Monarch Round Diamond Engagement Ring R836-3

From above it reads as a straightforward solitaire with an 18k yellow gold smooth band, four prongs and a three-carat round brilliant center. The marquise hidden halo beneath the crown and the light-channeling opening in the shank are details that exist for the diamond rather than the eye. The kind of engagement ring someone chooses because they found the stone first and wanted nothing to compete with it.
