The Nova East West Bezel Diamond Engagement Ring

The Nova is an east west bezel engagement ring combining one of jewelry's oldest protective settings with a modern horizontal orientation — the diamond lies across the finger inside a smooth metal rim. A low profile engagement ring built to last and worn comfortably through every part of a full life.

The Nova east west engagement ring wraps the entire perimeter of the horizontally set diamond in a smooth, continuous rim of metal — no prong tips, no exposed corners, a profile that sits as close to the hand as any engagement ring setting can. The east-west orientation amplifies that practical quality: the diamond lies across the finger rather than rising above it, creating a bezel diamond ring that is genuinely built for everyday life. As a low profile engagement ring, the Nova combines two of the most enduring practical choices in engagement ring design.

Metal Options 14K Yellow Gold, 14K White Gold, 14K Rose Gold, or Platinum. Sustainably sourced.
Style East west bezel engagement ring
Setting Full bezel
Band 2mm
Setting Height Low
Band Profile Round
Crafting Time Approximately 3-4 weeks

Setting starts at $2,395. Paired with a 1 carat lab grown diamond center, the Nova east west bezel engagement ring starts at approximately $3,295.

What makes the Nova particularly suitable for an active lifestyle?

The Nova combines a full bezel with a low east-west profile. The bezel wraps metal around the whole edge of your center diamond — no exposed prong tips to snag or loosen — and the horizontal setting keeps the diamond lying low across the finger. Together they make it one of the most practical settings for hands-on, everyday wear.

How does the Nova's bezel differ from the Emery's bezel?

Both fully bezel the center diamond. The Nova sets the diamond east-west, horizontally across the finger, on a simple 2mm round band for a low, modern look. The Emery sets its diamond upright on a tapered split shank, a slightly more elevated and sculptural profile. Same protective bezel, different orientation and band.

Why does an east west bezel work especially well for elongated diamond shapes?

Elongated shapes like oval, emerald, and marquise look striking laid horizontally, spanning the width of the finger, and a bezel follows their outline cleanly to hold them at that angle. The east-west bezel both shows off the length of the shape and protects its ends, which is why it suits elongated diamonds particularly well.

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 so 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:

  • Adjusting the width or taper of the band (shank)
  • Modifying or adding side diamonds for additional detail or presence
  • Refining the thickness and edge of the bezel, including a milgrain finish
  • Adjusting the setting height and the profile beneath the bezel
  • Selecting your preferred metal type and color
  • Adapting the design to better coordinate with a wedding ring
Made to order: your diamond engagement ring is crafted in 3 to 4 weeks after you approve your design Dec 02 to Dec 06

The Nova East West Bezel Diamond Engagement Ring

The bezel setting has existed for thousands of years — in ancient Roman, Egyptian, and Byzantine jewelry — because it works. It protects the diamond completely, sits close to the hand, and creates a silhouette that is smooth and uninterrupted. The Nova takes that ancient practical wisdom and turns it sideways.

The east-west orientation gives the bezel a distinctly modern sensibility, and the combination is one of the most wearable engagement rings in the collection. As an east west engagement ring, the Nova reads as deliberately contemporary. As a bezel diamond ring with a horizontal orientation, the Nova combines two practical design choices into a ring built around the way real lives are actually lived. Heritage and modern intention, meeting in practical balance.

Wear it as a ring built for the way you actually live. The Nova joins a Lisa Robin tradition of bezel and east west engagement rings designed for couples who refuse to choose between beauty and practicality.

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.

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.

Each ring is made to order and ready in approximately 3-4 weeks from the time your design is approved.
Both are real diamonds with identical physical and optical properties. A lab grown diamond is created in a controlled setting and generally lets you reach a larger or higher-quality diamond for the same budget. A natural diamond forms over geologic time. The choice is yours.
It depends on how you want the diamond to sit on your hand. A solitaire puts the diamond first; a halo makes it read larger; a hidden halo adds sparkle only seen from the side; a bezel gives the most secure, modern line; a cluster or twist makes a more individual statement. Because every design is hand-crafted to your diamond, you can pair most styles with most shapes.
All four — 14K yellow, white, and rose gold, and platinum — wear well for daily use. White gold and platinum give the brightest, most neutral backdrop for a diamond. Yellow and rose gold add warmth around the center. The best choice is the tone you want to see on your hand.
Yes. If you love a design as it is, you can select your diamond, metal color, and finger size and complete your order online. An appointment is only needed if you want to modify a design or create something fully custom.
