The Design
The Queenstown is the solitaire reduced to its working parts. The band is 2mm wide and plain the whole way around: one width, one surface, no accent stones set into it. At the top it resolves into four prongs, small claws that hold the round stone while leaving its sides open, so light reaches the diamond from every direction. Because the band carries no ornament, the ring reads the same from every angle of the hand, and the stone carries the whole design. The displayed price is the complete ring, center stone and setting together.
The Story of Queenstown
One deep lake, and mountains rising sharply from its shore
The Long Lake
Queenstown sits on a bay of Lake Wakatipu, a glacial lake 80 kilometers long, the longest in New Zealand, that bends twice on its way through the mountains: south, then east, then south again. The town faces the water and the ranges stand along it. The ring is organized the same way, around one thing: a single round stone on a plain 2mm band, four prongs, and nothing else.
The Remarkables
The range that walls the lake's southeastern shore is called The Remarkables, and it rises sharply from the water, its crest a line of serrated peaks standing roughly two thousand meters above the surface of the lake. In that section there is no slow approach: shore, then rock, then crest. The band is built on the same section. A plain 2mm hoop goes straight to four prongs and the stone, with nothing set along the shoulders between them.
The Diamond
The center stone is a round brilliant, round in outline, so it shows the same face whichever way the hand turns. The cut is designed to work through its hidden depth: the facets below the setting are angled to send light entering the top back out through the top, which is why the stone reads bright rather than glassy. Every Beylora center stone is lab-grown and IGI-certified, D color, VVS clarity, and that grading applies to the center stone itself, certificate issued before it is ever set. Choose the carat weight on this page; the setting stays the same.
The Depth Below
The surface of Lake Wakatipu lies 309 meters above the sea, and the lake runs to depths of more than 380 meters, so at its deepest point the floor of the glacier-cut trench sits below sea level. From shore the water reads as one broad plane; the depth that shaped it is all underneath. A round brilliant carries itself the same way: most of the stone's depth hangs below the prongs, out of sight, its lower facets angled to turn light around and send it back up through the top.
The Narrow Channel
Lake Wakatipu is long but never wide. Through both bends and the reaches between them it measures no more than 5 kilometers across, so the lake runs through the mountains as a channel, not a basin, keeping to one narrow measure from end to end. The band is made to the same rule: 2mm wide at the top of the finger, 2mm wide underneath it, one width and one surface the whole way around.

Ask us anything
The diamonds
Is a lab-grown diamond actually a diamond?
Yes. A lab-grown diamond is pure crystallized carbon with the same physical, chemical and optical properties as one formed in the earth: the same fire, the same brilliance, the same hardness. It tests as a diamond on a jeweler’s tester, and every Beylora center stone is independently certified, so it is verified, not just promised.
Will anyone be able to tell?
No. To the eye, a lab-grown diamond is indistinguishable from a natural one. They share the same structure and catch light the same way. Telling them apart takes specialized equipment in a gemological laboratory, not a glance across a room.
Are they ethical and conflict-free?
We believe responsible sourcing deserves clear answers. Beylora uses lab-grown diamonds. Lab-grown origin describes how a diamond was made; it is not, by itself, proof of worker protections, energy use or the origin of the ring’s metals. Contact us for the sourcing information available for your ring.
What is your diamond quality standard?
Every Beylora engagement-ring center diamond is lab-grown, D color and VVS clarity (VVS1 or VVS2), with Excellent polish and Excellent symmetry. D is the highest grade on the D-to-Z color scale. VVS inclusions are very difficult for a trained grader to see at 10× magnification.
Your individual IGI report records your center diamond’s grades and measurements. Use the report number to check the record at igi.org; an overall cut grade is stated only when the report supports it.
Accent diamonds are lab-grown. The IGI report covers the center diamond.
Which laboratory grades your diamonds, and can I check it myself?
Each engagement-ring center diamond has its own IGI report. Enter the report number on igi.org to check the recorded identity, grades and measurements. An individual report describes the center stone; it does not grade the complete ring or certify sourcing practices. How to read an IGI report.
Why do you show a cut grade on some rings and not others?
We show an overall cut grade only where the center diamond's grading report supports it. IGI grades the cut of round brilliants and fancy shapes, so the individual report is what matters. Polish and symmetry are separate grades; Beylora's lab-grown center diamonds have Excellent polish and Excellent symmetry.
For round brilliants, IGI’s cut scale runs Ideal, Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor. For fancy shapes, the cut scale runs Excellent to Poor. Polish and symmetry each run Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor. Check the report for your center diamond. If its overall cut grade is not listed, we do not infer one from the finish grades.
The price
Is the price I see really the whole ring, or do costs get added later?
The price you see is the complete ring. The center stone, any accent stones, and the setting are all included together, with nothing added to the ring at checkout or after. We price it this way on purpose: no one should get to checkout and watch the number climb. The only things checkout can add are sales tax and, only if you choose it, $300 Rush delivery. What a complete-ring price includes.
The price seems low for a diamond ring. Is it too good to be true?
It’s a fair question, and the answer is simple: growing a diamond costs a fraction of what it takes to find and mine one, so the same D color, VVS clarity stone reaches you for less, with nothing about the diamond compromised. We did not choose a price and then find a diamond to fit it. We chose the grade first and then built the ring around it. Our rings start at $1,500 for the complete ring, stone and setting together. What a 2 carat lab-grown ring costs.
Can I pay over time?
Yes. Pay in full or choose a flexible payment plan with Shop Pay. Most ring plans carry interest; your rate comes from a quick eligibility check that does not affect your credit score. You’ll see your exact rate and monthly payment at checkout before you commit, and you can pay it off early at any time. Paying over time changes nothing about her ring: we make it with the same care, and it ships complete, never held back waiting on a final payment.
Rates from 0-36% APR. Payment options through Shop Pay Installments are subject to an eligibility check and are provided by these lending partners: affirm.com/lenders. Options depend on your purchase amount, and a down payment may be required. State notices to consumers: affirm.com/licenses.
If you finance your purchase with Affirm, your first payment is due approximately two weeks after your purchase is finalized. Please note that due to extended delivery times, your loan payment(s) may be due before you receive your purchase.
Your ring
How long until I receive my ring?
Each ring is made to order, which takes about 30 days from the day you order to the day it arrives: the time it takes to set your diamond into the metal you chose, made for you rather than pulled from a shelf. If you need it by a certain day, choose Rush at checkout: your ring is made and delivered by express in about 15 days, for $300. A Rush ring is the same ring, made to the same standards; your order simply goes first.
Which metals can I choose from?
Beylora offers 14k white gold, 14k yellow gold, 18k white gold, 18k yellow gold and platinum. Karat describes the gold content: 14k is about 58.3% gold; 18k is 75%. Start with the color you prefer, then compare the complete price for the same design and size.
For example, a complete 2-carat Bellagio is $1,800 in 14k white gold, $2,300 in 18k white gold, or $2,500 in platinum, before tax and optional Rush.
If you have a metal sensitivity or care question, ask us about the exact alloy and finish before choosing.
How do I get the ring size right?
If the ring is for your own hand, any jeweler can size you in minutes, or use the measurement chart in our ring sizing guide. Buying it as a surprise? The same guide has three quiet ways to find her size without asking, and conversions from other countries’ sizing systems. Get as close as you can and don’t let it worry you: a size that’s slightly off is a small adjustment, and your first resize comes with $100 from us.
What if it doesn’t fit? Can it be resized?
Yes. If the fit isn’t quite right, the ring can be resized, and we send you $100 toward it at any jeweler you choose, one resize per ring. A trusted local jeweler is usually the quickest. Sizing a surprise is tricky for everyone, so get as close as you can and don’t let it worry you: a size that’s slightly off is a small adjustment, not a mistake. See our policies for the details.
After you order
What if my ring breaks?
Your ring is covered by the Beylora Lifetime Guarantee, our lifetime warranty, included with every ring. If something happens to your ring, whether a bent prong or a center diamond that chips or falls out, we’ll repair it or replace it. You can use it once, at any point in the ring’s life, and you only pay shipping both ways. There are no inspections or cleanings to keep up. The one thing it doesn’t cover is a ring that’s lost or stolen; that’s what jewelry insurance is for. The moment something feels loose or bent, stop wearing it and email marketing@beylora.com that day with your order number and a photo, and we’ll send instructions. See how it compares.
Separately, if a ring arrives damaged or isn’t what you ordered, we put it right at no cost, and that doesn’t use your guarantee. See our policies for the full details.
Can I track my order while I wait?
Yes. You can follow your ring the whole way: open Track Order at the bottom of any page, sign in with your email, and your order and its status are right there. Check in as often as you like.
What is your return policy?
If your ring isn’t quite right, you can return it within 30 days of the day it arrives, with a 20% restocking fee deducted from the refund. That fee is for a change of mind: if anything is wrong with the ring when it reaches you, we repair it, replace it, or refund you in full, and no fee is taken. The optional $300 Rush fee is nonrefundable on change-of-mind returns. We want you to see it in person, in your own light, before you decide it’s the one. Just reach out and we’ll walk you through it. The full details, including your prepaid return label, are in our refund policy.
How does my ring ship?
Your ring ships within the United States with full tracking, so you can follow it the whole way to your door. Standard shipping is free and fully insured, and your ring arrives about 30 days from the day you order; with Rush at checkout, about 15. We ask for a signature at delivery, so it’s never left sitting on a doorstep.
