Platinum 950 Antique Style Ring Setting
A custom made ring setting that reads like a love letter, designed to cradle a sapphire, a ruby, an emerald, or the gemstone of your heart. Choose from 14K rose gold, 18K rose gold, 14K white gold, 18K white gold, 14K yellow gold, 18K yellow gold, Platinum 950, or elegant two tone combinations in white and yellow gold in 14K or 18K. The design style marries accent stones with an antique whisper, combining the sparkle of straight baguette side diamonds with a vintage inspired silhouette, creating a piece that feels both timeless and uniquely yours. Picture a center stone lifted on slender prongs within a low, open gallery, while a procession of baguette diamonds marches along each shoulder, catching light like windows opening to a sunrise. The accent stones style places smaller gemstones around and beside the central gem, enhancing its color and fire, adding extra facets of brilliance so every turn of the hand becomes an unfolding moment of light.
Imagine the ring close to your skin, the warm glow of rose gold against a wrist, the brisk clarity of white gold framing a deep blue sapphire, the sunny halo of yellow gold warming a glowing ruby, or the noble cool of Platinum 950 supporting an emerald with quiet strength. The baguette diamonds are cut straight and clean, their linear geometry forming elegant steps that lead the eye to the heart of the ring. In the antique influence, subtle milgrain or carved shoulders can be added as a soft bead of history, the accent stones arranged to feel like petals surrounding a bloom. The design balances geometry and romance, the baguettes lending architectural grace to the romantic center, while carefully chosen metal tones harmonize with the center stone to intensify color and presence. Each small diamond is set to sing with the center, a chorus of light that elevates the focal gem without stealing its solo.
This setting is crafted with resizing in mind, so the story you begin today can adapt as your life evolves. The shank is engineered as a continuous full band, with the baguette diamonds set in secure straight channels or individual bars at the shoulders, leaving the lower half of the band free for adjustment. When a size change is needed, a skilled jeweler can resize by adding or removing metal from the underside of the shank away from the side stones, then reflowing and polishing the band to preserve the original contour. The prong structure that holds the center stone is anchored to a reinforced gallery to maintain rigidity and alignment through modest resizing, and the baguette settings are designed with slight spacing and solid metal supports so they remain stable when the band is altered within the recommended range. For larger changes beyond a couple of sizes, we gently remove the side stones as a precaution, resize the band, and then reset and inspect each baguette and the center stone so structural integrity and aesthetic balance are fully preserved. Techniques such as precise soldering, laser joining, and hand finishing are used to ensure the metal grain and antique details are restored seamlessly. Because this is a custom made setting, we tailor the internal supports, prong thickness, and gallery braces to the chosen metal and center stone, so whether your ring is in 14K rose gold or Platinum 950, the piece is engineered to remain beautiful and true as it is resized.
This ring is a promise in material form, a setting that honors the center stone while surrounding it with a chorus of baguette diamonds and the warmth of your chosen metal, a setting that can be gently altered to meet the changing seasons of life, without losing its soul or strength. Choose your metal, choose your center gemstone, and let us craft the antique inspired accent stone setting that will grow with you, hand finished and carefully constructed to keep every prong, every baguette, and every curve as secure and lovely as the moment you first slipped it on.
