A Horse inspired engagement ring? Or how about a Horse shaped diamond !?

 

I was intrigued to notice some really unusual diamond cuts at a trade show recently. The ones that caught my eye were in the shape of horse's heads and butterflies! They may not be to everybody's taste, but are very interesting examples of some amazing and highly skilled diamond cutting in Belgium.

I don't think they were really designed to be set and I can't imagine how to make them look good in a ring really - but they have a beauty as forms in their own right perhaps.

We have designed a few rings for people who are very keen on horses before but they have normally taken a rather subtle inspiration in the form from the line of a horses back or a horseshoe detail in the edge of a collet.
