A classic design that stands the test of time. Simple, yet elegant. Crafted in precious platinum and showcasing a very fine emerald cut diamond and flanked by tapered baguette cut diamonds.

The center diamond is nearly a full carat at .96ct. We pulled the diamond and sent it to GIA for a diamond lab report. It is a D color (the best there is!) and VS2 clarity. An emerald cut diamond is "step cut". You can see the facets decending on the diamond much like steps.

The side diamonds are also step cut, but do not have cut corners, so they are considered baguette cut. These are estimated at .10ct each, for a total weight of .20ctw. They are very nice, in the D-F color range and VS1-VS2.

Most finer pieces of white metal jewelry made during this time period, and earlier, were made in platinum, rather than white gold. Why? Platinum is a precious metal that is naturally white. Unlike gold, which is yellow, then bleached with nickel to give it a "white-ish" color, then rhodium plated to make it look platinum color. But the rhodium plating wears away. Platinum will never yellow. It is 90-95% pure, so it's hypo-allergenic.

NOTE: This ring also has a matching diamond wedding band. Make it a set! The wedding band fits nicely next to the engagement ring. Crafted in platinum with three baguette diamonds. Estimated total weight of .22ctw. Only $695. Let us know if you would like to add this to your order.

My husband & I have been using Yates jewlers for well over 10 years. And they have always been fair priced. Staff is always curtious & helpful. We will continue to use Yates always ❤

If you have a favorite piece of jewelry and it needs repair Yates is the place to go. The customer service and goldsmith work are both stellar.Thank you !

We loved working with Ashton, she was very helpful and our rings are very beautiful!

We ordered a custom wedding band for my fiancé and had a great experience from start to finish! They were super helpful and checked in with us all throughout the process. We had a very specific vision in mind for the ring and they made it very easy to create exactly what we were looking for. It didn’t take long to receive the ring once we placed the order. They even shipped it to us with a hand written card thanking us for our business which was really sweet!
