I had something specific in mind for my wife to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary, and 1791 couldn't have made it easier. I told Designer Alice roughly what I was after and within a day I had a beautiful rendered image of the ring design sitting on my desktop that you could have sworn was a photo of the real thing. So from idea to reality in about 48 hours, not bad! We were easily able to make a couple of small design tweaks, and the result was stunning. Right through the process from design to the paperwork afterwards was a pleasure and I would highly recommend 1791 to anyone looking for value for money and an outstanding result. I know my wife loved it :)

As with any purchase over the internet there is always some anxiety as to the finished product but any fears disappeared the moment I opened the box.
Alba Diamond Ring Review
For those looking for something a little different in diamond engagement rings, Alba offers a contemporary and striking design. Featuring the distinctive shape and deep cut corners of an asscher cut diamond for the centre stone, the effect is quite dramatic.
Asscher cut diamonds, with their many facets, have more fire and brilliance than many other cuts and seem to draw the eye into the depth of the stone, creating an almost hypnotic effect. In the Alba design, the sparkling centre stone, in a rub over setting, is complemented by round brilliant accent stones wrapped around the ring's band. There is no doubt that this ring is designed to catch the eye.
Although asscher diamonds are not a traditional choice for diamond engagement rings, they are certainly strikingly beautiful. The Alba diamond engagement ring is stylish and sophisticated and will suit the modern lady who enjoys making an impression.
The Alba design is from 1791 Diamonds' Modena Collection and is available in 18kt yellow gold, 18kt white gold or platinum.
