The Nova Green Emerald East-West Bezel Engagement Ring

The Nova is an east-west bezel that lays the emerald sideways across the band — horizontal, low, and modern in a way that vertical settings can never be.

The Nova lays an oval emerald east-west and closes a full bezel around it — for a gem this soft and inclusion-rich, an unbroken rim protecting every edge is the most practical frame there is, and it keeps the green low and calm on the hand.

Emerald draws its green from a trace of chromium in the beryl — what makes an emerald green.

Metal Options 14K Yellow Gold, 14K White Gold, 14K Rose Gold, or Platinum. Sustainably sourced.
Center Oval emerald, set east-west
Style East-west bezel emerald engagement ring
Setting Full bezel
Crafting Time Approximately 3-4 weeks

Setting starts at $2,395 in 14K gold and $2,795 in platinum.

How does the Nova east-west bezel differ from a vertical solitaire?

The Nova lays the emerald sideways — east-west across the band — and wraps it in a continuous bezel instead of prongs. The horizontal orientation reads modern and architectural, sitting lower on the finger than a vertical solitaire.

Why does the bezel matter on an east-west setting like the Nova?

The Nova's bezel wraps the emerald in a continuous metal frame, keeping the horizontal silhouette clean and protecting the stone from catching on fabric. Prongs would visually interrupt the east-west line of the band.

What's the best emerald engagement ring style for someone who wants color carried throughout the design?

The Nova makes the emerald part of the architecture rather than ornament. The east-west bezel design integrates the green emerald into the structure, suiting couples who want color carried by deliberate design rather than set against it.

Our guided approach to customizing each ring with intention and clarity.

Every Lisa Robin ring is made to order, which means your design can be thoughtfully refined—even when ordering online. Whether you’re adjusting a detail or evolving the design, we guide you through each decision to ensure the final piece feels cohesive and entirely yours.

Design Refinements can be explored after your initial order, with any pricing adjustments clearly outlined and approved before crafting begins.

Refinement options include but are not limited to:

  • Adjusting the width or taper of the band (shank)
  • Modifying or adding side diamonds for additional detail or presence
  • Changing the prong style (claw, round, double prong, etc.)
  • Adjusting the number of prongs for both aesthetic and structure
  • Refining the basket design for a different profile or overall look
  • Selecting your preferred metal type and color
  • Adapting the design to better coordinate with a wedding ring
Made to order — Your emerald engagement ring ships in 3-4 weeks, approximately Nov 10 to Nov 14

East-West, Low, and Quietly Modern

Most engagement rings stand the center upright. The Nova lays it down.

An oval set east-west runs across the finger instead of along it. The ring stops pointing and starts spanning — wider, lower, and considerably harder to knock, because there's nothing standing up to catch. The full bezel finishes the argument: a continuous rim of metal rather than prongs, so nothing protrudes at all.

Of every gemstone in this collection, emerald has the most to gain from that. Emerald is 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs scale and carries jardin — French for garden — the network of internal fractures that would be flaws in anything else and are simply what emerald is. Those fractures make it more vulnerable to a knock than its hardness alone suggests. A bezel wraps the entire edge; a prong setting leaves it exposed at four points and lifts it into harm's way.

This is the most protective setting we make, on the gemstone that most benefits from it.

If you’d like to personalize your design, you can place your order at any time—we’ll follow up to refine the details and ensure everything aligns with your preferences.

Private Design Appointments

For a more collaborative experience, work with us one-on-one, either in person or virtually. Your engagement ring consultation is tailored to you—we guide you through each decision in real time, shaping your diamond engagement ring with clarity and intention.

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

As you explore your engagement ring, you can review available diamonds by shape, proportions, and overall presence to select the one that best complements your design.

This approach gives you access to a broader range of diamonds, allowing your selection to align more precisely with your design, priorities, and budget.

We guide you through how each diamond interacts with your setting—so the final engagement ring feels balanced, intentional, and cohesive.

Both natural and lab-grown diamonds are available, giving you the flexibility to choose what feels right for you.

Before your ring is hand-crafted, you’ll review detailed CAD renderings created using your diamond’s exact dimensions.

Multiple views allow proportions, balance, and design details to be carefully considered—so you can feel confident in how your engagement ring design will come together before crafting begins.

If a wedding ring is selected within the same order, renderings will also show each ring individually and together, helping you understand how they pair and flow as a set.

Once your design is approved, your ring is hand-crafted specifically for you using carefully selected materials and ethically sourced diamonds.

Each ring is a made to order engagement ring, typically completed in approximately three weeks.

You can choose secure, fully insured shipping or private studio pickup. Throughout the process, we remain available to guide you—so you always know what to expect at every stage.

What our customers say about their Lisa Robin Engagement Rings

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.

Gender Neutral Engagement Rings and Wedding Bands — Frequently Asked Questions

Gender neutral rings are designed without the visual markers that traditionally distinguish 'men's' from 'women's' rings — meaning they don't lean toward extremely substantial widths (traditional masculine), extremely refined narrow widths (traditional feminine), heavy surface texture, floral motifs, or other visual elements that carry strong gender associations. Instead, gender neutral designs use middle-range widths (typically 3-5mm), balanced proportions, clean construction, restrained diamond placement, and design vocabulary that reads appropriately on any hand. Many rings designed without specific gender intent end up working as gender neutral by default; this collection curates those designs into a single browsable group.
Yes — this is one of the primary use cases for the gender neutral collection. Both partners can choose rings from the same design family with width or material variations adapting each ring to the wearer's hand. Common approaches: same design at different widths (4mm and 6mm Tanner, for example), same width in different metals (yellow gold and white gold), same design at identical specifications (when hand sizes are similar), or coordinated-but-distinct designs (each partner chooses a different ring that shares aesthetic vocabulary). The Tanner family is particularly suited for matched couples' bands because it offers five widths in the same design language.
No. Engagement rings and wedding bands are personal choices — some couples choose both, some choose only wedding bands, some choose only engagement rings, and configurations vary. There's no universal expectation that any particular configuration is correct. For same-gender couples or any couple preferring a streamlined approach, both partners wearing wedding bands only (without engagement rings) is a valid choice. For couples wanting more ring presence, both partners can wear engagement ring + wedding band. The configuration choice should serve the couple's preferences, not external expectations.
Yes — the design vocabulary in this collection is a starting point, not a constraint. Adjustments toward more traditionally masculine (wider band, more substantial profile, surface texture) or more traditionally feminine (narrower band, more refined proportions, more prominent diamond detail) can be made during custom design. Some couples want their rings to land at the gender neutral midpoint; others want their rings to lean slightly in one direction while remaining outside the traditional 'his and hers' binary. We discuss preferences during the design conversation. The flexibility is the point: the rings should reflect each wearer's individual identity rather than fitting predefined categories.
That's a valid choice. Couples don't need to wear matching or even coordinated rings — many couples choose rings that reflect each partner's individual style preferences. One partner might want a substantial textured wedding band while the other prefers a refined diamond eternity ring. The relationship doesn't require visual symmetry between the rings. For couples wanting some visual connection between distinctly different rings, options include shared metal (both rings in yellow gold, for example), shared engraving (matching dates or phrases inside both rings), or shared diamond origin (both rings using lab grown diamonds). We discuss approaches during the design conversation.
Yes. A gender neutral wedding band can be paired with any engagement ring, including engagement rings that lean more traditionally feminine or masculine. The pairing decisions involve standard considerations: matching diamond cut vocabulary, metal coordination, width proportion, and design language coherence. A gender neutral wedding band paired with a more characterful engagement ring creates a deliberate vocabulary mix — the engagement ring brings the design statement, the wedding band brings refined support. Many couples find this approach works well because the engagement ring carries the visual focal weight and the wedding band supports without competing.
Rings in this collection are made-to-order in approximately 2-4 weeks from when your order is placed. Wedding bands typically finish in 2-3 weeks. Engagement rings with center stones and substantial design typically take 3-4 weeks. Custom designs (where Lisa designs something specific to your vision) take 3-4 weeks from design approval. For wedding date deadlines, confirm timeline during the order conversation.
Yes. All diamonds in this collection can be specified as lab grown or natural. Lab grown diamonds are physically and optically identical to natural diamonds — same hardness, same brilliance, same chemical and crystal structure — but cost approximately 40-60% less for the same carat weight, color, and clarity. Most accent diamonds in wedding bands today are lab grown; the visual difference is undetectable. Lab grown diamonds are particularly aligned with values around responsible sourcing for couples who prioritize that consideration. We discuss diamond origin during the design conversation.
Pricing depends on the specific design, metal choice, diamond specifications, and any customization. Plain Tanner gold wedding bands start around $700-$2,400 depending on width and karat. Diamond wedding bands range $1,200-$8,000+ depending on diamond count, carat weight, and design complexity. Engagement rings in this collection start around $2,500-$3,500 for solitaire designs and range to $15,000+ for more substantial designs with larger center stones. Custom designs vary based on specifications. Lab grown diamonds reduce cost approximately 40-60% compared to natural. Specific pricing is confirmed during the design conversation.
Yes. Design appointments are open to anyone planning engagement rings, wedding bands, or other significant jewelry. The appointment is a conversation about your relationship, your aesthetic preferences, your timeline, and your budget. Whether you're a same-gender couple choosing matched wedding bands, a nonbinary individual designing a single ring for yourself, an engaged couple of any configuration, or anyone wanting to discuss ring design — the appointment serves your specific situation rather than fitting you into predetermined categories. Appointments are available via Zoom, phone, or in person at the Dayton studio. The first appointment is complimentary.
