Buying from 1791Diamonds online was very easy and straight-forward. It made organising an engagement ring at the last minute (as my original jeweler fell through) while doing a fly in fly out a possibility. The staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. They did everything possible to get me my engagement ring on time. Once I had received the ring it was a happy response. 1791 were only too happy to receive the ring back through the post for a re-size. This was a process that was suprisingly quick and it was sent straight back to me. All in all, 1791 were a delight to deal with and went out of their way to make an already very exciting time just that little bit easier.

As I began to delve into the multiple layers of well packaged merchandise I started to feel like I was playing "pass the parcel" at a birthday party!
First the plastic envelope... RIP
Then another layer of plastic wrap... RIP
Then a few layers of bubble-wrap... tossed over my head
Then a big dark blue 1791 box (delicately saved for re-packing purposes)
Then a smaller dark blue 1791 box (again saved for re-packing)
Then a small ring box... which refused to open until I realized it had a tiny (maybe child resistant) lock..
Followed by the Mother Lode! WOW!
Thank you for such a nice piece of art. one that she will never see in a Michael Hill store!
Carmen Diamond Ring Review
The Carmen diamond engagement ring from 1791 Diamonds is a contemporary style multi-stone ring. The elegant rub over setting complements the gorgeous centre stone while the side stones wrapped around the ring shank enhance the glamorous look.
For those who favour a modern style of ring, the Carmen design will appeal on many levels. The round brilliant diamond has long been a favourite for diamond rings; it has the fantastic brilliance that we expect from the most romantic of gem stones, the diamond. A more traditional design would have the stone in a claw setting; however, the Carmen uses the rub-over setting creating a bolder, sleek look.
An added advantage of the rub-over setting is that the diamond is held securely in place and has better protection from being knocked while also preventing dust and grime building up on the stone to dull its lovely sparkle. For the modern woman who leads an active lifestyle, yet enjoys wearing beautiful jewellery the Carmen is the perfect choice.
