Diamond mountings are available for several shapes and sizes. Note that some hold the Diamond up high on prongs and some keep the Diamond low just above the ring. Side views show you the height.
Diamonds are available in many sizes and grades so I can choose a stone for you to match your budget. The weave of the ring is usually matched to the diamond size, but the weave can be narrow to accomodate a band fitting next to the Diamond ring. Let me know your preference.
The prices shown are for SI2 clarity and D E or F color. In this range there are no flaws that can be seen without magnification, and the color is whiter than white gold. You can have a higher grade if you like, but it probably would not look any different due to the higher expense.
The Marquis Diamond is my most popular. The shape goes well with the weave of the ring. It lets the details of the weave show and compliments the interlacing knotwork of the design. Having the Diamond on the ring does not change the puzzle assembly at all. It actually makes the assembly easier as the diamond is on the band that has the starting markings on it. So finding the starting place takes less time. The picture on the right gives a good indication of the height of the setting. The Diamond on the left is 1.6 carats and requires thicker gold to hold it then is usually needed. For Diamonds in the 1/2 carat range a medium weight ring is fine. Here the gold is thicker. The ring can be all one color of 14k or you can have several colors. All white gold is fine as well. The cost is dependant on the diamond weight. |
