About this rubies & diamonds pave set diagonal stripe ring
Alternating ruby and diamond detail follows the diagonal stripe, bringing colour and brilliance to a solid handmade gold ring. David Ashton handmakes each ring individually in his London workshop, combining careful proportions with everyday comfort and lasting durability.
Gemstone quality
We select our natural rubies for their rich, even colour, clarity and cut. Their depth of red is balanced by brightness and life.
All diamonds and gemstones used are natural. Unless specifically stated otherwise, we select all our natural diamonds to our house standard of D/E colour, VVS clarity and Triple Excellent cut, polish and symmetry. This exceptional quality gives our diamonds outstanding brightness, fire and scintillation.
You can also read our ruby buyer’s guide for more about choosing natural rubies.
Construction and everyday wear
The stones sit in a solid precious-metal band rather than drilling open holes beneath them. This retains more metal and strength in the ring and removes open recesses where soap, lotions and dirt can collect, helping the stones stay cleaner while keeping the surface smooth for everyday wear.
Gemstone expertise
David and Nicola have both studied with the Gemmological Association of Great Britain (Gem-A) and successfully passed the Diamond Diploma, gaining the DGA qualification. Their training supports the technical and aesthetic guidance they give when comparing natural stones.
For independent information on how cut influences brilliance, fire and scintillation, see the GIA guide to diamond cut.
Responsible materials
Our precious-metal bullion is 100% recycled and responsibly sourced. You can read about the wider standards behind responsible precious-metal sourcing through the LBMA Responsible Sourcing Programme.

Make it yours
David can make a ring thats truly unique, and perfectly yours. Designed to be worn without compromise.
