Marquise Diamond Ring Platinum 950 | Aura

Claire M

I have just received my second ring from 1791 diamonds, the first being my engagement ring and the second, my wedding band.

When making a decision about purchasing from an unseen online shop, the dubious feelings can arise, especially when gold and diamonds are involved. However, in both instances I have been extremely happy with the service provided and the end result receiving my stunning rings.

1791 Diamonds provide an excellent customer service and I always felt that I was an important and valued customer (no matter what your budget is). The jewellery is exquisite and I often compare my diamond to others in high street shops and none compare to the beautiful sparkle I have from my 1791 diamond. 1791 staff kept me in the loop via email with every step of process and the delivery service is safe and secure - I never ever had to follow up! The whole experience is managed so incredibly well, thats why I am a returning customer. I personally encourage you to buy your special piece with 1791, you will not be disappointed.

My husband was also blown away by how beautiful my set looks on my hand and I get lots of compliments.. ring number 3? Its definitely on the cards

As with any purchase over the internet there is always some anxiety as to the finished product but any fears disappeared the moment I opened the box.

The Aura ring showcases the unique qualities of the marquise diamond. This cut is said to have been commissioned by Louis XIV to commemorate the smile of his beloved Marquise de Pompadour, and it certainly adds a note of distinction to the Aura design.

The distinctive shape of the marquise diamond offers a stunning alternative to the traditional diamond shapes. It is an impressive looking stone and with its pointed edges at each end can often appear a larger carat weight than it is due, which can certainly be an advantage for the buyer. Its elongated shape is particularly suited to someone with slender fingers.

In the Aura design the marquise diamond is held in place in a Bezel setting. While this holds the diamond securely in place it can seem quite a plain setting. The sublime bead set rose gold wires entwined around the top of the ring band add a more decorative aspect to the Aura design.

The delicate colors of the rose gold wires and the champagne side stones blend beautifully and add warmth to this exquisite design.
