Stone Details — Lab Diamond, DEF Color, VS/VVS Clarity

The 2.50 carat cushion cut center stone is a lab-created diamond — chemically, physically, and optically identical to a mined diamond, grown in a controlled environment at a fraction of the cost of an equivalent natural stone. DEF color sits at the very top of the color scale — colorless to near-colorless — meaning this diamond faces up brilliantly white with no visible warmth or tint. VS/VVS clarity means inclusions are either very slight or practically non-existent without magnification, ensuring a clean, bright appearance from every angle. The cushion cut's rounded corners and large facets maximize the diamond's natural fire and brilliance, giving it a soft, romantic sparkle that has made it one of the most requested engagement ring shapes for decades.

The Setting — Split-Shank with Hidden Prong Diamonds

The split-shank design divides the band into two strands as it approaches the center stone, framing the cushion cut diamond and creating a sense of depth and dimension on the finger. What makes this ring particularly special is the hidden prong diamonds — 0.76 carats of accent stones set into the shank itself, visible from the side and catching light from angles that a standard solitaire cannot. The result is a ring that sparkles continuously from every direction. The 4mm band provides excellent structural integrity while maintaining a refined, feminine profile, and the 14kt yellow gold setting brings warmth that beautifully complements the bright white of the DEF-color diamonds.
