Most solitaires use four prongs, but this one uses six. It creates a subtle, almost snowflake-like frame around the centre diamond. This also adds a little extra security, holding the stone firmly in place from all sides.
A round 0.20-carat diamond sits at the centre, held by six slender prongs. From there, twelve smaller diamonds are set into the shoulders of the band, six on each side. The shared prongs give the edges a scalloped texture that catches light. The bottom half of the band is simple, high-polish metal, making it smooth against the inside of your hand.
We build this ring from solid 14-karat gold, which is 58.3% pure gold mixed with stronger alloys. This gives it the durability needed for a piece you'll wear daily. To get that bright, silvery-white finish, we plate the gold with a layer of rhodium. Rhodium is a hard, reflective metal from the platinum family, which means it helps protect the gold underneath from minor scratches and keeps the colour from yellowing over time. All the diamonds are natural, with an average E/F colour and VVS clarity.

It’s for someone who finds a plain solitaire a little too simple but thinks a halo is too much. You get the focus of a single centre stone, but the diamond-lined band adds light and detail from more angles. It's a way to get more sparkle without more size.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the small diamonds on the band of my engagement ring snag on clothes?
The shared-prong setting on this ring is designed to be as smooth as possible, but any ring with pavé diamonds has the potential to snag on delicate fabrics like knits or lace. We make the prongs low and rounded to minimize this. It's just something to be mindful of with this style of setting.
Can I shower or wash my hands while wearing my Vanhess diamond ring?
Yes, you can wash your hands with this diamond ring on. Water and gentle soap won't harm the gold or the diamonds. However, we recommend taking it off before showering, as soap scum and residue can build up over time, dulling the diamonds' sparkle and getting trapped in the settings.
How do I find my correct ring size for an engagement ring like this?
The most accurate way to find your ring size is to be measured by a local jeweller. You can also use our printable ring sizer, but make sure to measure at the end of the day when your finger is at its largest. For a band like this, you want a snug fit that can slide over your knuckle but won't easily spin or fall off.
What happens if I need to return my diamond engagement ring?
We have a 30-day return policy for our rings. If it's not the right fit, just contact us at returns@vanhess.ca within 30 days of receiving your order. We'll send you a prepaid shipping label so you can send it back to our studio in Coquitlam for a full refund.
How long does shipping take for a gold ring to the United States?
Shipping to the US is free for orders over $60 CAD and typically takes between 5 to 15 business days to arrive after it leaves our studio. We also offer free shipping to Canada on orders over $60 CAD and to the UK/EU on orders over $110 CAD with similar timelines.
