A solitaire with quiet detail
Most engagement rings either commit to the solitaire idea or commit to ornament. The Clover sits between the two. A four-claw centre setting carrying your chosen diamond, with small accent diamonds set down each shoulder of the band. From two feet away it reads as a solitaire. Up close, the band catches light at the angles the centre stone can't reach.
The accent diamonds are micro-claw set so they sit flush with the metal. No raised stones, no catching on clothing or hair. The centre claws are open enough to let the diamond breathe without the metal competing for attention. It's the engagement ring for the customer who likes a solitaire but wants a quiet detail on the band.
Available in 14ct or 18ct yellow, white or rose gold, or in 950 platinum, with a natural or lab grown centre diamond. 14ct is fractionally harder-wearing day-to-day. 18ct is the richer colour and the traditional choice. Platinum is the heaviest on the hand and is naturally white rather than plated white, so it doesn't fade. All three work cleanly with the accent diamonds in the band.
Every Monroe Yorke ring goes through ten distinct stages over four to eight weeks. Design refinement. Three-dimensional modelling. Casting. Stone sourcing. Cleaning. Polishing. Setting. About eight hours of bench-level finishing. Quality control. And the final approval our master jeweller signs off himself. Made in Australia, ten stages, no shortcuts.
Who this ring is for
You want a ring that doesn't try too hard. The band accents are there if you look for them, invisible if you don't. The centre stone does the work and the diamonds on the shoulder echo it without raising their voice.
If you want the same idea with no accents at all, look at the Maria 4-claw solitaire at $1,995 for the setting. If you want a halo instead of shoulder accents, the Callie halo is the next step up in visible diamond presence.

Care & warranty
Everyday wear
Your ring is hand-finished for daily wear. Take it off for the gym, contact sports, gardening, and heavy manual work. Diamonds are the hardest natural material but can chip on impact against another diamond or a metal surface. Chlorine from pools accelerates gold's oxidation over years, rinse the ring after swimming.
Cleaning at home
Weekly: warm water, a drop of mild dish soap, a soft toothbrush, and pat dry. Focus on the underside of the centre diamond and behind the setting, where skin oils collect and dull the light return.
Professional maintenance
Every 12 to 18 months at any of our four showrooms. Included in the lifetime warranty at no cost. We ultrasonic-clean, re-tip any worn prongs, polish the band, and inspect the setting under 10x loupe.
Resize policy
Complimentary resize within 60 days of delivery. After 60 days, resizes are $180 within Australia (we cover return shipping both ways). Turnaround is five to seven business days.
Warranty scope
Lifetime warranty covers workmanship, prong integrity, and metal wear. Does not cover accidental damage, loss, theft, or wear from harsh chemicals. Every warranty claim starts with a free inspection at any of our four showrooms or by mail-in.
