we're Obsessed!

An emerald is a rarity in engagement rings, but not wholly unheard of. Some of the most iconic couples in the world had them. The Duchess of Windsor received an emerald engagement ring from the Duke in 1936. John F. Kennedy proposed to Jackie in 1953 with a two-stone ring. The style of this divine design with adjacent 5.17-carat cushion-cut emerald and a 5.03-carat cushion-cut diamond is called Moi et Toi. That's French—the language of love and jewelry. The artistic translation is me and you forever. Price upon request; call 212-832-2666
