Starlet
$2,600 USD
The Starlet is the perfect update for heirloom marquise stones, a very popular cut for rings in decades past. The design utilizes a combination of east/west tapered baguettes set in a double halo of rounds to contemporize and soften the shape of center marquise with intricacy. Delicate prongs serve the double purpose of creating both a frame for the design as well as a subtle floral illusion. This cluster effect adds scale to smaller center stones and by contrast, is a beautiful enhancer of colored stones as well. Marquise have a very large surface area for their carat weight, so you get a lot of scale for your investment with this design. The setting has been designed to sit low profile and to accommodate a wedding band flush to the shank.
Please note: this item is made to order with approximately 6-8 week lead time. Upon completion, I will send a video of the completed ring, confirm your mailing address, and ship express. For a faster turnover, please contact me for rush options or order from the Ready to Ship section.
The Starlet; is very flexible in that it can be built to accommodate any scale center stone. Marquise vary quite a bit in dimensions, even with the same carat weight. The standard Starlet uses approximately .60 carat center.

How do I go about ordering this ring?
- Visit my FAQ page first to better understand the ordering process, then contact me with any additional questions.
What materials are used for the white sapphire version of this ring?
- The center is a natural white sapphire, the halo is always diamonds (white sapphires break/crack at that scale), and the outside stones are white sapphires: natural white sapphires for the rounds and Chatham white sapphires for the custom cut baguettes (cleaner stones from the same DNA, less imperfections that would be easily visible in a natural sapphire baguette cut)
I already have an heirloom stone, can I use it in this setting?
- Yes! I love when clients incorporate their own stones into my settings. I can build a semi mount for you to precisely fit your center stone size and color. You can choose to send the stone to me to have it set at no extra cost, or I can send you the semi mount to have your stone set locally. I will need exact millimeter dimensions of your stone to give you a quote.
Can I buy this ring with other stones?
- Yes! Please contact me for a quote for different stones, including blue sapphires, rubies, etc.
Can this ring be built with all Moissanite or lab diamonds?
- Unfortunately, no. Both moissanite and lab diamonds are only center stone options in my designs. The outside stones can be white sapphires or natural diamonds.
Love the ring as is, but prefer a different size/type center stone or metal? More questions?
Pricing at checkout is for fully insured, trackable overnight domestic shipping. International shipping is available for $250. Please contact me with any questions; I am available throughout the process of purchasing your dream ring!
