Our signature BRI STAR ILLUSION™ (U.S. Design Patent no. D812,518) features setting of miracle plates that center each genuine diamond in a mirror-finish, high-polish frame surrounded by eight brilliant cut diamonds. The faceted bezel setting gives the illusion of much larger stones, magnifying the sparkle - in a solitaire-like appearance. The sparkle from the surrounding stones is reflected off of the angles of the metal and the center stone, making it difficult to tell where the diamond ends and metal begins. If you look at it from the distance, the effect created by the sparkle of the small diamonds gives the impression of a large solitaire stone. Close up, you’ll see how small round diamonds are cleverly set together to create a delicate appearance.
