{"product_id":"emerald-rounded-parallel-ring","title":"Natural Diamond Emerald Rounded Parallel Ring - 1ct","description":"\u003cp\u003eArchitectural in its composition and refined in every detail, the Step Parallel Ring is a contemporary interpretation of the classic emerald-cut diamond ring. Its strong linear geometry is softened by hand craftsmanship, creating a piece that feels both sculptural and effortless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt its centre sits a beautifully proportioned 1ct emerald-cut diamond, chosen for its exceptional clarity and elegant step-cut facets. Unlike brilliant-cut diamonds, emerald cuts are prized for their broad, mirror-like reflections. Their long, parallel facets create a mesmerising hall-of-mirrors effect, revealing the diamond's internal purity and rewarding exceptional colour and clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe diamond is held within our line-end setting, where clean horizontal bars frame the stone without overpowering it. The result is a setting that feels structural and balanced, allowing the crisp geometry of the emerald cut to remain the focal point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design continues into a distinctive split 18ct yellow gold band, handcrafted with a heavily textured finish that contrasts beautifully against the bright reflections of the diamond. Four flush-set white diamonds are symmetrically positioned across the parallel bands, introducing subtle points of light while reinforcing the ring's linear rhythm. The warm richness of 18ct gold enhances the crisp whiteness of the central diamond, creating a striking balance between softness and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is individually handmade in our London workshop using recycled 18ct gold, with each surface carefully finished by hand. The Step Parallel Ring is a celebration of proportion, construction and material, designed to be admired from every angle and made to be worn for a lifetime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis design can also be commissioned as a bespoke piece with alternative diamond sizes, coloured gemstones or precious metals. Please contact us to discuss a custom commission.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shimell and Madden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58328999592320,"sku":null,"price":7000.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0190\/3238\/files\/Natural-Diamond-Step-Parallel-Ring-front.jpg?v=1782381879","url":"https:\/\/www.shimellandmadden.com\/products\/emerald-rounded-parallel-ring","provider":"Shimell and Madden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
