Eimy came to the bench as a single engagement ring. A french-set halo holding a 0.50 carat natural diamond, with forty four round diamonds running through the halo and down the shoulders, 0.94 carat in all. One and a half carats of light, on a band narrow enough to disappear on the hand.

Before the wedding I suggested something to her husband. A matching band, shaped to hold the engagement ring rather than sit beside it, and a diamond set into it for every child they would have. He ordered the first one. A year later he came back for the second band on the other side, and for the first diamond.

Today they have three children and three diamonds.

Choose above whether you are ordering the engagement ring or a matching band. Most people start the way this couple did. The engagement ring first, a band later, the diamonds when there is something to mark.

The engagement ring

Metal: 18K or 14K white gold
Center stone: 0.50 CT natural diamond
Halo and shoulders: 44 round brilliant diamonds, 0.94 CT total
Total carat weight: 1.44 CT
Carved in wax and cast by hand in our Jerusalem studio

The matching band

The band is contoured to sit against the engagement ring rather than beside it, and is priced individually. Order one for a single side, or two to close the ring from both. Each band arrives unset, so it stays open for whatever comes. Setting diamonds into it, one at a time or all at once, is quoted separately.

How it is made

The halo is french-set, which means each diamond is held in a cut-out rather than a bead, so light passes through the metal from the side as well as the top. It is slower to make and it is the reason the ring reads as bright rather than heavy. Every piece is carved in wax and cast in the studio. Made to order, allow 3 to 4 weeks.

Other options

The prices above are for the ring as shown, with a 0.50 CT center diamond. A larger center stone, a lab grown diamond, a colored gemstone, or yellow or rose gold are all possible and quoted individually. Write to us and we will price it before anything is made.
