Platinum Prong-Set Engagement Ring Setting with Round Sidestones (5/8 cttw)
This stunning platinum cathedral setting has a timeless beauty and grace. Two round-cut diamond side stones, with a total weight of 5/8 carat, surround your center diamond. These are exceptional quality diamonds. With a color rating of G-H, they are in the uppermost range of near colorless and appear dazzling white to the eye. They have a clarity of VS2 to SI1, meaning there are very small inclusions that are difficult to see under 10x magnification, and impossible to see with the unaided eye. The side stone diamonds are featured in three-prong basket settings, designed to hold them securely while minimizing the amount of metal interference. Raised slightly above the band in a cathedral design, they benefit from an abundant filtering of light through their facets.
The ring itself is crafted from gleaming platinum with a rich polished sheen. The band tapers at the shoulders where it meets the side stones. It has slightly rounded edges and a tapered thickness in back for comfort. Platinum, a metal 35 times rarer than gold, is exceptionally durable and will not wear away over time; this makes it particularly well suited to holding precious gemstones. Because of its purity (platinum is 95% pure), it is hypoallergenic and ideal for people with sensitive skin. Platinum's rich sheen is the perfect complement to a diamond's cool sparkle.
A custom jeweler will be able to resize this ring. It is a normal process to then tighten the settings to ensure the stability of your gemstones.
