There is no denying that Amal Alamuddin is an extraordinarily beautiful woman. But she is also a highly accomplished British barrister (trial lawyer). This brainy Lebanese-born beauty first caught George Clooney's eye during a charity event back in 2013. He was instantly smitten. She played hard-to-get, not convinced of his sincerity. After all, the 52 year old movie star and heartthrob was America's most desirable confirmed bachelor. But George would not be daunted...

Fast forward to April of 2014. After a romantic, whirlwind courtship spanning two continents, George proposed to 36 year old Amal on bended knee. When the world's most desirable bachelor decides to get engaged, you can bet the ring will be nothing short of spectacular. He presented Amal with an enormous 7 carat emerald cut diamond engagement ring as elegant and breathtaking as she is.

A diamond must be nearly perfect to take an emerald cut because it has so few facets to hide any flaws. But Amal's 7 carat emerald cut sparkler is also canary yellow in color, making it extremely rare. This amazing diamond and the accent diamonds on either side of it were also mined under conflict-free conditions. That fact is is extremely important to the world renowned couple who are both avid human rights advocates.
