Solitaire Diamond Rings in 18K Gold

Solitaire Diamond Rings in 18K Gold

A solitaire ring has one diamond as the hero of the design. Nothing distracts from the stone, so its size, cut and brilliance matter most. That is why solitaires remain the first choice for engagements, anniversaries and milestone gifts.

Every solitaire here holds an IGI certified lab grown diamond set in 18K gold, from about half a carat to over 3 carats. Pair one with a band from our eternity band rings or see more in lab grown diamond engagement rings.

Solitaire Settings Explained

Four and six prong settings

Thin metal claws hold the diamond high, so light enters from every side. Six prongs add security for larger stones.

Hidden halo and accent band settings

A small ring of diamonds under the centre stone or along the shank adds sparkle when seen from the side while keeping a clean solitaire look from above.

Bezel settings

A slim rim of gold wraps the diamond. It protects the girdle and suits active, everyday wear.

Choosing Your Solitaire

• Cut first: a well-cut round diamond shows the most fire and brilliance.
• Clarity: we recommend VVS1 or VVS2 for a stone that looks clean and bright.
• Carat: lab grown costs almost 90% less than natural, so you can choose a larger stone for the same budget.
• Gold: 18K gold has a rich colour and holds prongs firmly.

Why Lab Grown Diamonds Are the Smarter Choice

Lab grown diamonds are real diamonds. They have the same carbon crystal structure, the same hardness of 10 on the Mohs scale and the same fire and brilliance as mined diamonds. They cost almost 90% less than natural diamonds of the same grade, so your budget buys a bigger, finer stone. For a clean, bright look we recommend VVS1 or VVS2 clarity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a lab grown solitaire a real diamond?

Yes. A lab grown diamond is pure carbon with the same crystal structure, hardness and sparkle as a mined diamond. Each one is graded and certified by IGI.

What carat weight should I choose for an engagement ring?

Most of our customers choose between 1 and 2 carats. With lab grown pricing, many move up to 2 or 3 carats for the budget they planned for a smaller natural stone.

Can I change the setting or gold colour?

Yes. Most solitaire designs can be made in yellow, white or rose gold and adjusted to your ring size. Made-to-order pieces are ready in 15 to 20 days.
