Dreaming of the most classic proposal ring of all? Our round diamond engagement ring is exactly that. A brilliant 2.00ct round lab grown diamond takes centre stage in a secure four claw setting, lifted by a hidden halo of tiny diamonds beneath, while a pave band of sparkling stones runs along the shoulders in bright 18ct white gold. So all the light falls on that glorious round centre, with extra fire glinting from below and along the band. To be completely clear, every diamond here is a lab grown diamond, a real diamond with the same beauty and sparkle as a mined one, simply made in a smarter, more affordable way. Timeless, dazzling, and beautifully made, this is the ring that makes the answer an easy yes.
Why is the round brilliant so loved? Its sparkle. The round brilliant is cut with 57 or 58 perfectly angled facets, engineered to reflect the most light possible, so it is the most fiery, dazzling diamond shape there is. At 2.00ct this centre has real presence, and it grades E in colour and VVS2 in clarity, so it is exceptionally white and beautifully clean. The hidden halo tucked beneath the stone adds a secret sparkle from the side, the pave band frames it with more fire, and the whole thing is a modern take on a timeless classic. As a result, the ring dazzles from every angle.
We craft this round diamond engagement ring in 18ct white gold and set every lab grown diamond by hand. The 2.00ct centre and the 30 accent diamonds are all lab grown, real diamonds matched for colour and sparkle. So you get a large, top grade diamond, real gold, and remarkable value.
