Marquise Shape Semi-Mount Diamond Engagement Ring

Elongation defines the marquise center setting of this semi-mount engagement ring, its pointed silhouette waiting on a stone of 1.65 Ctw to 2.35 Ctw. 6 straight baguette diamonds carrying weight 1/5 Ctw are flush set into the band, their straight facets reading as a smooth belt of reflected light rather than individual stones. Alongside them, 14 round cut diamonds carrying weight 1/10 Ctw rest in prong settings, spaced evenly so brilliance remains uniform across the shank. The mounting is worked in 14 karat rose and white gold, the warmth of one metal softening the crispness of the other, with a rhodium finish brightening the white gold surfaces. Intended for a promise that precedes a lifetime, the ring closes with a total weight of 1/4 Ctw.
