The Union

A brilliant oval diamond is secured by four delicate claw prongs within an open basket and a compass setting, mounted on a solid 14k gold split-shank band. The two rounded wires of the shank elegantly converge at the center, framing the diamond's sparkling facets.

• Band Width: Tapers from 3mm to 2mm
• Setting Length: Approx. 14mm, varies by carat weight
• Setting Height: Sits flush to the band (5mm from the bottom of the band)
• Total Carats: 2-3

Pairs best with the Union, Arched Wedding Band and the Slim, Gold Curving Wedding Band.
