The band isn't just a solid line of metal. It's set with small diamonds in a French pavé style, which carves away V-shaped grooves so you see more of the stone from the side and less of the prongs holding it in.
A large, pear-cut diamond is the centrepiece, held securely by prongs. It’s encircled by a continuous halo of small, round brilliant diamonds that trace its teardrop shape. The band is thin, about 2 mm, and is set with 45 more round diamonds that extend halfway down each side. The lower half of the band is smooth, polished metal with a bright, silvery-white finish.
We make this ring in your choice of solid 14K or 18K gold. 14K gold is 58.3% pure gold mixed with alloys for strength, which means it stands up well to daily wear. 18K gold is 75% pure gold, giving it a slightly richer colour. The entire ring is then plated with rhodium, a hard, platinum-group metal. This provides a bright white surface and an extra layer of scratch resistance. You can select either a natural or a lab-grown centre diamond.

People often choose this design when they want the presence of a larger ring without a thick, heavy band. The halo visually expands the centre stone, but the 2 mm band keeps the ring feeling light and proportional on the finger. It has a significant look without feeling bulky.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the small diamonds on the French pavé band of my engagement ring fall out easily?
It's unlikely for the diamonds to fall out with normal wear. The French pavé setting uses small prongs and beads of metal to secure each of the 45 small stones. We inspect every setting before it leaves our studio, but it's always a good idea to have it checked annually.
Is it safe to shower while wearing my gold and diamond engagement ring?
Yes, you can shower with it on, as water won't harm the gold or diamonds. However, we recommend removing it, because soaps and lotions can build up behind the settings and under the halo. This film dulls the stones' sparkle and requires more frequent cleaning to remove.
How should my new engagement ring fit on my finger?
Your ring should be snug enough that it won't fall off, but loose enough to slide over your knuckle with some gentle turning. It shouldn't spin freely or feel uncomfortably tight. Remember that finger size can swell or shrink with temperature, so check the fit at different times of the day.
What happens if I order the wrong size for my engagement ring?
You can return the ring within 30 days of receipt for a different size or a full refund. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we will send you a prepaid shipping label. The ring must be in its original, unworn condition to be eligible for a return.
How long does free shipping to the US take for a Vanhess engagement ring?
Free shipping on qualifying orders typically takes 5-15 business days to arrive in the United States and Canada. We offer free shipping on orders over $60 CAD to CA/US and over $110 CAD to the UK/EU. You'll receive an email with a tracking number once it ships.
