Solitaire Engagement Ring with 1 ct Diamond and Pavé Band in 18K Gold

A 1 carat round brilliant lab-grown diamond above a 22-stone pavé band — the round brilliant at its most complete.

One carat is the threshold that carries weight beyond its measurement — the point at which a round brilliant diamond announces itself with an authority that smaller stones approach but cannot fully achieve. This ring places a 1 carat lab-grown round brilliant diamond above a pavé band set with 22 additional lab-grown diamonds in 18K yellow gold.

At 3.5 grams, the ring is built for the stone it carries. The pavé band provides the transition from the plain shank to the elevated center, the 22 accent stones creating a continuous line of brilliance that leads the eye directly to the 1 carat center.

One carat. Twenty-two in support. The composition, resolved.
