How the Diamonds Work Together on the Ring

Seen on the hand, the approximately 8 carats of Ruby Red diamonds read as a single ribbon of light rather than individual pieces.

Ring Design, Setting & Craftsmanship

Our three-generation ateliers design the architecture around the diamonds and gemstones themselves, carving galleries, claws and bridges in 14K White Gold so the outline of the Round stones is honoured rather than forced into a generic mount.

Each seat is cut by hand to cradle the stones securely while allowing light to travel freely through them. The result is a piece that feels like modern high jewelry engineering wrapped around approximately 8 carats of Ruby Red brilliance – supple on the hand, yet reassuringly robust for a lifetime of wear.
