Custom Flanders-cut Diamond Ring






Three Flanders Brilliant cut diamonds are set in this beautiful hand-crafted ring. The Flanders cut was invented in 1983 creating an exceptionally brilliant eight-sided diamond. The cut features 61 facets exactingly positioned for maximum brilliance and symmetry. The ring is crafted in platinum.

The brilliance of the Flanders cut diamonds beautifully complements with the cool white of the platinum ring, which is based on our Platinum Promise design.
In our Platinum Promise rings we set the gemstones with tapered prongs that gently sweep upward and outward. The setting reminds us of the opening petals of a blossoming flower. The result is a beautiful, flowing arrangement of diamonds elegantly resting within the graceful setting.
As a surprise, we set two Fancy Violet diamonds between the upper and lower galleries of the center setting. We call these secret diamonds "Hidden Treasures!"
The band of the ring was formed by bringing together two platinum wires creating a double rib. The inside of the band was then polished smooth leaving the rounded contours of the two platinum wires visible on the outside. The shoulders of the band narrow as they sweep upward towards the diamonds. This creates an elegant band that is both graceful and sturdy.
The inside of the ring is as beautifully crafted as the outside. Note the smooth, flowing bridge work beneath the diamonds. The inner surfaces of the ring are beautifully polished and the edges slightly rounded to create a comfortable fit.
