This ring is a solid curve of light. Three rows of diamonds are set so close together that you see almost no metal, just a continuous surface of sparkle. It’s not just a band with stones; it’s a band made of stones.
You're looking at 138 tiny, round brilliant diamonds covering the top half of a domed band. They're arranged in three offset rows using a French pavé setting, which means the prongs are tiny, v-shaped cuts in the metal itself. This exposes the sides of the diamonds, letting them catch light from all directions. The inside of the ring has a honeycomb gallery, which helps light hit the back of the stones.
We start with a solid band of gold, either 14K or 18K. We use 14K gold (which is 58.3% pure gold) for most of our rings because the added alloys make it strong enough for daily wear. The diamonds are near-colourless (E/F) and have very, very slight inclusions (VVS), which means they're exceptionally bright and clean, even at this small size. Each of the 138 stones is set by hand. The final piece is plated with rhodium for a bright white finish that’s also more resistant to scratches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the inside of my pavé diamond wedding ring have a honeycomb pattern?
The honeycomb pattern, called an azured gallery, allows light to enter from behind the diamonds, which significantly increases their sparkle. It also makes the ring lighter and more comfortable to wear without compromising its structure, and it makes cleaning the back of the stones much easier.
Can I shower or wash my hands while wearing my pavé diamond wedding ring?
Yes, you can wash your hands and shower with this ring on. Water won't harm the gold or diamonds. However, soap, lotions, and oils can build up in the pavé setting, dulling the stones' sparkle. We recommend cleaning it regularly with a soft brush and warm, soapy water to keep it bright.
How will a 4mm wide wedding band feel on my finger?
A 4mm band has a noticeable but comfortable presence. Because wider bands fit more snugly than thinner ones, we often recommend going up a quarter or half size from what you'd wear in a very thin ring. It's substantial enough to wear alone but can also be stacked with some engagement rings.
