Description
This gorgeous engagement ring features a round brilliant cut diamond in a bezel setting, surrounded by a halo of alternating white diamonds and blue sapphires, and accented by additional diamonds and milgrain beading on the white gold shank below. It’s a piece with a decidedly vintage feel, and it can be modified in a number of ways to allow you to put your personal mark on it. Design Your Own Engagement Ring

Whether you’d like to begin the custom design process with an in-person conversation in our Bellevue, WA showroom, or you prefer to reach out to our team through our website, we’ll take all of the information you give us about your style and feature preferences and use it to create a unique design that we’ll share with you through the online workroom we set up to manage your project. After seeing these models, you can request any changes you’d like, and we’ll proceed through as many cycles of revisions as are necessary to ensure every detail is perfect.
Center Diamond and Halo
In the center of this ring, a 0.50 carat round brilliant cut diamond sits in a full bezel setting made of 18k white gold. The bezel follows the contours of the diamond exactly, highlighting its perfectly round shape and keeping all of its edges protected. This type of setting also allows the entire piece to maintain a lower profile, making damage to the center or the diamonds in the halo less likely, even with everyday wear. Halo Engagement Rings
The halo sits at nearly the same level as the center diamond, and it’s composed of six blue sapphires and six white diamonds that are set in an alternating pattern all the way around. The diamonds are round, and they’re bright cut set, while the sapphires are specially cut to fill the almost wedge-shaped space between the diamonds, and they’re bezel set. The arrangement of the stones, as well as the contrast between their colors, both contribute to the vaguely floral aesthetic of the center. Blue Sapphire Engagement Rings
Band Design and Diamond Accents
On each shank shoulder, a decorative diamond-shaped space angles down along the band, holding a single bright cut set diamond within it. The top of the diamond shape continues past the meeting point, with both sides curling up and out along the side of the halo. The diamond is lined with milgrain, as are the stones in the halo, and this detail adds to the vintage overtones of the design.
