The side stones on this ring aren't just an accent; they're graduated, getting smaller as they flow down the band from the centre diamond. It's a small detail that creates a tapering effect, drawing your eye right back to the main stone every time.
A large, round brilliant-cut diamond sits at the centre, held securely by four prongs. The band is lined with five more round diamonds on each side, which gradually decrease in size as they flow away from the centre stone. The shared-prong setting for these side stones is open, which lets you see more of each diamond and allows light to enter from all sides. The band itself is smooth, polished, and about 2 mm wide.
We make this ring in your choice of solid 14K or 18K gold. 14K gold is 58.3% pure gold, mixed with alloys for durability, which makes it a great choice for a ring you'll wear every day. Our white gold is plated with rhodium, a member of the platinum family, which gives the ring its bright, silvery-white colour and adds a layer of scratch resistance. The diamonds, whether natural or lab-grown, are E/F colour and VVS clarity, meaning they are colourless and exceptionally clean to the naked eye.

You'd choose this ring if you want more than a simple solitaire but find a standard pavé band too busy. The five graduated diamonds on each side give the ring a substantial, brilliant look from every angle. It's a design that feels both classic and very generous with its sparkle.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do the side diamonds on this engagement ring get smaller down the band?
The side diamonds are graduated in size to create a tapering effect. This design choice draws the eye inward, emphasizing the size and brilliance of the centre stone. It also allows the ring to have a bold look on top while maintaining a comfortable, slimmer profile at the base of your finger.
Can I shower or wash my hands while wearing this diamond engagement ring?
Yes, you can wash your hands or shower with this ring on, as water won't harm the gold or the diamonds. However, soaps, lotions, and everyday grime can build up behind the stones and dull their sparkle. We recommend cleaning it regularly with a soft brush and gentle soap to keep it looking its best.
Does the 2mm band on this engagement ring feel too thin or fragile?
A 2mm band is a popular choice that feels delicate but is structurally sound for daily wear, especially in 14K gold. It provides a great balance, making the diamonds on top appear larger while still being strong enough for a lifetime. If you work with your hands, it's a good, comfortable width.
What happens if I order this engagement ring and it doesn't fit or I change my mind?

Will I have to pay for shipping if I order this engagement ring to the United States?
