A solitaire engagement ring features a solitary diamond. It aims to direct almost all attention to the focal stone and is a great choice if you love a timeless, simple, classic design. However, designer Melanie Casey firmly believes that simplicity does not mean lackluster. Each of our solitaire rose cut diamond rings have different design elements that make them exciting and unique. 

The Edifice Ring flaunts a bezel setting as industrial as it is delicate. The romantic Corset Ring includes our most dramatic taper, the height of the hourglass cinch being the thinnest band we offer. If you love the look of a solitaire but want a hint of drama, consider the Steadfast Ring. What looks like a solitaire rose cut diamond ring is actually accented by a basket of hidden diamonds beneath the setting. A solitaire setting will draw attention to a rose cut diamond, particularly its unique faceting and transparency.

Of the mindset that the more diamonds, the better? Engagement rings with side stones bring extra shine to a focal diamond, accenting the band or the setting with small to medium diamonds. For Melanie Casey Fine Jewelry, accent stones are an opportunity to bring weightlessness, evoke an era, or encapsulate a piece of the natural world. 

The gentle chaos of sprinkled accent diamonds in the To A Flame Ring causes the focal rose cut diamond to appear to be pulling the accent diamonds in with gravitational pull. The leveled accents of the Snowdrift Ring look like snow flurries floating along the band. The Luminary Ring features a sculpted halo that looks classically antique in which designer Melanie reimagines the structural prong: a slight tilt creates movement in the setting. Any accented rose cut engagement ring will highlight the luster of your rose cut diamond through contrast. The brilliant accent diamonds' bright sparkle will bring depth and balance to the overall composition of a rose cut engagement ring.

In addition to accent stones, a unique or playful band can add texture, weight, and contrast to a rose cut diamond ring. The Twine Ring uses a twisted band of 14k gold or platinum to add dimension to this three-stone rose cut engagement ring. The Lady’s Slipper Ring features a dramatic taper as the band approaches the focal stone. The taper is embedded with diamond accents, creating a more vintage look. 

The band of the Rose Cut Diamond Waterway Ring is completely enveloped in rose cut diamonds. This rose cut in a pave setting combines the drama of many diamonds with the softness of the rose cut diamond. Unique bands can take an antique rose cut diamond ring to another era, with design elements spanning from whimsical to vintage to nature-inspired to dramatic.

Just like the antique rose cut diamond ring, the bezel set ring is staging a comeback. Designer Melanie Casey loves setting a rose cut diamond in a bezel setting because the metal framework bumps up the contrast between the curves of the stone and its triangular faceting. The bezel setting is also one of the oldest ring settings on Earth! Combining these two historical elements creates opportunities for following tradition and designing with innovation. While the Edifice Ring is the Melanie Casey Fine Jewelry version of a traditional bezel set solitaire, the Pensive Ring takes it a step further. We’ve added our signature weightless accents to either side of the focal stone, creating a whimsical and unique contemporary bezel.
