One-of-a-kind! A beautiful and understated take on a Solitaire engagement ring. The organic setting allows the hexagonal faceted Salt and Pepper Diamond to take the spotlight.
Our lovely customer wanted a rustic style engagement ring and he knew for certain it had to have some granulation detailing as his parter is a huge fam of this!
The beautiful stone was 'Melt-Set' into a gold bezel. This unique setting technique is perfect for the rustic style our customer was after and one we love here at MM, although a tricky technique and risky at times.
To create this setting we hollowed out a divot in a charcoal block to place a bezel tubing in, we then balanced the stone (a diamond in this case) just inside the bezel tube and heat to melting temperature until the gold contracts around the stone. A fine line between over heating and melting, and getting it just right to secure the stone.
