Common Questions

1. How does a Western style solitaire differ in perceived size compared to a halo setting?

A solitary diamond appears larger because the eye focuses on one stone, while a halo adds surrounding gems that spread brilliance but can make the central stone feel slightly reduced.

2. What price range should I expect for an 18‑carat gold band paired with a 1.0‑carat VS1 diamond?

The combination typically falls between $8,000 and $12,000, depending on cut quality, certification, and any bespoke engraving.

3. Will the ring maintain its fire after years of daily wear?

High‑grade gold alloys resist abrasion, and a well‑cut diamond retains scintillation; routine professional cleaning every 12‑18 months preserves peak brilliance.
