The four prongs lift the round diamond completely clear of the band. This lets light enter from every direction—the sides and bottom, not just the top—which is what makes a well-set stone so active and bright as you move your hand.
This ring is built around a single, 0.31-carat round brilliant-cut diamond. It’s held in a classic four-prong basket setting with smooth, rounded tips. The band itself is solid, polished platinum with a comfortable half-round profile. It keeps a consistent width before tapering slightly right where it joins the setting, drawing your eye straight to the stone. There are no other stones or engravings.
We cast this ring in PT900 platinum. That's 90% pure platinum, which means it has a noticeable heft and density when you hold it. Because platinum is naturally a silvery-white metal, the colour is permanent and won't ever need to be replated to maintain its brightness. It's also exceptionally pure and nickel-free, which makes it one of the safest metals for anyone with sensitive skin. The centre stone is a natural, earth-mined diamond.

People pick this design when they want the most classic version of a solitaire. The proportions are balanced—the 0.31-carat diamond is the clear focus, set on a simple, sturdy band that’s comfortable enough for constant wear. It’s just the stone and the setting.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the prongs on this platinum solitaire ring snag on my clothes?
The prongs are designed to be smooth and are rounded at the tips to minimize snagging on clothing. However, any prong-set ring can catch on delicate knits if pulled. We always recommend being mindful when wearing it and having the prongs checked by a jeweller annually to ensure they're secure.
Can I shower or wash my hands while wearing my platinum and diamond ring?
Yes, you can safely wash your hands or shower with your platinum and diamond ring. Water and mild soap will not harm either material and will actually help clean off daily oils. Just be sure to rinse it well and avoid any harsh chemicals, lotions, or abrasive scrubs.
How should a solitaire engagement ring like this one fit my finger?
A solitaire ring should slide over your knuckle with only slight resistance and then sit securely at the base of your finger. It shouldn't spin freely or feel constricting. Your finger size can fluctuate with temperature, so it's best to try it on when you feel comfortable, not too hot or cold.
