Evolution of a Diamond & Platinum Ring

Diamond ring custom made in platinum. Center stone is 3.01 carat, side stones are 0.65 carat each.



 
The new ring shank before its final fitting. The crossing platinum wires create a seat for the stones while the vertical wires are used as prongs to hold all the diamonds in place.   The wirework is finished. Our ring shank is forged and fitted to create a support for the assembled settings.



Top view of the finished ring:  eight prongs securely hold the center diamond in place.   Side view: the corners of the side stones are each fitted into two of the main prongs while the third points are set in platinum sheet corner claws.
