Halo Asscher Cut Engagement Ring with Pave + Wedding Band

Today's gorgeous ring belongs to a bride married in September of 2009. When she got engaged, her fiance presented her with this stunning Asscher diamond in a simple setting, and together they went to a jeweler to reset the setting into something more unique.  We love asscher cuts as they are known to draw the eye to the diamond.  An asscher is a "stepped square cut", often called the "square emerald cut", with trimmed corners like the emerald cut.

 Cut: Asccher

Carat: 1.1 center, 1.5 carats for rest of the ring  (including the band--the ring has diamonds on all three sides). 

Clarity: VVS1.

Jeweler: Chabos

 A Jewelry Story: "For the setting--we wanted to have a lot of light available to come from underneath the diamond, because asschers aren't really sparkly without light.  My fiance felt it was most important to have a really clear view into asscher diamonds (he did a lot of research beforehand).   It was cool--when the jeweler set my stone, he brought me back to his workshop and I got to see him do his thing. I liked the way my fiance handled everything, because I was completely surprised, got a gorgeous diamond, and have the setting I created in my mind."

An Engagement Story: "We spent the day in Tiburon and it was absolutely gorgeous.  We took the ferry back to the city and walked along Embarcadero.  At some point, we decided to sit down in a park and just chat.  He started talking about how amazing our relationship was, and I was in complete agreement, just having a really good conversation.  Suddenly, he was on one knee and transitioned the conversation into a proposal.  I had NO idea this was coming and was 100% shocked!  He had the ring with him the entire day and didn't let on at all.  Somehow, he managed to have an overnight bag packed for both of us, a bottle of Dom Perignon, and a hotel suite at Union Square!  It was a perfect day and an unbelievable evening--I'll never forget how I felt.  I think the most incredible part is how he managed to keep such a big secret from me!  An investigator!  Honestly, it was one of the best three days of my life (our wedding was another, and finding out I was pregnant was the third...you know, our first date ranks up there pretty high, too).  I am guessing that the day I have my baby will turn out to be pretty much number one, soon enough!"
