Liberté Ring by Schaffrath Germany 

This ring is extremely interesting. The diamond in the center is a freemoving one. It is basically floating loose in the ring. the girdle of the diamond sinks in to the setting and the bar on top keeps it from falling out, making it move freely. We have to admit that a loose diamond in the center of a ring is a nerve wrecking thing for us jewelers, even though we are aware that it is done intentionally. Having said that it is such a cool idea and design. I guess the motto is "wear it at your own risk"? 

This particular ring has baby blue color diamonds on the sides.

Gabriel & Co. Introduces NOVA™ Engagement Ring

New Style Designed Specifically with Remounts In Mind

• 

Nova Ring

New York, NY (PRWEB) April 30, 2015

To celebrate its 25th anniversary as one of the industry’s leading fine jewelry brands, Gabriel & Co.has created something that could prove extraordinary for the anniversaries of millions of others.

The NOVA™ “Remount” Ring is unlike any engagement ring you have ever seen, designed specifically for couples that wish to reaffirm their vows and restate their devotion, yet do so without discarding the ring that first set their lifelong bond in motion.

The brilliance of this inaugural setting for Gabriel’s new NOVA™ Collection of bridal rings is that rather than abandon the original symbol of love for a diamond that may be larger in carats, but smaller in sentiment, is that this one-of-a-kind, unexpected as tomorrow design places the original stone at the epicenter of this exhilarating and airy spiral of handmade diamond encrusted 14K gold curves radiant with the energy of modern romance.

“The usual pattern when time goes by and life keeps getting better is that a couple goes shopping for something bigger and bolder, “ states Gabriel Global Style Director Hal Rubenstein, “But what if you could take the original stone that first ignited that unforgettable life changing moment and reset it into a pattern as bracing and uplifting as it is irresistible? Well, that’s exactly what we have done with this delightful new NOVA™ ring. It’s the most refreshing idea in wedding remounts I’ve seen in ages.”

NOVA™ is handmade with 14K gold and set with 0.68 total carat weight diamonds. The setting is designed to accommodate any size center stone from .50 to 2 carats and is also available in rose and yellow gold as well as platinum. Suggested retail price is $2,515 without center stone. NOVA™ is now for sale at certified Gabriel & Co. authorized retailers and is available for order on http://www.gabrielny.com/nova.
