Classic Prong Solitaire

As jewelers, we have spent a lot of time making and considering classic four prong settings. This design is the culmination of hundreds of rings we've worked on to beautifully showcase an heirloom diamond. The antique inspired claw shaped prongs are slightly shortened for a modern proportion to the center stone. The 2.5mm band is our favorite high-dome bombé profile that balances a substantial feeling weight and a delicate top profile. The basket is composed of clean lines, and sits just above the band for a perfect stack.  This style is ideal for round diamonds that are between .25 and 2cts.  Pictured with a ~1ct round Old European Cut diamond.
