A minimalist engagement ring keeps the top view to the stone and a slim band. About 85 to 90 percent of our rings sit on a 2 mm band, and our listed solitaires start at $3,100 CAD with a 2 carat lab grown diamond in 14K gold, as of October 2026. If you want a detail, we hide it underneath.

A clean top view: one stone, thin prongs or a thin bezel, and a slim band with no stones on top. Nick's 2 carat emerald cut sits in an ultra thin full bezel on a 2 mm flat band. Sasha's 3.31 carat cushion is a solitaire on four claws with a 2 mm half round band. We never go under 2 mm in gold, so minimal never means fragile. See band width and taper.
Yes, underneath. Keep the top clean and put the personality where only you see it: a hidden halo, engraving on the bridge, or initials in the basket. That's the idea behind our tulip basket: the top stays clean and the personality sits underneath. Ideas are in personalized engagement rings.
A plain solitaire, or a thin bezel if you want nothing to catch. A bezel replaces prongs with a smooth rim of metal; ours are thin so the stone keeps its outline. Set low, it sits close to the finger. See bezel pros and cons and low profile engagement rings.
One stone and a slim band, with nothing extra on top: thin prongs or a thin bezel, no stones down the band.
We don't go under 2 mm in gold, because gold thins over 20 to 30 years. Platinum can go to 1.8 mm.
Our listed solitaires start at $3,100 CAD with a 2 carat lab grown diamond in 14K gold. Settings alone start at $1,299 CAD.
Any of them. 76% of our ring orders are yellow gold, and 14K white or platinum suit a cooler look.
Engraving inside the band, yes. Details in the basket or bridge have to be designed in from the start.
