A Singular Natural Diamond

Twenty Carats.
D. VS1.

An oval of this weight, at this colour, at this clarity, surfaces perhaps once in a season. There is one. It leaves here set in a ring drawn for it, and then there is not another.

The Diamond

Twenty point four two carats of colourless natural rough, cut once and cut correctly.

D is the highest colour grade GIA issues. VS1 places the inclusions beyond the reach of the unaided eye and beyond the reach of most trained ones. Together, in an oval spreading 20.81 millimetres across the finger, they describe a diamond that belongs in a vault or on a hand, and nowhere in between.

Polish and symmetry are both graded Excellent. The length to width ratio is 1.38, the proportion the trade reaches for and rarely finds at this weight, because a cutter working a crystal this large is usually defending carat weight rather than outline. This one was not.

The diamond is natural, certified by the Gemological Institute of America, and held under our name. It has not been previously set.

Made To Order

This diamond does not leave our atelier unset.

We are not offering a loose diamond. The figure above is the finished ring: this diamond, and a setting designed around it and around the hand that will wear it, cast in our Los Angeles atelier.

Nothing is selected from a catalogue or modified from a template. A 20.81 millimetre oval dictates its own prong geometry, its own basket depth and its own shank. It is designed in conversation with John Anderson, drafted in CAD, printed in resin so you can live with it on the hand, then cast from scratch by lost wax, set by hand and finished by hand.

Platinum or 18K gold. Every accent diamond we set is natural.
