1 Row Prong Diamond Ring

The piece

Half a carat of round natural diamond in a single prong-set row across 18K yellow gold, 3.40 grams. One row is the format that gets dismissed and shouldn't be. There is nowhere to hide: no side stones drawing the eye, no pave filling the shank, just a line of diamonds that either sits straight or doesn't. Prongs rather than channel keeps light coming in from underneath, which is what separates a single row that reads bright from one that reads flat. More across our women's collection .
