Asscher Diamond Ring Platinum 950 | Jasmine

Gene and Sue

From the day I made first contact with 1791 the amazing ladies in their team were with me in my journey to the day I proposed. They provided me excellent service that resulted to me being a so-called 'well-informed' when it comes to diamonds. Looking back, they made the whole process so easy.

Sue absolutely loves the ring which by the way I had to take out of the box several times just to admire from the time I picked it up at The Collection to the time I finally popped the question on the first day of our holiday.

We are planning to tie the knot towards the third quarter of 2016 and 1791 will definitely be top of the list for the matching wedding bands.

Thank you very much 1791 Diamonds for the excellent service and product you have shared with us.

1791 created the perfect engagement ring for me to propose with; and without ever meeting a single one of their team face to face! From the first moment I saw their website I was confident that they could do exactly what I wanted, even though I didn't know quite what that was at the time. Alice took time to understand the look and feel of what I wanted and quickly came up with concepts that were beautifully tailored to suit. Discussing my chosen design with her later, I couldn't even find any changes I wanted to make. After some much needed help on getting the right diamond and ring size (thanks Ardouin), my design was crafted into the perfect ring. The team at 1791 even disguised the packaging to ensure it remained a surprise right until the last moment. And of course she said yes!

The Jasmine Diamond Ring is a solitaire engagement ring with a difference; rather than the traditional round brilliant diamond, the Jasmine design features an elegant Asscher diamond. The Asscher diamond works well in a solitaire design, with its unusual shape there is no need for any additional embellishments to catch the eye.

The Asscher stone has a very distinctive shape; it is a square cut with deeply cut corners, a high crown and small table, resembling an octagon. Asscher cut diamond engagement rings, with their many facets, have more fire and brilliance, or sparkle, than many other styles which make them the perfect choice for a solitaire diamond ring. As an added advantage, the Asscher's shape can make the diamond appear larger than it really is.

The Jasmine design also features an unusual setting, adding to the sophisticated look. The diamond is held with four prongs, which is quite normal in a solitaire ring; however, the metal of the ring shank sweeps upwards hugging the diamond on each side to look a little like a bar-setting.

The Jasmine Diamond Ring is an exquisite design combining the simple sophistication of the solitaire with the fancy cut of the Asscher diamond.
