What this ring is made of

Emerald
A rectangular step cut with long, straight facets. It flashes light in broad bands rather than sparkling, and it shows clarity clearly, so the quality of the stone matters more than with a brilliant cut.
Paired prongs
Each corner is held by two claws instead of one. It looks more architectural and gives the corners extra protection.
Hidden halo
A ring of small diamonds set under the center stone, visible from the side but not from above. From the top it looks like a plain solitaire.
Cathedral shoulders
Arches rise from the band to cradle the stone, lifting it and framing it from the side. They add height, so check how the ring sits against a glove or a coat sleeve.
Platinum
Platinum is naturally white, dense and hard-wearing, and it does not need replating. It costs more than white gold and picks up a soft, frosted patina over time that some people love and others polish away.
