1791 created the perfect engagement ring for me to propose with; and without ever meeting a single one of their team face to face! From the first moment I saw their website I was confident that they could do exactly what I wanted, even though I didn't know quite what that was at the time. Alice took time to understand the look and feel of what I wanted and quickly came up with concepts that were beautifully tailored to suit. Discussing my chosen design with her later, I couldn't even find any changes I wanted to make. After some much needed help on getting the right diamond and ring size (thanks Ardouin), my design was crafted into the perfect ring. The team at 1791 even disguised the packaging to ensure it remained a surprise right until the last moment. And of course she said yes!

There are very few times in life where your breath is taken away by the magical situation you find yourself in. To be presented with the proposal and the most stunning ring at the top of the Eiffel Tower was more than any woman to ever dream of. Now wearing this beautifully crafted ring, I look at it as a mark of my love and enduring commitment to Rob.
I must say its simplicity, sparkle and style is just divine. This will continue to captivate my beating heart every time I see it glimmer in the sunshine.
Carmen Diamond Ring Review
The Carmen diamond engagement ring from 1791 Diamonds is a contemporary style multi-stone ring. The elegant rub over setting complements the gorgeous centre stone while the side stones wrapped around the ring shank enhance the glamorous look.
For those who favour a modern style of ring, the Carmen design will appeal on many levels. The round brilliant diamond has long been a favourite for diamond rings; it has the fantastic brilliance that we expect from the most romantic of gem stones, the diamond. A more traditional design would have the stone in a claw setting; however, the Carmen uses the rub-over setting creating a bolder, sleek look.
An added advantage of the rub-over setting is that the diamond is held securely in place and has better protection from being knocked while also preventing dust and grime building up on the stone to dull its lovely sparkle. For the modern woman who leads an active lifestyle, yet enjoys wearing beautiful jewellery the Carmen is the perfect choice.
