Bypass

This striking 14K yellow gold engagement ring offers a beautiful blend of organic fluidity and brilliant sparkle. At its center sits a magnificent oval-cut lab-grown diamond, showcased in a contemporary partial bezel bypass setting. The polished gold arms of the band fluidly sweep upward to contour the top and bottom curves of the oval stone, securing it with a sleek, low-profile frame.
Tucked neatly into the crook of either bypass arm is a delicate, triangular cluster of three round brilliant diamonds. These side groupings add a soft, tapered transition from the slender band to the commanding center stone.

This 14k white gold engagement ring was designed as a self-purchase to mark a 50th birthday. The bypass band holds a round aquamarine in an open six-prong setting on one side, and a round grey pearl cupped in a wrapping metal setting on the other, creating an intentionally asymmetrical silhouette. The pearl was selected to honor a family tradition of a non-diamond engagement ring, while the aquamarine reflects the wearer’s own birth month. The result is a modern, wearable ring built from two contrasting textures and tones — the faceted brilliance of the stone against the soft luster of the pearl. It suits someone who wants a ring with personal meaning built into the design itself, not just the occasion it marks.

This engagement ring centers a round lab-grown diamond flanked by two pear-shaped sapphires, chosen in a deeper blue after the client reviewed the first render. The band is 14k white gold with a bypass-inspired profile and a wavy line texture along the interior, hiding two engraved roses connected by a single stem. The design moved from an initial princess-cut concept to a round center stone during the design phase, and the sapphire tone was adjusted once more to get the color right. It suits someone who wants a three-stone ring with a personal, partly-hidden detail meant only for the wearer to discover.

This S-shaped bypass ring was rebuilt in platinum after the original — a custom piece from the 1950s — was stolen. Three round natural diamonds sit in a raised box setting at the center, with pave-set round diamonds tracing both curves of the S so no metal band is left bare. The design was refined over several rounds of sketches and 3D renders to match the client’s memory of the original as closely as possible, including a solid, gap-free profile between the stones and the band. Platinum was chosen over white gold for its durability and because it holds its white color without replating over decades of wear. The piece is intended to be worn daily and eventually passed down to a family member.

This breathtaking yellow gold wedding set is a masterclass in organic, bypass-style design. The engagement ring features a brilliant pear-shaped diamond encased in a sleek, protective bezel. The bezel setting flows into a substantial, liquid-gold arm that hovers above the center stone, creating an open-cuff design. Three flush-set diamonds are set into the tip of this arm. The set is enhanced by a matching contoured band that nestles perfectly along the engagement ring’s bottom curves. Tucked intimately into the side of the band is a single, round blue topaz, offering an unexpected pop of color. Together, these pieces create a harmonious, high-fashion silhouette that feels both solid and gracefully fluid.
