SOLITAIRE
MOISSANITE RINGS

A solitaire ring is built around one primary centre stone, with the surrounding setting kept intentionally restrained. This clean construction allows the cut, proportions and craftsmanship of the centre setting to define the ring, giving solitaire designs their quietly enduring character.

A solitaire keeps one centre stone as the clear focal point. Halo rings frame the centre with smaller stones, while three-stone and five-stone designs introduce additional gemstones across the finger. Solitaires tend to feel more visually restrained, whereas multi-stone settings create greater coverage and detail.

Round, oval, pear, emerald, marquise, cushion, radiant, princess and Asscher cuts can all be beautifully interpreted in a solitaire setting. Softer curves create a more fluid impression, while step cuts and angular shapes bring a cleaner, more architectural presence.

Solitaire engagement rings pair naturally with plain, pavé and curved wedding bands. The most harmonious fit depends on the height and profile of the centre setting, as well as whether you prefer the bands to sit closely together or leave a subtle space between them.

Yes, when the centre stone is securely set and the ring is cared for appropriately. Avoid heavy impact and harsh chemicals, and periodically check the prongs for movement. When the ring is not being worn, storing it separately in its STDIAM walnut wood box can help protect it from knocks and contact with other jewelry.

Begin with an accurate finger measurement and consider the width of the band when choosing your size. Finger size can vary slightly throughout the day, so measuring more than once can be helpful. For step-by-step instructions and international conversions, see the STDIAM Ring Size Guide.
