintage piece from the 1930s. It features a round center diamond held by four prongs and is distinguished by the delicate scrollwork of the band.
