Yellow Gold Shoulder Set Engagement Rings

Choosing Your Yellow Gold Diamond Band Engagement Ring

Diamond band engagement rings, also known as "diamond set engagement rings," are a stunning choice for those who appreciate both classic beauty and contemporary design. Featuring diamonds along the shoulders of the band, these rings offer extra sparkle and a touch of luxury.

At Joshua James, you can choose from our curated collection or work with our jewellery consultants to create a one-of-a-kind piece. Whether you’re customising an existing design or starting from scratch, we’ll help you craft a yellow gold engagement ring as unique as your love story.

Selecting Your Band Style and Setting

Yellow gold diamond bands offer a variety of setting styles to suit your personal taste. Each option enhances the diamonds’ sparkle and transforms the overall look and character of the ring.

Channel-Set: Modern and sleek, with diamonds secured between two edges of yellow gold for a clean, contemporary finish.

Pavé-Set: Small diamonds closely set with tiny metal beads, creating a continuous band of sparkle with a vintage-inspired touch.

Shared Claw: Diamonds held with open-sided claws, allowing maximum light to enhance their brilliance.

If our existing designs don’t fully capture your vision, our bespoke service allows us to collaborate on a custom piece, incorporating unique details such as tapered bands, milgrain accents, or diamond-set bridges.

Why Choose Yellow Gold?

18ct yellow gold is a timeless choice for engagement rings, celebrated for its warm, luxurious hue that complements a range of skin tones. When paired with diamonds, yellow gold creates a stunning contrast that enhances the sparkle of the Diamond(s). Its rich character blends traditional charm with contemporary elegance, making it an enduring favourite for engagement rings.

What Is a Diamond Band Engagement Ring?

A diamond band engagement ring features small diamonds along the shoulders of the band, accentuating the central diamond and adding extra sparkle. This style bridges the gap between a classic solitaire and a more intricate halo design, offering the best of both worlds: simplicity with added brilliance.

Understanding "Diamond Shoulders":

The term "diamond shoulders" refers to the smaller diamonds placed along the sides of the band, leading up to the central stone, which serves as the ring’s focal point.

Can I Have a Thin Yellow Gold Diamond Band Ring?

Yes! We offer thin yellow gold diamond band rings for a delicate and refined look. While we ensure durability in all our designs, our tapered band styles beautifully showcase the central stone while maintaining strength.

Will the Accent Diamonds Match the Centre Stone?

Absolutely. We carefully select VS2-SI1 clarity and D-F colour diamonds for our accent stones, ensuring a consistent and radiant sparkle that complements the central diamond.

What Maintenance Does Yellow Gold Require?

Yellow gold retains its rich tone over time, requiring only occasional cleaning to maintain its brilliance. Regular home care with warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush, along with occasional professional cleaning, will keep your ring looking stunning.
