Resetting: From Square to Octagon

Jonathan’s wife had lost a small Diamond in her engagement ring, so instead of just repairing it, he took the opportunity to refresh the whole ring. He wanted to change the ring into a beautiful long lasting design, while keeping the squarish feel of the original. Through a thoughtful diamond resetting, we added more corners to the surrounding ‘halo’ to give it edges while keeping the clean look of the Diamond-set band.
