This beautiful ring is a romantic way to recognize an engagement, anniversary, or any other special occasion.

The classic style consists of a platinum band with a gorgeous round-cut solitaire diamond acting as its centerpiece.

The diamond is held above the band in a 4-prong setting and has a 1/2 carat total weight. The platinum band has a high polish finish and a comfortable fit.

This diamond has great brilliance and sparkle. Unlike the promotional quality offered by many retailers, which often have visible inclusions and opaque or yellow-brown color, this diamond is near colorless, with a minimum color rating of I, and appear white to the eye.

It has a clarity rating of at least I1, meaning there are small inclusions that are difficult to see with the unaided eye.

The cut, proportions, and symmetry of the diamond--characteristics which determine their brilliance--is fair to good.

Most of the light that enters through the table, or top facet, of the diamond will reflect back out, creating the deep brightness, or brilliance, that gives diamonds their special appeal.

The table percentage for this diamond, meaning the width of the table compared to the diamond’s total width, is 50-71%, and the depth percentage, or total height of the diamond compared to its total width, is 56.5-67%.

Optimal table and depth percentages maximize a diamond’s ability to reflect and refract light, but they also require a great deal of the diamond to be cut away, leaving less carat weight.

While the table and depth percentages here span a broader range than those of higher quality diamonds, they still allow the diamond to handle the light well, and they have the advantage of providing the largest size of diamond for the value.
