For Melanie, choosing an engagement ring wasn’t just about finding something beautiful—it was about finding a diamond that reflected her values. When she discovered Skydiamond’s carbon-negative process—creating the most sustainable lab-grown diamonds from the sky —she knew she had found something truly special.
“I told my fiancé I wanted to be involved in choosing my ring because I was particularly interested in Skydiamond—the only UK-based lab I know of that creates diamonds from captured carbon.”
As a carbon capture specialist, Melanie knew the environmental cost of traditional diamonds, both mined and lab grown.
At the Skydiamond showroom, they were guided through a hand-held experience, exploring designs with our head of jewellery design, Victoria. While they considered modern alternatives including Stila and the Onda wave ring, they kept returning to the timeless classic solitaire—a setting that let their diamond shine as the centrepiece.
“We chose the 1. 02-ct classic solitaire engagement ring in 18k gold, and I absolutely love it. The tapered gold band has a delicate, elegant feel, and the diamond sits beautifully in its setting”
The couple’s engagement ring is a reminder that luxury doesn’t have to cost the earth. Skydiamond proves this everyday by working in harmony with mother nature. For Matthias and Melanie, Skydiamond wasn’t just an option—it was a choice that aligned with their values.
