Look at the ring from the side and you’ll find a hidden circle of diamonds just below the main stone. It's a detail you don't see from the top, designed to lift the centre oval and throw light into it from underneath.
The main feature is a large, oval-cut diamond held in place by four simple prongs. The band is thin—about 2 mm—and is set with a continuous line of 40 small, round diamonds. These are held in a French pavé setting, which means you can see the sides of the stones. Just under the prongs, a hidden halo of more pavé diamonds wraps around the base of the setting.
We make this ring from solid 14K or 18K gold. The 14K option is 58.3% pure gold mixed with stronger alloys, which means it’s very resistant to dents and scratches from daily wear. If you choose white gold, we plate it with rhodium—a bright, hard metal from the platinum family—for extra shine and protection. The accent stones are set in a French pavé style, where small v-shaped cuts in the band itself create the prongs holding them.
- Metal: Solid 14K or 18K Gold
- Plating: Rhodium (on white gold options)
- Band Width: Approx. 2 mm
- Setting Style: French pavé with hidden halo
- Accent Diamonds: 40 round brilliant diamonds, 0.79 ct. total weight
- Sold as: Single ring setting (centre stone is selected separately)
This is for someone who wants a classic pavé band but with an unexpected detail. The hidden halo doesn’t change the traditional top-down look of the ring, but from any other angle, it provides a flash of light and a bit of structure that you wouldn't get with a standard setting.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the small diamonds on the French pavé band of my engagement ring fall out easily?
The diamonds in a French pavé setting are quite secure for everyday wear. Each stone is held by small, shared beads of metal cut from the band itself. While any pavé ring requires some care to avoid hard impacts, this is a standard, reliable setting method for small stones.
Is it safe to wear my gold and diamond engagement ring in the shower?
Yes, you can wear your gold and diamond ring in the shower, as water won't harm the materials. However, soaps, oils, and shampoos can build up over time, leaving a film that dulls the diamonds' sparkle. We suggest removing it or cleaning it regularly to keep it bright.
How snug should my new engagement ring fit on my finger?
Your engagement ring should be snug enough that it won’t accidentally fall off, but loose enough to slide over your knuckle with a bit of effort. Your finger size can fluctuate with temperature and time of day, so a good fit allows for slight swelling without becoming too tight.
What happens if I receive my engagement ring and it's not the right size?
We have a 30-day return and exchange policy. If the ring doesn't fit correctly, just email us at returns@vanhess.ca. We’ll send you a prepaid shipping label and help you exchange it for the right size or process a full return if you prefer.
How long does shipping take for an engagement ring to the United States?
Shipping to the US and Canada is free for orders over $60 CAD and usually takes 5-15 business days. For orders shipping to the UK and Europe, we offer free shipping on orders over $110 CAD. A tracking number will be sent as soon as it ships.
