Emerald Shape Semi-Mount Diamond Engagement Ring

A rectangular center reads calm where the metal around it moves, and that contrast carries this two-tone semi-mount engagement ring. The seat is drawn for a stone of 1.65 Ctw to 2.35 Ctw, with 14 round cut diamonds prong set along the shoulders in a slender run that keeps the band in proportion. The open settings leave every stone exposed on all sides. A step cut asks for a setting that respects its lines, and the mounting here stays clear of the center entirely, leaving the stone to be read on its own terms. Clearing the way for the stone is the entire brief here. Yellow and white gold are worked together across the 14 karat mounting, with a rhodium finish over the white gold, and the ring closes with a total weight of 1/10 Ctw.
