VIOLA
Oval Lab Diamond 18k Yellow Gold Shoulder Set

The Viola Yellow Gold Oval Engagement Ring with Diamond Shoulders

The Viola is an elegant and feminine 18k yellow gold engagement ring featuring a stunning oval cut lab diamond solitaire, perfectly complemented by a dazzling pavé setting of G/H SI conflict-free natural diamonds on each shoulder. The centre lab diamond is expertly raised with a 4 prong setting, ensuring every expertly cut facet of the stone captures the light and reflects the true brilliance and fire of the centre.

The Viola is one of our most loved oval shoulder set engagement rings, and it offers the sparkle of a halo design with the elegance of a true solitaire.

A Certified Oval Lab Grown Diamond Centre Stone

Every Viola engagement ring is set with a certified oval cut lab grown diamond at the centre. 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.

A Dazzling Pavé Diamond Shoulder Set

The Viola pairs the centre lab diamond with a dazzling pavé of G/H SI conflict-free natural diamonds running along both shoulders of the band. The pavé set diamonds catch the light from every angle and frame the centre stone with extra fire, adding a subtle halo effect without the halo setting itself.

The 4 prong setting raises the centre stone above the shoulders so the light enters the diamond from every facet, while the 1.70mm to 2.20mm band width scales with the centre stone size to keep the proportions of the ring balanced.

18k Yellow Gold for an Oval Shoulder Set Engagement Ring

The Viola is crafted in 18k yellow gold, the warmest of our standard metal options. Yellow gold lifts the warmth of the centre lab diamond and gives the pavé shoulder detail a quiet warmth that catches the light beautifully. The Viola is also wedding ring friendly to most standard wedding bands.

This piece has been certified in accordance with the Hallmarking Act 1973.
