About this diamond rub-over set in yellow gold on a platinumring
Warm yellow gold surrounds the centre diamond while platinum and two shoulder diamonds give the ring a crisp contemporary contrast. David Ashton handmakes each ring individually in his London workshop, combining careful proportions with everyday comfort and lasting durability.
Gemstone quality
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.
Construction and everyday wear
David favours rub-over settings because the smooth precious-metal rim securely holds the centre stone without projecting claws to catch on clothing or hair. The construction also reduces places where dirt, soap and lotions can collect, helping the stone stay cleaner and making the setting comfortable and virtually maintenance-free for everyday life.
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.
