Design Your Own Engagement Ring
Center Diamond
The center of this ring is an Asscher cut diamond. It weighs around two carats and is set compass-style, meaning the points are at the directional points of north, south, east, and west. The Asscher cut accentuates the beauty of the stone, showing off the long parallel cuts and adding a vintage glamour. Diamond Engagement Rings
Split Shank
The center diamond is held in place by traditional prongs. From under the east and west points of the stone, the shank splits out in two directions. Our designers played with a few different widths for the split, and the client decided for a nice medium split. The two strands join back together on the bottom of the ring, and the entire set is made of polished platinum. Solitaire Engagement Rings
Finally, we also created a simple band to match this engagement ring. This was a great option so that the pieces could perfectly match. One could customize this ring by adding diamonds or hand engraving down the shank.
