This 1.69 CT round lab-grown diamond crossover split-shank ring features a round brilliant center stone secured in a prong configuration designed to stabilize the girdle perimeter while maintaining open access for both vertical and lateral light entry. The center diamond is elevated above the band, allowing the crossover structure to pass beneath without interfering with the stone’s pavilion.
The 18K gold band divides into two arms that intersect in a crossover pattern before joining the central prong assembly. Each arm follows a controlled curve with aligned angles to preserve symmetry across the top view. The crossover is engineered so both arms maintain identical thickness and curvature as they approach the center setting, ensuring balanced structural support.
Round lab-grown accent diamonds are positioned along the upper section of each arm. These diamonds are placed in micro-prong seats arranged at calibrated intervals to maintain consistent spacing and uniform height. The accent layout transitions smoothly through the crossover intersection and continues toward the lower portion of the band, preserving alignment throughout the design.
Open galleries beneath the round center stone and beneath the crossover section allow measured light flow, supporting consistent optical performance across the center and accent diamonds. The underside of the band remains smooth and uninterrupted to provide stability and wearing comfort.
All diamonds used in the ring are lab-grown and graded under standardized criteria for color, clarity, and cut.
The 1.69 CT total weight includes the round center diamond and all accent diamonds placed along both arms of the crossover split-shank structure.
