A solitaire is the most enduring engagement ring shape there is — one stone, set high enough for light to enter the pavilion and return as fire and brilliance, on a band that stays out of the way of the diamond. It's the ring that looks right in 2026 and will still look right in 2056.
Because the design is almost entirely about the diamond. There are no fashionable filigree details to look out of style, no setting styles tied to a decade, and no extra stones to need maintenance. A well-cut solitaire from 2025 looks indistinguishable from one made in 1965 — and that's exactly the point.
We make solitaires in four-claw (the most classic, lifts the stone for maximum light entry), six-claw (more secure, slightly less light), bezel-set (the most secure option — the metal wraps around the girdle of the stone, popular for active wearers), and tension-set (the diamond appears to float between two metal arms). Speak to us about which works best for your lifestyle and finger shape.
Round brilliants are the most popular solitaire stone (they return the most light of any cut), followed by ovals (which appear up to 10% larger than a round of the same carat weight), cushions (a soft, romantic shape with vintage feel), and emerald cuts (architectural, clean lines, for someone who prefers flashes of light to continuous sparkle).
Want something not shown here? Our bespoke service can render any solitaire variation in 48 hours — a tapered shank, a knife-edge band, a hidden halo of pavé. No charge for design revisions.
