Emerald Shape Semi-Mount Halo Diamond Engagement Ring

An emerald shape center setting gives this semi-mount halo engagement ring its architectural clarity, the open seat awaiting a stone of 2.75 Ctw to 3.50 Ctw. 52 round cut diamonds are prong set throughout the mounting, framing the center in a close halo before continuing along the shoulders in an even, tapering line. The prong work leaves each stone exposed to light on every side, so the halo reads as a bright, continuous outline rather than a series of separate points. Crafted in rhodium finish 14 karat yellow gold, the warm metal softens the geometry of the design and adds a golden depth beneath the brilliance. Yellow gold suits this cut particularly well, its warmth filling the open planes of the setting and lending depth beneath the halo. Made for a commitment stated plainly, it closes with a total weight of 3/4 Ctw.
