It seemed a little risky at first to buy a ring on-line but I was quickly assured after the first time I spoke to you about the guarantee. I really appreciated how accommodating you were with my special requests for the delivery of my ring to be available for when my fiance (now husband) was visiting me

I had something specific in mind for my wife to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary, and 1791 couldn't have made it easier. I told Designer Alice roughly what I was after and within a day I had a beautiful rendered image of the ring design sitting on my desktop that you could have sworn was a photo of the real thing. So from idea to reality in about 48 hours, not bad! We were easily able to make a couple of small design tweaks, and the result was stunning. Right through the process from design to the paperwork afterwards was a pleasure and I would highly recommend 1791 to anyone looking for value for money and an outstanding result. I know my wife loved it :)

Simple elegance defines the Duchess diamond engagement ring from 1791 Diamonds. The Duchess features a lovely marquise diamond set across a band of either 18kt yellow gold, 18kt white gold or platinum.

The distinctive oval shape of the marquise diamond offers a stunning alternative to the traditional round brilliant diamond shape for diamond engagement rings and is particularly well suited to someone with long, slender fingers. An added advantage of this fancy cut is a marquise diamond tends to emphasize its carat weight, making it appear much larger than it actually is; the result is a striking diamond ring for less cost than other traditional diamond cuts.

The marquise diamond cut is said to have been commissioned by Louis XIV to commemorate the smile of his beloved Marquise de Pompadour, and the Duchess design certainly encapsulates a regal and romantic air.
