Carlotta Round Brilliant Diamond Ring in Platinum 950

Glen O

As I began to delve into the multiple layers of well packaged merchandise I started to feel like I was playing "pass the parcel" at a birthday party!

First the plastic envelope... RIP

Then another layer of plastic wrap... RIP

Then a few layers of bubble-wrap... tossed over my head

Then a big dark blue 1791 box (delicately saved for re-packing purposes)

Then a smaller dark blue 1791 box (again saved for re-packing)

Then a small ring box... which refused to open until I realized it had a tiny (maybe child resistant) lock..

Followed by the Mother Lode! WOW!

Thank you for such a nice piece of art. one that she will never see in a Michael Hill store!

It was so easy using the 1791 online store. The staff were so helpful, they helped me design the perfect ring. The ring arrived on time and it was exactly what I wanted. My fiancee loves the ring, she said yes!

This exquisite diamond engagement ring from 1791 Diamonds is sure to set any heart on fire. Carlotta showcases a magnificent round brilliant diamond for the centre stone with a sophisticated pave setting along the shoulders which follows the curve of the finger beautifully and adds a fabulous sense of opulence to the design.

This is an ultra feminine style of diamond engagement ring. The delicate pave setting is made by fitting diamonds into tapered holes in the metal with some of the surrounding metal then raised to form beads which secure the stones. The effect is like tiny droplets forming two lines of shimmering light to emphasise the lustrous metal of the ring shank while leading the eye to the impressive centre stone.

Round brilliant diamonds make particularly impressive centre stones. The shape was calculated by a mathematician to optimise the amount of light reflected back through its top table face and hence why it sparkles so well; in combination with the pave set diamonds in the Carlotta design, the effect is quite breathtaking.
