The band on this ring is interesting. The small diamonds are set in a French pavé style, which means we cut little 'V' shapes into the gold. It exposes more of each diamond, so the whole top half of the ring sparkles, not just the centre stone.

The centre stone is a square, princess-cut diamond, held high in a classic four-prong setting. The band itself is slim and polished. Eighteen small, round diamonds are set into the shoulders using a French pavé technique, creating little V-shaped windows for light. This diamond setting stops halfway down the band, leaving the bottom half smooth and comfortable against your other fingers. The metal has the bright, cool white finish of rhodium.

We make this ring in your choice of solid 14K or 18K gold. We often recommend 14K gold for rings, as its blend of 58.3% pure gold with stronger alloys makes it very durable for daily wear. The ring is then plated with rhodium—a hard, silvery-white metal from the platinum family. This plating is what gives white gold its ultra-bright finish and protects it from scuffs. The centre stone can be a natural or lab-grown diamond, and the 18 accent diamonds are all set by hand.

People choose this ring when they want the sparkle of a diamond band without the fuss. Because the pavé diamonds only go halfway around, the bottom of the ring is smooth metal. This makes it more comfortable, less likely to snag on sweaters, and much easier for a jeweller to resize in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the corners on a princess-cut diamond engagement ring prone to chipping?

Yes, the sharp corners of a princess-cut diamond can be vulnerable points. That’s why on this ring, we protect each of the four corners with a sturdy metal prong. This design shields the most delicate parts of the diamond from accidental bumps and snags during everyday wear, securing the stone.

Can I shower while wearing my French pavé diamond ring?

We recommend taking your French pavé diamond ring off before showering. Soaps, shampoos, and lotions can build up a film over the diamonds and underneath the setting, which dulls their sparkle. This buildup can be difficult to clean at home, especially from the small crevices of a pavé band.

How is a half-pavé engagement ring like this one resized?

This half-pavé ring can be resized, but there are limits. Because the top half has diamonds set into it, a jeweller can only work with the plain, solid gold bottom half. We can typically adjust the size up or down by one or two sizes. Any more than that risks distorting the ring's shape.

What happens if I need to return my engagement ring?

You can return your engagement ring within 30 days of purchase for a full refund, as long as it's in its original, unworn condition. To start the process, just email us at returns@vanhess.ca. We'll send you a prepaid shipping label and instructions to make it easy.

How long does shipping take for a gold ring to the United States?

Shipping to the United States is free for orders over $60 CAD and typically takes between 5 and 15 business days to arrive. Once your order is dispatched from our Coquitlam studio, you'll receive a tracking number so you can follow its journey to your door.
