Long step facets need room to breathe, and this emerald shape semi-mount halo engagement ring gives them exactly that, the open center seat proportioned for a stone of 3.65 Ctw to 4.50 Ctw. Across the mounting, 54 round cut diamonds are prong set, first gathering into a rectangular halo that follows the center outline and then continuing down the shoulders in a graduated line. Each stone sits in open metalwork so light enters from every direction. A halo does more than add brilliance, since a close frame of small stones makes the center appear noticeably larger than it measures, which is why the format has held its place for a century. Here the effect is drawn to rectangular proportions. Crafted in rhodium finish 14 karat rose gold, the blush of the metal warms the architecture, and the ring is finished with a total weight of 3/4 Ctw.
