Solitaire Gallery · By Metal & Cut

Nine cuts, two metals — see them side by side.

Every ring shown below is a clean prong-set solitaire with a 2 carat, VS1 clarity lab-grown diamond as the example stone, so you can compare shape and silhouette without the metal or carat weight changing underneath you. Pick the metal she leans toward, then notice how each cut sits on the finger.

Reference imagery only. Actual stone face-up size, color saturation, and inclusion location vary stone-to-stone — your concierge will source three real stones at this 2 ct / VS1 target for her side-by-side review.

Warm, on-trend, the 2026 favorite

Nine yellow gold solitaire engagement rings arranged in a three-by-three grid showing round brilliant, oval, marquise, cushion, emerald, pear, princess, radiant, and asscher cut lab-grown diamonds, each set as a clean four- or six-prong solitaire

What you’re looking at

A one-line read on each cut so you can shortlist the two or three shapes that feel the most “her” before your concierge sources matching stones.

  • Round Brilliant

    The benchmark — most fire and brilliance per carat.

  • Oval

    Faces up larger than a round of the same weight; flatters the finger.

  • Marquise

    Pointed silhouette; the longest face-up of any cut for its weight.

  • Cushion

    Soft square with rounded corners; warm, romantic sparkle.

  • Emerald

    Step-cut hall-of-mirrors flashes; clarity grade matters most here.

  • Pear

    Teardrop — point worn toward the fingertip elongates the hand.

  • Princess

    Sharp square; modern, geometric, brilliant-cut sparkle.

  • Radiant

    Cropped corners with brilliant facets; durable everyday option.

  • Asscher

    Octagonal step-cut; vintage Art Deco geometry.

Ready to see her three on a real hand?

Tell your concierge the two or three cuts that caught your eye and which metal she keeps reaching for. We’ll source three live stones at the 2 ct / VS1 target shown here (or adjust to your budget) and stage them in the same setting so the only thing changing is the shape.
