You can look as closely as you like at the Solitaire Ring, but you won't see the setting that you expect. The beautifully smooth 18 karat gold finger band appears to have been fed through the gem before it was forged closed. The ravishing result is a complete and flawless precious metal loop that's embellished with an inseparable stone.

The round-cut diamond is not all that large, but the absence of a claw makes it look all the more magnificent. The elegant piece of jewelry was designed by Torafu Architects of Yokyo and it's manufactured and sold by [Gallery de Poisson](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gallery-dept-eyewear). Customers interested in the Solitaire Ring can choose one of many [brilliant colors for the rock](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/customizable-ring), which is then laser cut to enable the [engagement ring's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oneofakind-engagement-ring) creation.
