A lab-created Asscher-cut moissanite solitaire engagement ring with decorated prongs, marquise-shouldered band, round moissanite accents, and milgrain edges — handcrafted in Jaipur from solid 925 sterling silver or gold alloy. The Asscher cut is a square step-cut with deeply chamfered (clipped) corners, producing an octagonal outline. Developed by the Asscher Brothers in Amsterdam in 1902 and closely associated with the Art Deco period, its distinguishing optical characteristic is the “hall of mirrors” effect: the step facets (rectangular and parallel) and high crown reflect each other in a deep, tunnel-like regression when viewed through the table. This is the opposite optical character from a brilliant cut — where a brilliant maximises surface scintillation and light return, an Asscher maximises depth perception and structural geometry. Inclusions are more visible in a step cut than a brilliant cut; lab-created moissanite is eye-clean by production standard, making it particularly appropriate for Asscher format. The clipped corners of the Asscher reduce corner-chipping risk relative to a square step-cut with sharp corners (such as a princess cut). The centre stone is set with ornate decorative prongs — prongs with additional Art Deco detailing at the tip rather than plain wire or claw prongs. The band tapers from the shank toward the centre stone and features marquise-shaped side stations (raised metalwork in a pointed-oval outline) set with round moissanite accent stones and finished with milgrain edges. Milgrain is a row of tiny raised metal beads produced by a knurling tool, running along the edges of the band’s decorated sections. The combination of Asscher step-cut geometry, ornate prongs, marquise shoulders, moissanite accents, and milgrain finishing makes this the most elaborate metalwork piece in the catalogue.

Care Instructions

Moissanite (silicon carbide, Mohs 9.25) is highly durable and resistant to scratching — suitable for daily engagement ring wear. The milgrain channels and marquise shoulder stations will collect dust and debris over time; clean regularly with a soft brush (such as a soft toothbrush), mild soap, and warm water, paying attention to the milgrain edges and the areas between the decorative prongs and the centre stone setting. Dry thoroughly before storing. Remove before heavy physical activity, swimming, or applying harsh chemicals. Ultrasonic cleaning is generally safe for moissanite — confirm with your jeweller for this specific setting given the complexity of the milgrain and decorative prong work.
