Your center diamond is held by tulip prongs: petal shapes at the base that rise and finish in a claw. A row of diamonds sits beneath it on two sides, above a split shank.

Setting starts at $2,995 in 14K gold and $3,395 in platinum. Paired with a 1 carat lab grown diamond center, add $900, and the Layla starts at approximately $3,895 in 14K gold. You can select your diamond online or during a design appointment.

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.

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 diamond engagement ring ships in 3-4 weeks, approximately Nov 13 to Nov 17

Find Your Matching Wedding Band

Layla Split Shank Engagement Ring

The Frances Vintage Lab Diamond 14K yellow gold Wedding band front view by Lisa Robin#color_14k-yellow-gold
The Frances Vintage Diamond Wedding 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.

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.

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.

More about Lisa Robin solitaires

A solitaire engagement ring is any engagement ring with a single center diamond and no side diamonds. The setting style can vary widely — classic four-prong, bezel, east-west, twist, hidden halo, or a band with scattered diamond accents — but the defining feature is one center diamond with no diamonds set beside it. The differentiator is the absence of side diamonds, not the prong configuration.
Solitaire engagement ring settings start at $2,095. A 1 carat lab grown diamond adds approximately $900, bringing most solitaires to around $2,995 fully crafted. Natural diamonds, larger carat weights, and colored diamonds price independently. We share itemized quotes so you see exactly what each component costs.
Yes. A solitaire is defined by having one center diamond and no side diamonds — not by how the diamond is held. A bezel-set ring with no side diamonds is a solitaire. So is an east-west, twist, or hidden halo design with no side diamonds. These rings cross-list in their setting-style collections too, but they belong here first.
Every shape works in a solitaire — round, oval, emerald, princess, marquise, pear, cushion, asscher, and radiant. Round is the classic choice. Oval and emerald are the most-requested elongated shapes. Marquise and pear flatter long fingers. Princess, cushion, asscher, and radiant offer modern or vintage architectural feels. We help you pick the shape that fits your hand and your style.
Yes. The Allison and Polaris settings are available with sapphire, ruby, emerald, aquamarine, morganite, yellow diamond, blue diamond, green diamond, pink diamond, and champagne diamond centers. We can also build any of our solitaire designs around a colored diamond or gemstone you'd like to feature — book a private design appointment to discuss options.
3–4 weeks from the day your order is finalized. Diamond selection, CAD review, casting, setting, and inspection happen in that window. We keep you in the loop at every stage and share photos at key milestones if you'd like.
Yes. Every solitaire can be made in 14K yellow, white, or rose gold or platinum, with the diamond shape, carat weight, and quality of your choice. We also build fully bespoke solitaires for couples who want something not in the standing collection — book a private design appointment to start.
It does — visibly. A halo of small diamonds around the center diamond extends the visual footprint of the setting, so a solitaire and a halo with identical center diamonds will read differently on the hand. The solitaire shows the diamond at its actual size; the halo amplifies it visually. Whether that's the right tradeoff depends on the diamond itself. A 1.5 carat solitaire reads substantial on its own; a 0.75 carat halo can read like a larger center. We discuss this directly when you're choosing between formats.
Both are real diamonds with identical chemistry, optics, and durability — you cannot tell them apart by eye or with a jeweler's loupe. The difference is provenance and price. Lab grown diamonds are about a quarter of the price of natural diamonds of the same specifications, which means a 1 carat lab grown is in reach for many couples where a 1 carat natural isn't. Most Lisa Robin couples choose lab grown for the larger carat weight it brings within reach in a solitaire, where the diamond carries the entire ring. We'll show itemized pricing on both before you decide.
Easily — that's part of the design intent. A solitaire engagement ring is the most flexible engagement ring shape for wedding ring pairing, working with straight bands, curved bands, eternity bands, and stacked combinations. Low-profile solitaires (where the diamond sits close to the finger) pair flush with most wedding rings. Higher cathedral solitaires lift the diamond up and forward, leaving more room beneath the diamond for a contoured wedding ring. We plan the wedding ring pairing during the engagement ring design — especially if you want both rings to read as one set.
