"Empire" Art Deco Sapphire engagement ring

Art Deco Sapphire, originally uploaded by rmrayner.

Ring design "Empire". Art Deco for the 21st century.

A real challenge this one... all the stones needed to be specially cut to be the right shape. 1.85ct sapphire and 0.60cts diamond ring set in 18ct white gold

This ring was designed to match the glamour of the Art Deco era that it was inspired by, but with state-of-the-art computer aided design to make sure the stones were cut exactly. The renders from the new software are so good that you might be forgiven for being fooling inot believing them the real thing!
