Every solitaire below is made to order in my Queens workshop in solid 14K gold, with platinum on request. Choose your shape from round, oval, princess, cushion, emerald cut, pear, or marquise, then prong or bezel and your band width. I build it to your size in 7–10 business days.

Low Dome Emerald Cut Solitaire Engagement Ring
A ring built around a single center diamond, with no halo and no side stones competing for attention. The band can be plain gold or carry small pavé accents and still count as a solitaire, because the center stone remains the only focal point.
The elongated shapes. At 1ct, a marquise runs about 10mm long, a pear and an oval about 8mm, against 6.5mm for a round. If you want the most visible diamond for the weight, start with oval, pear, or marquise. If you want the most sparkle, start with round.
Prongs let more light into the diamond and show more of the stone, which is why they are the classic choice. A bezel wraps the edge in a thin rim of gold, so nothing snags and nothing chips, which makes it the better pick for nurses, climbers, and anyone hard on their hands.
A 1.5mm or 2mm band makes the center stone look larger by contrast, and it is the most requested width I make. From 2.5mm up, the band feels more substantial and holds its shape better over decades of wear. If you want the delicate look, see the thin band collection.
Only if the proportions are wrong. A well-cut stone in a well-proportioned setting reads as confident, not plain. If you want detail without losing the solitaire look, a hidden halo or a cathedral shoulder adds interest from the side while keeping the top view clean.
A solitaire is the easiest style to pair. With a low setting, a straight band sits flush with no gap. Because both rings are made to order, I size them together so they meet cleanly from day one.
