Amazing experience start to finsh designing my fiancee's custom engagement ring. We are so happy with the end result!
The Iris Collection is a timeless expression of luxury, artistry, and modern design. Each ring is sculpted with a sense of movement, where soft curves meet refined structure, creating a silhouette that feels both ethereal and enduring. The result is a harmony of strength and subtlety — pieces that embody sophistication while carrying an unmistakable presence. Timeless yet distinctly contemporary, the Iris Collection is crafted for those who desire luxury that speaks with quiet power, artistry, and individuality.
The Iris is GOODSTONE’s sculptural split-shank solitaire, where the band divides into soft curves as it nears the center stone. A split shank is a band that splits into two strands before reaching the diamond. Here, those strands sweep in gentle curves while the single diamond stays the focus.
A plain solitaire runs as one continuous band up to the center stone, while the Iris splits into two curved strands that open around the diamond. That division adds movement and a sculptural shape to the sides of the ring. The center stone still leads, and the curves frame it.
The split band gives the Iris a sense of motion, as the two strands curve apart, drawing the eye up toward the center stone. The open space between them adds a sculptural, flowing quality to the profile. It softens the outline while keeping the diamond at the center of attention.
Two curved metal strands support the center setting, so the Iris stands up to daily wear. The split design gives the head a steady base. As with any sculptural ring, the curves reward gentle care, and choosing a durable metal keeps the strands sturdy through everyday contact.
The split-shank design has an open space between the two strands, which can collect a small amount of residue during daily wear. A soft brush easily reaches into that gap. Warm water and mild soap wash it out, and the open shape means dirt rinses away rather than staying trapped.
The split shank lifts the two strands of the band toward the center stone, raising the setting and giving the diamond a sculptural frame. The curves support the head from both sides and draw attention up to the stone. The design elevates the diamond and keeps it the focal point.
An Iris solitaire can be resized, with the work done at the base of the band where the two strands rejoin. A jeweler sizes from that lower section, and the sculptural strands near the center stone stay untouched.
Round and oval diamonds suit the Iris well, since their curved outlines echo the soft sweep of the split band. Cushion and pear shapes also settle nicely into the sculptural frame. A GOODSTONE designer shapes the curves around your chosen stone so the strands meet the diamond in balance.
A split-shank band can make the center diamond look larger, since the two strands curve outward, leading the eye inward toward the stone. The open shape draws attention to the center and gives the diamond a fuller frame, while the strands flatter its outline.
The Iris does not rest flush against a straight wedding band, since its curved split shank leaves a gap where a straight band would meet it. A fitted or contoured band follows the line of the split shank and closes that gap, so the two meet without a space between them.
A contoured or curved wedding band complements the Iris best, since it follows the sculptural line of the split shank and nests against it without a gap. A band shaped to the curves keeps the pairing smooth and continuous. A GOODSTONE designer can craft a fitted band for your ring.
The gap between the two strands is where residue gathers on an Iris ring, so aim your cleaning there. A soft brush with warm water and mild soap is used to reach into that space and along the base of the center setting. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth, and periodically check to keep the setting secure.
A split-shank solitaire like the Iris can cost more than a plain solitaire, since the sculptural curves take extra metal and more detailed work to shape. The added labor of the split design accounts for most of the difference, which stays well below the cost of the center diamond itself.
Yes. The split shank rejoins into a single smooth band at the base where it rests on the finger, so the Iris stays comfortable. The sculptural curves stay near the center stone, away from the underside. The smooth inner band gives an easy, settled fit against the finger.
