There is a reason antique jewelry set colorless diamonds in yellow gold: nothing makes a D color stone look icier than warm metal around it. This oval lab diamond engagement ring pairs an IGI certified 6 × 8 mm center — about 1.25 carats, D color, VVS clarity — with delicate leaf detailing in solid yellow gold, a contrast that reads heirloom from the first glance.
Top-of-the-Scale Quality, Independently Graded
Most engagement ring budgets force a compromise somewhere on the 4Cs. This stone doesn’t: D is the highest color grade a diamond can hold, and VVS clarity means inclusions so faint that even a grader with a loupe has to hunt for them. Because it is grown above ground rather than mined, that top-tier combination arrives at a fraction of the mined-equivalent price — and it is still every bit a real diamond, with the full Mohs 10 hardness.
Every center stone is IGI certified and ships with its certificate of authenticity and a unique serial number, so the grade is documented by an independent laboratory rather than taken on trust. Curious about long-term worth? Our honest take on whether lab-grown diamonds hold value covers what certification does — and doesn’t — guarantee.
The Warm-Metal, Ice-Stone Contrast
Yellow gold deepens by contrast everything a colorless diamond does well. Against the warm band, the D color oval looks brighter and whiter than it would in a cool setting, while the brilliant faceting scatters light across the leaf-lined shoulders. The delicate botanical detailing — leaves unfurling along a slender 1.7 mm band — ties the piece to our leaf rings family and the broader world of nature-inspired engagement rings, where symbolism does as much work as sparkle: growth, renewal, a love still putting out new leaves.
Solid Yellow Gold, Chosen by Karat
Each ring is handcrafted in solid yellow gold — gold all the way through, never plated or gold-filled — in the karat you select:
- 10K yellow gold — the most durable and most affordable option.
- 14K yellow gold — the classic best-seller, balancing everyday strength with rich color.
- 18K yellow gold — the highest gold content and the deepest, warmest hue.
The 10K vs 14K vs 18K comparison guide lays out the trade-offs, and our yellow gold jewelry collection shows the metal across other designs. White or rose gold versions are available on request.
An Ethical Stone With Papers to Prove It
Lab-grown diamonds are created in controlled conditions, so origin is fully traceable and conflict-free — no mining supply chain, no ambiguity. The unique serial number ties your exact stone to its IGI report.

Sizing & Care
Choose your size and karat from the drop-down menus — half and quarter sizes included. If you are unsure, the ring size guide walks you through measuring at home; note that sizing can vary slightly between jewelers’ tools, so double-checking is worth two minutes.
A diamond cannot be scratched by daily life, so upkeep is minimal: warm water, mild dish soap, a soft brush, and a lint-free cloth. Solid gold needs nothing more than the same bath — see our guide to caring for gold jewelry for the full routine.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a real diamond?
Yes. A lab-grown diamond is a real diamond — the identical carbon crystal, Mohs 10 hardness, and brilliance of a mined stone. It is not a simulant or substitute; only its origin differs.
What does the IGI certification cover?
The International Gemological Institute independently grades the diamond’s cut, color, clarity, and carat weight. Your stone ships with its certificate of authenticity and a unique serial number tying the report to that exact diamond.
How good are D color and VVS clarity, really?
D is the top of the entire diamond color scale — fully colorless — and VVS means inclusions are nearly invisible even under 10x magnification. In a mined diamond this combination commands a dramatic premium; growing the stone makes it attainable.
What are the center stone’s measurements?
The oval center measures approximately 6.0 x 8.0 mm and weighs about 1.25 carats. Because each diamond is individually cut, carat weight may vary slightly.
Why set a colorless diamond in yellow gold?
Contrast. Against a warm yellow band, a D color diamond reads even icier and brighter than it does in a cool-toned setting — a pairing borrowed from antique jewelry that has come roaring back into style.
Which karat of yellow gold should I pick?
10K is the hardest and most affordable; 14K is the best-selling balance of durability and color; 18K carries the most gold and the deepest warmth. All three are solid gold with permanent color.
Is the gold solid or plated?
Solid, in every karat. The color runs through the entire band, will never wear away, and will not turn your skin green.
Are the accent stones diamonds as well?
Yes — the accents are lab-grown diamonds, so every point of sparkle on the ring is genuine diamond.
Do lab-grown diamonds test as diamonds?
Yes. Because they are chemically identical to mined diamonds, they read as diamond on standard testers — unlike simulants such as cubic zirconia.
Is the wedding band in the photos included?
No. This listing is for the engagement ring only; the ruby leaf wedding band pictured alongside it is sold separately.
Can I personalize this ring?
Yes. Complimentary engraving of up to 16 characters is included, and alternative gemstones or gold colors are available on request — contact us for a custom quote.
How long until my ring ships?
Each ring is handcrafted to order — please allow 3–5 weeks for production. Custom modifications may extend the timeline. US shipping is free.
How should I clean it at home?
Warm water, a drop of mild dish soap, and a soft toothbrush — work gently around the leaf detailing — then rinse and dry with a lint-free cloth. A monthly wash keeps the diamond at full brightness.
✨ Production time
Every ring on this page is cast, set and finished for your order. Nothing is taken from stock.

🌍 International
We ship worldwide with DHL. Live rates for your address are calculated at checkout — usually DHL Express Worldwide, with DHL eCommerce Parcel Standard also offered to some destinations as a slower, lower-cost option.

Every order ships fully insured and requires a signature. Full details on our Shipping & Delivery page.
Engraving is cut into the inside of the band, so it stays between the two of you.
AVAILABILITY
Engraving is offered on most — though not all — designs. If it is available for this ring, an engraving field appears with the options above.
CHARACTER LIMITS
Limits depend on the width and design of the band. Spaces count toward the total.

FONT AND SYMBOLS
Standard engraving is complimentary and set in Arial, chosen because it stays legible at very small sizes. These symbols are included at no extra cost:

Very fine or highly detailed artwork may not suit narrow or delicate bands — we will tell you before we proceed rather than after.

Frequently Asked Questions
Every ring on this page is made in solid gold or platinum — never plated, never gold-filled. Solid gold comes in 10K, 14K and 18K across yellow, white and rose; our platinum is 95% pure, naturally hypoallergenic, and white the whole way through. Available metals vary by design and are listed in the selector above. Our Precious Metal Guide explains how each one wears.
Side by side and brand new, the two look almost identical. The difference shows up over years of wear.
White gold is a gold alloy finished with rhodium for brightness. It sits lighter on the hand and costs less, and the rhodium finish is refreshed every few years to keep it crisp.
Platinum is white all the way through, so there is no finish to renew. It is around 40% denser — noticeably weightier — and over time develops a soft matte patina that many people prefer. It can be polished back to a high shine whenever you like.
Our Platinum vs Gold guide compares durability, cost and upkeep in full.
Solid gold is gold throughout — alloyed for strength, but the same metal at the surface as at the core. Gold vermeil is sterling silver with a layer of gold applied over it, which thins with wear and needs replating to stay bright. Rings on this page are solid gold or platinum only. Our Precious Metal Guide sets out where each makes sense.
Neither tarnishes. Gold and platinum are two of the most stable metals used in fine jewelry, and both hold their color indefinitely. Platinum does develop a satin patina as it is worn — that is surface texture rather than damage, and it polishes out at any time. Warm water, mild soap and a soft brush is all either metal asks for; see our Jewelry Care Guide.
Nothing on this page is pulled from a shelf. Each solid gold and platinum ring is cast, set and finished for your order, which takes 3 to 6 weeks depending on the design — pavé settings, custom sizing and engraving sit at the longer end. Shipping is added once your ring is finished, and paying for faster shipping speeds up transit only — it does not shorten production. Full timings are on our Shipping & Delivery page.
Use the Size Chart linked beside the Add to Bag button, or our full Ring Size Chart. Because these rings are made to order, we cut your size from the start rather than resizing a stock band — so measure carefully. Your first resizing is free if it is still not right. Most designs can be adjusted, though eternity bands and rings with stones set the whole way around usually cannot.
On most designs, yes — if engraving is available for this ring, a text field appears with the options above. Standard engraving is complimentary: up to 16 characters on women’s rings and 25 on men’s, set in Arial, with a small selection of symbols included. Custom fonts and symbols are $25 and are arranged before you order. See the Engraving page for what is possible. Engraved rings are final sale.
Returns and exchanges are accepted within 14 days of delivery on unworn rings in original condition. Because solid gold and platinum rings are made to order, they are subject to a restocking fee, and engraved pieces are final sale. Full terms are on our Returns & Refunds page. Every ring is also covered by our lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
