Will a hidden halo make my center diamond look bigger, like a halo does?

No. A classic halo surrounds your center diamond with diamonds you see from above, which makes it look larger. A hidden halo is a row of small diamonds set on the basket below your center diamond instead of around its edge, so it adds light to the profile and leaves the center's outline and size unchanged from above. On the Layla it runs along two sides of the basket.

Is the Layla a good choice if I want a solitaire look from above?

Yes. From above you see your center diamond with nothing around its edge. The tulip prongs are shaped like petals at the base and narrow to a claw at the tip, so the flower shape appears only when you see the ring in profile.

How does the Layla compare to the Gabriella?

Both have a split shank. The Gabriella frames your diamond in an eight-sided basket with a milgrain edge. The Layla leaves the diamond's outline open and puts its detail underneath, in the tulip prongs and the hidden halo. Choose by where you want the detail: around your diamond or below it.

How Lisa helps you refine your design before it is crafted.

Every Lisa Robin ring is made to order, so your design can be refined even when you order online. Whether you adjust one detail or reshape the design, Lisa guides you through each choice so the finished ring feels cohesive and entirely yours.

Refinements are made after your order is placed. Any change in price is shown to you and approved before crafting begins.

Refinements include:

  • Adjusting the width or taper of the band (shank)
  • Modifying or adding side diamonds for more detail or presence
  • Changing the prong style (claw, round, double prong and more)
  • Adjusting the number of prongs, for both look and security
  • Refining the basket for a different profile
  • Choosing your metal and color
  • Adapting the design to sit with your wedding ring
Made to order: your diamond engagement ring is crafted in 3 to 4 weeks after you approve your design Dec 06 to Dec 10

Layla Split Shank Engagement Ring

Layla Split Shank Engagement Ring

From above, the Layla is a solitaire. One diamond, nothing around its edge.

Turn your hand and the rest appears. A classic halo makes the center look larger from above; a hidden halo leaves the outline alone and lights the profile, and on the Layla it rises out of petals the way a tulip opens.

The split shank does quieter work. The band divides in two as it reaches the setting, giving the ring a wider base while the band stays slim under your finger.

It reads as a solitaire to everyone else, and as something more to you.

Design Process

The Lisa Robin Engagement Ring Design Experience

How your ring goes from your idea to the finished piece, with clarity at every step.

Online Ordering

Begin your custom engagement ring online, with guidance at each decision. Diamond shape guides, setting comparisons and education pages throughout the site help you understand every choice.

If you would like to personalize your design, place your order at any time. Lisa follows up to refine the details with you before anything is crafted.

Private Design Appointments

For a more collaborative experience, meet with Lisa one-on-one, in the studio or by Zoom. Your design appointment is shaped around you: Lisa guides each decision in real time as your diamond engagement ring takes shape.

Compare diamonds from trusted suppliers around the world through the Lisa Robin Global Diamond Collection.

Review available diamonds by shape, proportions and overall presence, and choose the one that suits your design, your priorities and your budget.

Lisa shows you how each diamond will sit in your setting, so the finished engagement ring feels balanced and intentional.

Natural and lab-grown diamonds are both available, so you can choose what feels right for you.

Before your ring is crafted, you review detailed CAD renderings made with your diamond's exact dimensions.

Multiple views let you see proportions, balance and design details, so you know how your engagement ring will come together before crafting begins.

If you add a wedding ring to the same order, the renderings show each ring on its own and both together, so you can see how they pair.

Once you approve your design, your ring is crafted by hand, made for you.

Your engagement ring is completed in 3 to 4 weeks after design approval.

Choose fully insured shipping or a private pickup at the studio. Lisa stays in touch at every stage, so you always know what comes next.

Couples Who Designed Their Engagement Rings With Lisa

I loved working with Lisa Robin! It was so easy to create exactly what I wanted. With some minor changes to Lisa's gorgeous styles, I had the perfect wedding ring to coordinate with my Lisa Robin Engagement Ring. Can’t wait to add another ring to my stack.

Our experience with Lisa Robin was delightful. We found our Lisa Robin engagement ring Instagram and then picked out and bought our wedding rings online. Every question we had was answered quickly. Lisa made us feel special and guided us in the right direction. When we got our rings, they were just what we wanted, expressing our style and love perfectly. We are so happy with how everything turned out.

Engagement Ring Setting Questions

The setting is everything except the center diamond: the band, the prongs or bezel that hold your diamond, and any side diamonds. Each Lisa Robin setting is made to the exact dimensions of the diamond it holds, so your setting and center diamond are chosen and ordered together.
No. Every setting is made to fit its diamond exactly, so the two are ordered together. You can choose a lab-grown or natural diamond, or bring an heirloom diamond of your own. A handling fee applies to diamonds you supply, and you know the amount before you approve.
Settings start at $2,095 in 14K gold, and each product page shows the current price for every metal. Your center diamond is priced on its own, by size, shape, quality and whether it is lab-grown or natural, and its price includes designing your ring to its exact dimensions and setting it.
Your ring is crafted in 3 to 4 weeks after you approve your design. If you have a proposal date in mind, tell Lisa at your first appointment so the timeline is planned around it.
The settings shown here are made in 14K yellow, white or rose gold, or platinum. A custom engagement ring can be made in 10K, 14K or 18K gold, or platinum. Lisa explains how each metal wears and how it changes the price.
Either fits any setting here. Lab-grown is the more common choice, because it gives you a larger diamond for the same budget. Natural diamonds hold their rarity. Lisa shows you both side by side on screen, with every number, so you can compare before you decide.
Yes. You can change the diamond shape, the band width, the setting height or the side diamonds. Any change makes it your design, and you see it in CAD renderings built to your diamond before it is made.
Start with what you want to notice first: one diamond, a frame of diamonds, or many set together. A solitaire keeps attention on your center diamond, a halo adds sparkle around it, and a cluster gives a fuller look. The Engagement Ring Style Quiz narrows it down in a few questions.
Yes. Lisa builds CAD renderings of your ring to your diamond's exact size, from several angles and beside your wedding ring if you're designing both. Nothing is made until you approve.
Every Lisa Robin engagement ring carries a lifetime craftsmanship warranty against crafting defects. A JM Care Plan is available for coverage beyond that, and Lisa explains both at your appointment.
