Esme Square Emerald Shape Classic Engagement Ring in 18K Yellow Gold

The Esme Asscher engagement ring cradles an asscher-cut center diamond in a squared cushion-shaped frame of smooth polished metal, a sculptural surround that echoes a halo in gold or platinum rather than diamonds for a bold, modern look.

On either side the band sweeps up into open polished loops before splitting into a clean shank, creating airy negative space that catches light and frames the center stone. The whole design is high-polish metal with no halo stones or accents, so the center diamond stands completely on its own. Available in round, cushion, emerald, Asscher, marquise, oval and princess center shapes.
