Unique Engagement Rings "By Filigree"
What distinguishes this collection is the thoughtful integration of craftsmanship with individualized design.
Each By Filigree ring is meticulously created by blending classic elements with unexpected details to produce distinctive pieces.
Sustainable Luxury: The Ethical Choice
Sustainability is the cornerstone of the By Filigree collection. Many pieces incorporate materials from vintage jewelry, giving new purpose to metals and diamonds with history. Our master jewelers carefully extract these elements from antique pieces, preserving their character while incorporating them into contemporary designs.
This meticulous process honors the craftsmanship of previous eras while significantly reducing environmental impact compared to newly mined or lab grown materials.
The Bezel: Modern Minimalism
The bezel setting embodies contemporary design principles with clean lines and architectural sensibility. By surrounding the diamond with a sleek metal rim, this style creates a seamless transition between stone and band, resulting in a refined aesthetic that appeals to those who appreciate modern elegance.
The smooth, uninterrupted surface highlights the center stone while creating a sophisticated silhouette that feels distinctly modern.
The Solitaire: Refined Simplicity
The solitaire setting epitomizes timelessness—one exquisite diamond set on a carefully crafted band. In its purest form, this design celebrates the diamond's inherent beauty without distraction, allowing light to enter and reflect from all angles.
Our solitaire rings range from whisper-thin bands that make the diamond appear to float on the finger to more substantial, sculptural designs that make bold statements. Some feature subtle texture variations—hand-hammered finishes, milgrain detailing, or gentle tapering toward the stone—while others maintain pristine, polished simplicity.
The Three-Stone: Symbolic Significance
Three-stone engagement rings represent the journey of a relationship—past, present, and future intertwined in a single meaningful design. This classic configuration balances the visual weight of multiple stones while creating a narrative through their arrangement. Traditionally, the center stone is larger, flanked by two smaller diamonds that complement and enhance its brilliance without overwhelming it.
For those who connect with the meaningful representation of a relationship's journey, a By Filigree three-stone ring offers both emotional significance and enduring beauty.
Geometric Diamonds: Architectual Precision
The By Filigree collection features several geometric diamond cuts that appeal to those with an appreciation for structural design. Kite-shaped diamonds present sleek, elongated proportions with dramatic points that create a bold silhouette on the hand. Lozenge cuts, with their perfect rhombus shape, offer a distinctive alternative to traditional diamonds while maintaining elegant symmetry. Shield cuts combine straight edges with subtle curves, creating a sophisticated profile that draws inspiration from historical royal jewels while feeling thoroughly contemporary.
Salt & Pepper Diamonds: Natural Character
Salt and pepper diamonds celebrate the unique inclusions naturally present in these stones. Unlike traditional diamond grading that prioritizes clarity, these distinctive gems showcase a sophisticated array of black, white, and gray inclusions that create captivating internal landscapes.
Each stone displays its own distinct pattern—from subtle scattered specks to bold, dramatic markings—resulting in truly one-of-a-kind pieces that can never be replicated. These diamonds appeal to those who appreciate natural variation and authenticity.
Refined Traditional Cuts
For those who prefer classic diamond shapes, the By Filigree collection offers exceptionally crafted traditional cuts that honor time-honored design principles while incorporating subtle contemporary elements. We approach these familiar silhouettes with meticulous attention to proportion, symmetry, and faceting, understanding that true mastery lies in perfecting the classics rather than merely reproducing them.
The By Filigree approach emphasizes clean lines and refined proportions that allow these timeless shapes to feel simultaneously classic and current.
Heritage-Inspired Cuts: Old European & Old Mine Cut
Before modern precision-cutting techniques, diamonds were shaped by hand, resulting in softer facets and a warm, romantic appearance.
Old European cuts feature a high crown, small table, and a distinctive circular outline with a subtle glow rather than the brilliant sparkle of modern cuts. Old Mine cuts, with their squarish silhouette and rounded corners, offer an even more distinctive antique character with facets that catch light in gentle, unexpected ways.
Elongated Silhouettes: Oval, Pear, and Marquise
Oval, pear, and marquise cuts create a visually lengthening effect on the finger while offering substantial sparkle.
The oval diamond, with its symmetrical curved outline, provides the fire and brilliance of a round diamond but in a more distinctive elongated form.
Pear-shaped diamonds blend the best of round and marquise cuts, with one rounded end tapering to a delicate point, creating a teardrop silhouette that appears both soft and dramatic.
The marquise cut, with its pointed ends and boat-like shape, maximizes carat weight while its slender profile creates the illusion of greater size and elegance.
These elongated cuts allow for creative orientation options—an east-west setting (horizontal) creates a completely different aesthetic than the traditional north-south (vertical) placement.
