Embrace by Trouvaille Diamond Crown Semi-Mount for Round Center

She picked up her cousin's new ring at Thanksgiving and turned it under the kitchen light. Then she pressed her thumbnail against the prongs. Not a word yet about how it looked.

You've watched her do this before: check the setting before she compliments the stone. She wants proof it holds, not just proof it shines. Embrace gives her that proof first. Forty-four round diamonds, G-H color, VS1 clarity, set low and close along the crown and the shank, none of them perched high enough to catch on a sleeve. The head is built to hold a stone of about a carat, whichever one you choose for her. What she'll actually stop on is the line of it: how flat the white gold sits against her hand, how it catches light without asking for attention.

This is a semi-mount engagement setting in polished 14-karat white gold, from the Embrace collection, with a traditional shank. The round diamond crown head is built to hold a center stone of about 1 carat, chosen and set separately. Twenty round diamonds, G-H color, VS1 clarity, accent the shank at 0.23 carat total weight. Twenty-four round diamonds, G-H color, VS1 clarity, set the crown at 0.08 carat total weight.

She only has to say yes once. This setting is built so she never has to check it again.
