A Classic Yellow Gold Engagement Ring with a Modern Starburst Twist
The Alya is a classic engagement ring with a modern twist. A round lab grown diamond sits at the centre, framed by a starburst cluster of smaller lab diamonds along the shoulders. The result is an engagement ring that reads as a brilliant work of art on the finger of any bride.
Crafted in 18k yellow gold, the Alya is one of our most distinctive round diamond cluster engagement rings, offering the sparkle of a halo design with the elegance of a shoulder set solitaire.
A Certified Round Cut Lab Grown Diamond Centre Stone
Every Alya engagement ring is set with a certified round cut lab grown diamond centre stone. Lab grown diamonds are aesthetically and chemically identical to natural mined diamonds. We hand select every diamond for the best in class cut, clarity, colour and lustre.
Each centre lab diamond is graded excellent cut, VS1 clarity and accompanied by a GIA or IGI certificate. Other grades of lab grown diamond are available on request to suit your specification and budget.
The Starburst Cluster Shoulder Set Design
The starburst detail is what makes the Alya unique. A cluster of D/E VS lab diamonds is set across the shoulders in a radiating starburst pattern, framing the centre stone with extra sparkle and adding fire from every angle. The 1.60mm band keeps the design feeling delicate and refined.
The Alya works beautifully as a round cluster engagement ring on its own and pairs with a curved or shaped wedding ring to sit flush against the starburst detail.
18k Yellow Gold for a Vintage Modern Finish
The Alya is set in 18k yellow gold, the warmest of our standard metal options. Yellow gold lends the ring a vintage modern character and lifts the warmth of the lab diamond centre stone.
This piece has been certified in accordance with the Hallmarking Act 1973.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cluster engagement ring?
A cluster engagement ring features multiple stones grouped together to create the impression of a larger centre stone. The Alya is a cluster engagement ring with a single round lab diamond at the centre and a starburst cluster of smaller diamonds across the shoulders.
Are lab grown diamonds real diamonds?
Yes. Lab grown diamonds are aesthetically and chemically identical to natural mined diamonds. The Alya is set with a GIA or IGI certified lab grown diamond at the centre, graded excellent cut and VS1 clarity.
What are the side stones in the Alya engagement ring?
The Alya is set with D/E VS lab diamonds across the shoulders in a starburst cluster setting. The side stones are graded for clarity and colour to match the brilliance of the centre stone.
What is a starburst setting?
A starburst setting arranges smaller stones in a radiating pattern that fans out from the centre, like the rays of a star. The Alya uses a starburst cluster across the shoulders, framing the round centre lab diamond with extra fire from every angle.
What does GIA or IGI certified mean?
GIA and IGI are two of the leading independent diamond grading laboratories. A GIA or IGI certified diamond has been independently assessed for cut, clarity, colour and carat weight, and arrives with a certificate documenting the grading.
