Alya 1.31 is a By Erstwhile design centering a 1.31 carat antique old European cut diamond, chosen for its broad facets, open culet, and unique character. The center stone is flanked by antique old European cut diamond accents in a classic three-stone composition inspired by mid-20th-century engagement rings. Crafted in 18k yellow gold, the ring features a slightly wider band that feels substantial and comfortable on the hand, offering a bolder silhouette without sacrificing elegance. The gently contoured band enhances wearability while grounding the design, allowing the sculptural prongs and historic diamonds to take center stage.
By Erstwhile designs focus on proportion, restraint, and longevity—reinterpreting historic details through a modern lens. Handcrafted in the heart of New York City, the Erstwhile Collection showcases rare antique diamonds elegantly set in precious metals.
