I was drawn to the Deep Blue ring because it was notably different to anything I had seen pounding the pavement around Auckland. I wanted to make sure that my partner had a ring that she wouldn't see for sale in a every shopfront window of every mall she went to. It is truly one of a kind, she is always getting compliments about how unique and beautiful it is. The ring and setting obviously had a lot of design input, being both elegant and robust. My new fiancee is very active and I had to ensure that the ring would fit her lifestyle and she wouldn't feel nervous wearing it. The meticulous craftsmanship was evident when I opened the box, it will certainly stand the tests of time.
Like many people, I would normally be concerned about making a massive financial commitment online without any face-time. I did a lot of research and it became very apparent that 1791 value their brand and commitments. You are always dealing directly with 1791, not a reseller and they monitor the whole transaction with excellent communication and courtesy. My fiancee is ecstatic, as am I. I have no hesitation recommending 1791, you would not be disappointed with their commitment to quality and service.

Wow what an amazing experience with 1791 Diamonds, right from my first inquiry I was treated like the most important customer in the world. I went into the whole adventure knowing nothing about diamonds but 1791 listened to all the ideas I had in my head and turned them into the perfect engagement ring. Not only did they find me the perfect engagement ring, through the whole process their customer service was just amazing and made me feel confident about the whole process.
After my initial contact with 1791 Diamonds I wasn't concerned at all about ordering the ring online, the 1791 website gives a great representation of the rings and I knew 1791 was going to make sure my design had the perfect diamond in it.
They will find and make you the perfect engagement ring and I would recommend to anyone to put your trust in them instead of a high street store. When it arrived and I opened the beautiful presentation box and found that stunning ring sitting inside I could not have been happier.
We will be going straight back to 1791 to get our wedding bands as soon as we set a date!

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!
Deep Blue Diamond Ring Review
Undoubtedly one of my personal favourites from 1791 Diamonds, The Deep Blue tells its own romantic tale.
This contemporary design is original and unique with its channel set princess cut blue sapphires and stunning marquise centre diamond.
The gorgeous channel set blue sapphires perfectly offset the fabulous centre stone and add depth to the design, capturing and holding your attention. The design is reminiscent of the breathtaking alpine environment with crystal clear lakes, stunning mountainous peaks and clear blue skies.
With the marquise diamond set into a recess in the shank and the channel set sapphires the design is graceful yet sleek and unfussy. The beautiful band enhances the purity of the centre diamond.
The Deep Blue is well suited to someone who appreciates beautiful diamonds but prefers diamond engagement rings with an understated elegance rather than bold or elaborate designs. With the diamond and sapphires nestled securely into the ring shank, this style would also suit someone who leads an active or outdoor lifestyle.
