Modern diamond solitaire in platinum
£26,000
A spectacular modern diamond solitaire, handcrafted in solid platinum and centred with a certificated 1.5ct brilliant-cut natural white diamond.

Three further rows of black and white natural diamonds continue around the solid handmade platinum band for exceptional sparkle from every angle.
Smooth, secure and comfortable for everyday wear, the claw-free design also stacks beautifully with wedding or eternity rings. The design can be personalised with a centre diamond from 0.20ct upwards, with or without additional diamonds, and made in platinum, 18ct yellow gold or 18ct rose gold.
Further Details
Modern diamond solitaire in platinum
Contemporary, distinctive and designed to be worn, this modern diamond solitaire combines a certificated 1.5ct brilliant-cut natural white diamond with fine black and white natural diamonds and solid handmade platinum.
David rub-over sets the 1.5ct centre diamond in solid platinum. He then pavé sets three rows of fine black and white natural diamonds around it to form a dramatic halo. The solid handmade platinum band continues the design with three rows of fine black and white natural diamonds set evenly around the ring. Shown here, it stacks perfectly against two platinum rings set with fine brilliant-cut natural white diamonds.
Designed for everyday wear
A rub-over setting has no exposed claws to catch or snag. Instead, the platinum surrounds and protects the centre diamond, creating a smooth, secure setting that is exceptionally comfortable to wear. The design also helps protect the diamond from everyday knocks and dirt, so it remains easier to keep beautifully clean.
David makes the bands solid rather than drilling through beneath the settings. This gives the ring greater strength and also helps prevent lotions and soap collecting beneath the stones, where they can dull their appearance or irritate the skin.
Natural diamonds, individually selected
David Ashton uses natural diamonds selected for their colour, clarity and cut, with particular attention to the qualities that create beautiful brilliance, fire and scintillation. Discover more about choosing natural diamonds in our diamond guide.
Gemstones are a lifetime passion for David and Nicola. Both studied at the internationally recognised Gem-A and hold the prestigious DGA qualification. We are always happy to show you a selection of loose diamonds and gemstones while explaining both the technical and aesthetic differences.
Made especially for you
This ring makes a wonderfully individual engagement ring and stacks beautifully with wedding or eternity rings. Because David handcrafts each ring individually in London, the design can be adapted to suit you.
The centre diamond can be selected from 0.20ct upwards, with or without the additional flush-set diamonds. The ring can also be made in platinum, 18ct yellow gold or 18ct rose gold, with different gemstone combinations as desired. Similar variations can be explored in platinum and 18ct rose gold.
