14k Yellow Gold Custom Diamond Engagement Ring
Item #100565 $5,265 Price does not include center stoneEngagement Ring Description
Star 129 Diamond
The centerpiece of this ring is a round Star 129 diamond, and it’s held in a four prong setting made of 18k yellow gold. The tops of the prongs are slightly squared, and this detail creates a subtle contrast with the perfectly round shape of the diamond in the middle.
The client chose the Star 129 diamond because he wanted the most brilliant stone possible. This cut features 129 precisely placed facets to maximize the amount of light that’s reflected back out. That’s in comparison to the approximately 58 facets that a round brilliant cut diamond has, which makes it easy to see why the Star 129 makes for so much more dramatic of a presentation.
Band Design and Diamond Accents
The band begins as one piece across the bottom, but it splits into two strands around the mid-point on each side. These strands bow out and then curve back in, crossing over each other once before reaching out again to transition into the prongs holding the center diamond. There is also a secondary split on the lower, outside portion of each strand just before they cross over each other, and the resulting strands reach across below the main setting, creating a criss-cross design on both ring fronts. Unique Engagement Rings
Bright cut set diamonds line each strand in the piece, covering the top surface of the band as well as both ring fronts. The fact that these white stones are surrounded by the rich tones of the yellow gold band really helps them stand out, and their sparkle echoes that of the larger diamond at the top.
Custom Wedding Sets
The wedding ring we created to complement this piece features the same criss-crossing band design, as well as matching diamond accents. That helps ensure a truly dazzling display when the two rings are worn together, as well as a perfect alignment of all details in the set.

Customizing This Design
Any Joseph Jewelry item can be customized or used as the starting point for a new custom design. The gemstones, metal, proportions, setting style, surface details, and overall profile can be adjusted to better match your preferences, style, and budget.
Every custom piece begins with a conversation about what you want to create and what matters most to you. You work one-on-one with a designer to refine the concept, review the design direction, and create a detailed 3D CAD image of the item before it is made.
After the design is approved, we can create a wax model so you can review the piece physically. This step helps you evaluate scale, proportions, shape, and overall presence before final production begins.
Once the wax model is approved, our jewelers craft the finished piece with attention to structure, finish, stone security, and long-term wear. Each adjustment is reviewed carefully so the final item feels intentional, balanced, and made specifically for you.
You do not need to have every detail figured out before starting. If you like this item but want to change the stone, metal, size, shape, width, engraving, or overall style, we can guide those decisions through the custom design process.
Quality & Craftsmanship
At Joseph Jewelry, quality begins with the structure. We follow strict design and construction standards for metal thickness, weight, stone support, setting security, and long-term durability. These details help ensure the item is substantial enough for everyday wear while still maintaining a refined appearance.
We do not design custom jewelry to be unnecessarily thin or fragile. If a setting, band, gallery, or accent detail needs more support, we address it before production begins. The goal is to protect the stones, preserve the shape of the ring, and create a piece that can be worn confidently over time.
Gemstone selection is also part of our quality process. We help choose the center stone, side stones, and melee diamonds used in each ring, reviewing them for cut, color, clarity, consistency, and how well they fit the design. Even when a ring is designed around a specific budget, we maintain careful standards for the materials and craftsmanship that determine the quality of the finished piece.
Before completion, each custom piece is reviewed for proportion, comfort, stone security, finishing, and long-term wear.
Care & Warranty
All Joseph Jewelry custom pieces are supported by our lifetime warranty. We also provide long-term care, including complimentary cleaning and regular inspection, so your jewelry can be maintained properly over time.
Routine inspection is especially valuable for pieces worn every day. It allows the setting, stones, and overall structure to be checked as the jewelry is worn.
