Why the emerald cut suits it
The step-cut facets of an emerald cut show the colour in long, calm flashes. At 8 x 7 mm it is close to square, which looks smart in a men’s ring.
Setting suggestions
Yellow gold deepens the orange and gives a traditional look. Silver makes the stone look brighter and suits a more casual ring.
