Right from my first enquiry, the 1791 team impressed me with their care for detail and willingness to go to extra effort to provide quality service. I am living overseas but wanted a New Zealand made engagement ring for my Fiance. Ardouin from Customer Services organised the shipping and tackled the challenging French customs systems to get the ring safely across to the other side of the world. When it arrived it was perfectly crafted and beautifully designed. I needed to resize the ring and again Ardouin organised everything for the ring to be resized in Europe by a trusted jeweller. Throughout the entire process comunication was fantastic, even across so many timezones, and I felt completely at ease that the ring was safe. My fiance loves the ring and we will be in touch again soon to choose our wedding bands from 1791.

1791 Team, Thank you to all your staff for their excellent service and advice through out our interaction. From my first query to the order process, customer service and delivery, I have been highly impressed at the level of service provided to myself from your team. The end result was an effortless and worry-less experience. I would highly recommend to anyone purchasing a ring to give 1791 Diamonds an email and let them assist you in your efforts. Their designs and customer service are first rate. I thank 1791 for all the effort and time they have spent in making my choice and decision on a ring as informed and smooth as possible. Although they are an online company, you will receive the very best customer service and support throughout the entire process. They take a genuine and honest interest in their customers needs and situation. If anyone would like confirmation of my experiences i am more than happy to write them individual testimonials.

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.
