I knew what I wanted, but the more I searched the more I realised the right ring for me was not going to be at just any jewellers.
So my search changed to ring designers and makers. I found but a few and proceeded to email them all. I acquired emails in return that all seemed to say the same thing, unlike the phone call I received from 1791 Diamond Engagement Rings one day at work.
My vague and somewhat hurried description was taken and amazingly an email was waiting for me as I got home. There it was, the ring I had only seen in my terribly drawn pictures, exactly how I imagined. I was sold. One day later the centre diamond was chosen and within a month the ring had been made and delivered to my door just as I had been informed that it would be.
I found the people at 1791 prompt, punctual, helpful and above all they mirrored the significance of the ring with the quality of their service.
I couldn't put a price on the smile I see each and every time my fiancee puts her engagement ring on her finger.

I just wanted to give a big thank you for all the work on the ring - it looked even better than I thought it would and my now fiancee loved it!!! The timing was pretty incredible too, as I had planned to go ahead and propose on friday night, without a ring (controversially!) but then to have the ring finished early and literally hours in before the deed was great! So thanks Alice for all your work on the ring and everyone for being cheerful and helpful and encouraging throughout, I appreciate it all!
Carlotta Diamond Ring Review
This exquisite diamond engagement ring from 1791 Diamonds is sure to set any heart on fire. Carlotta showcases a magnificent round brilliant diamond for the centre stone with a sophisticated pave setting along the shoulders which follows the curve of the finger beautifully and adds a fabulous sense of opulence to the design.
This is an ultra feminine style of diamond engagement ring. The delicate pave setting is made by fitting diamonds into tapered holes in the metal with some of the surrounding metal then raised to form beads which secure the stones. The effect is like tiny droplets forming two lines of shimmering light to emphasise the lustrous metal of the ring shank while leading the eye to the impressive centre stone.
Round brilliant diamonds make particularly impressive centre stones. The shape was calculated by a mathematician to optimise the amount of light reflected back through its top table face and hence why it sparkles so well; in combination with the pave set diamonds in the Carlotta design, the effect is quite breathtaking.
