18ct rose gold emerald cut engagement rings, handmade to order by our family workshop in the Cotswolds and set with a diamond you choose yourself. The emerald cut is a long, step-cut diamond with clean lines and broad flashes of light, for an elegant, Art Deco look. 18ct rose gold has a soft, romantic pink colour that flatters every skin tone and gives a classic design a modern feel.
The emerald cut diamond
The emerald cut uses long, flat step facets instead of the brilliant facets of a round. Rather than sparkle, it gives broad flashes of light and a clear "hall of mirrors" look into the stone. Its long shape and cut corners give a quiet, elegant ring that looks larger than its weight.
Why 18ct rose gold?
18ct rose gold is 75% pure gold, warmed to a soft pink by a little copper in the alloy. It is not plated, so the colour never wears off, and it is slightly harder than yellow gold. Some of our rose gold designs set the diamond in a white platinum head for the whitest look, with the pink band around it. For a lower price, see our 9ct rose gold engagement rings.
Choosing your emerald diamond
The open step facets show more of the inside of the stone, so clarity matters more than on a round: VS2 or better is a safe choice. A ratio of 1.30 to 1.50 gives the classic shape. The cut corners protect the stone, so it is a practical choice for everyday wear.
Choose your own diamond
Every ring is set with a centre diamond you choose yourself, natural or lab-grown, from our live stock. Each stone has its grading report, and the ring page shows the finished price before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions
VS2 or better is a safe choice. Step-cut facets are open and flat, so inclusions are easier to see than in a brilliant-cut diamond. Check the stone's photos before you choose.
No. The colour comes from the copper in the alloy, all the way through the metal, so there is no plating to wear off. If anything, rose gold warms slightly with age.
