Emerald Shape Semi-Mount Halo Diamond Engagement Ring

Long step facets read as planes rather than points, and framing them well is the whole task of this emerald shape semi-mount halo engagement ring, its center seat sized for a stone of 0.85 Ctw to 1.20 Ctw. Through the mounting, 47 round cut diamonds carrying weight 1/2 Ctw are prong set, forming a rectangular halo that follows the center outline before continuing along the shoulders. The contrast between the calm center and the mobile brilliance around it is the point of the design. A halo also does practical work, since a close frame of small stones makes the center appear noticeably larger than it measures. At this range that effect matters more than it would at any other. Crafted in rhodium finish 14 karat white gold and finished with rhodium for a clean, even surface, the ring closes with a total weight of 1/2 Ctw.
