1.71 GIA Pear Step Cut Diamond Engagement Ring 14k

This 14 karat yellow gold solitaire holds a GIA-certified 1.71 carat modified pear step cut diamond in a bezel setting positioned at a slight angle on a 3.6mm flat edge band.

The modified pear step cut creates a hall-of-mirrors effect through its rectangular facets, showing the diamond's body color more clearly than brilliant cuts while producing flashes of light rather than scattered sparkle.

At U-V color, the diamond has a strong yellow-brown tint that's immediately noticeable—this falls into the "light yellow" or "fancy light yellow" range where the color becomes a deliberate feature rather than a flaw. VS1 clarity means any inclusions are extremely difficult to spot even under magnification, representing exceptional clarity.

The bezel setting wraps metal around the diamond's edge for security and a clean look, while the angled positioning adds an unconventional element to the traditional solitaire. Filigree detailing decorates the band, and the flat edge profile provides clean lines and comfortable wear.
