And in fact, from conception to completion it took Pitt and jewelery designer Robert Procop one year to design the perfect ring for Mrs. P to be. Said Procop, “Brad had a specific vision for this ring, which he realized over a yearlong collaboration. He wanted every aspect of  it to be perfect, so I was able to locate a diamond of the finest quality and cut it to an exact custom size and shape to suite Angelina’s hand. Brad was always heavily involved, overseeing every aspect of the creative design evolution. The side diamonds are specially cut to encircle her finger. Each diamond is of the highest gem quality.” The Beverly Hills based jeweler is the former CEO of Asprey & Garrard, has designed a collection of jewelry,”The Style of Jolie,” with Angelina and she wears his pieces frequently on the red carpet.
