Description
This beautiful engagement ring features a round brilliant cut blue diamond suspended in a split shank, accented with custom filigree designed to look like DNA. It was created as a custom piece for a client from Scottsdale, AZ, who worked with our design team extensively online to get every detail just right. This was made possible despite the distance thanks to the high-quality 3D imaging technology that we utilize for all custom pieces.

Blue Diamond Solitaire
Diamonds are a traditional choice for engagement rings in particular due to the way they represent romantic love and unparalleled beauty. The use of a blue diamond here both brings some color to the ring and adds another layer of meaning, as blue diamonds are associated with passion and energy. Diamond Engagement Rings
The cool blue color of the stone contrasts beautifully with the white gold used in the band, and the modified bezel tension setting really lets the stone shine from all angles, while also complementing its shape nicely.
Split Shank
The shank design was the client’s main focus during the design process, as it was very important to him that we get the look just right. He was inspired by our original design #1305, but he wanted to replace the swirl filigree in that ring with bars to make the band look more like a twisted fragment of DNA.
After exploring several possibilities, he and the design team settled on the arrangement of bars seen here, and the split ends of the shank also continue up to cradle the center stone, which serves to tie all design elements together.
Custom Design
Although our client couldn't come visit us in person at our Bellevue, WA location, we put together a ring he was completely satisfied with thanks to the wonderful professional designers and artisans we have on staff and the technological tools we use for all custom orders. These allowed him to adjust the design of his ring until it was exactly right, and we could put it into production knowing that he would be completely satisfied with the result.
