How to Turn an Heirloom Diamond Into Your Dream Engagement Ring
Blythe Copeland
"Jewelry designer Ari Madilian of Single Stone often works with couples who choose to highlight heirloom stones. “How beautiful is it knowing that you are wearing a piece that was in your family for many years and belonged to someone you loved,” he says. “The sustainability and cost savings are just the icing on the cake.”"
How to Choose the Perfect Wedding Band for Your Halo Engagement Ring
Blythe Copeland
"According to Corina Madilian of Single Stone, “A halo setting can be done using any shape, cut, or type of center stone and can be framed with a variety of stones—gemstones, diamonds, varying cuts—just as long as the main stone is framed to create a halo effect.” Case in point: Kate’s ring, famously, is an oval sapphire framed by diamonds; Cardi’s, a pear-shaped diamond with a double halo of white and pink diamonds; Brown’s, a round-cut diamond with a cushion-shaped diamond halo.These rings are especially popular with brides who want to flaunt a striking center gem, and for those who want to increase the overall size of their sparkler without upping the carat count. “Because of the surround framing of the center stone, you can make the center stone look larger and really draw attention to it,” explains Madilian."

"Don’t judge antique diamonds by their color grading on a certificate, says Gandia. Some vintage diamonds in a J, K, or I color rating can still appear beautiful, especially when set in a gold yellow gold ring. “Because of the way older diamonds were cut, there is something magical and alluring about them.” She pointed to the brand Single Stone’s stylish antique diamond rings as a great example of diamonds that twinkle warmth in contrast to a super white, precision cut new stone.
Bottom line: Antique diamonds have a warmth and romance that some people find irresistible."

When It Comes to Diamond Trends, More Is More Now, As Tradition Has Stepped Outside the Box
Thomas Waller
“Brands like Single Stone are designing new jewelry with vintage diamonds, some cut over a century ago"

Have the Basics Covered? These Stunning Diamond Jewelry Upgrades Should Come Next
Jill Newman
"Vintage diamonds are fast becoming everyone’s favorite, which is why we love Single Stone. The husband-and-wife team behind the LA-based brand searches for unique vintage stones, like the old European-cut diamond in this gold pendant necklace. Cut primarily in the 1920s and 1930s, old European cuts have wider facets, which radiate a warmer glow over the intense sparkle, and they often appear larger than a new diamond of similar size. This solitaire pendant will go with everything in your jewelry box or shine when worn alone; it’s a piece to cherish."
