How the Diamonds Work Together on the Ring

The approximately 10.16 carats of Fancy Yellow Cushion cut diamonds are set at slightly graduated heights and tilts so they catch and return light to the viewer from multiple directions.

The eye doesn’t pick out individual settings; it simply reads a continuous, couture-level wash of brilliance flowing around the finger.

Diamond Carat Weight & Presence on the Hand

Set with approximately 10.16 carats of fancy colour diamonds, this design offers a luxurious surface of brilliance that spans the width of the finger. The result is a carat presence that feels deliberate and architectural rather than simply large.

Ring Design, Setting & Craftsmanship

Every Legacy ring begins at the bench, not on a factory line. Our three-generation ateliers design the architecture around the fancy colour diamonds themselves, carving galleries, claws and bridges in 18K Yellow Gold so the outline of the Cushion 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 10.16 carats of Fancy Yellow brilliance – supple on the hand, yet reassuringly robust for a lifetime of wear.
