Pear Shape Semi-Mount Diamond Engagement Ring

A pear at this scale needs a band that supports without crowding, and the shoulders of this two-tone semi-mount engagement ring are drawn accordingly, carrying 25 round cut diamonds in prong settings that taper as they travel back. The center seat is left open for a stone of 3.65 Ctw to 4.50 Ctw. Each stone sits clear on every side so light reaches it directly. Warm and cool metal together give the band a depth that a single tone cannot, and on a ring built around one dominant stone that subtlety is exactly the right amount. Restraint is the harder discipline and the more lasting one. Yellow and white gold meet across the 14 karat mounting, with a rhodium finish applied to the white gold, and the ring closes with a total weight of 1/6 Ctw.
