Platinum has been the metal of choice for vintage and Art Deco jewellery since the early 1900s. A vintage-style setting in platinum is not just inspired by the era — it is made from the same material as the originals.

The Asscher cut is a square step-cut diamond with deeply cropped corners that create an almost octagonal outline. Its concentric square facets draw the eye deep into the stone, producing a mesmerising windmill pattern. Invented in 1902 by the Asscher Brothers, it remains one of the most distinctive and collectible diamond shapes.

The purest choice for a lifetime of wear. Platinum is 95% pure, naturally white, and will never fade or yellow over time. It is denser and heavier than gold, giving your ring a satisfying weight and substance. Platinum is hypoallergenic, making it ideal for sensitive skin.

Under £2,000, you can find a 1ct lab-grown diamond engagement ring in your choice of metal and setting style. This price point represents the most popular budget for lab-grown diamond engagement rings — genuine luxury without compromise.

Platinum vintage rings combine antique-inspired detailing with a metal that will outlast every other part of the ring.
