grown diamond claw set on a band with pave running down both shoulders. The heart is the most demanding shape a cutter can attempt and the least forgiving to set. Its two lobes must match each other exactly or the whole outline looks wrong, the cleft between them has to be sharp and centred, and the point at the base needs a V shaped claw to protect it in the same way a pear does. Get any of those wrong and the shape stops reading as a heart at all. Set correctly, as here, it is the only diamond shape that is instantly recognisable as a symbol rather than a geometry, and the pave shoulders keep the attention travelling toward it rather than sitting anywhere else on the ring.

Because the outline is the whole point of a heart, the claws are kept minimal and the metal reads mainly at the shoulders. Rose gold is the natural pairing for this shape and is the most requested, yellow gold gives it a warmer traditional feel, white gold keeps the silhouette as crisp as possible.

The heart is the hardest of all the fancy shapes to cut well and the easiest to get wrong, which is why so few are made. The two lobes must be identical, the cleft between them must be sharp and centred, and the point at the bottom must line up exactly with that cleft. A millimetre of asymmetry anywhere and the stone stops looking like a heart and starts looking like a mistake. Ours are cut to Excellent symmetry for that reason. The setting is kept deliberately quiet, a fine pave band and five slender claws, because a heart is already saying something and does not need help. Free IGI certificate for the centre stone.

The two lobes must match exactly, the cleft must be sharp and central, and the bottom point must align with it. Small errors are immediately visible in a way they are not on an oval or cushion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat should I look for in a heart cut?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSymmetry above everything. Look at whether the lobes are the same size and height, whether the cleft is a defined V rather than a rounded dip, and whether the point sits directly below it. We cut to Excellent symmetry as standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy five claws?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne V shaped claw caps the bottom point, which is the most vulnerable part of the stone, and two claws hold each lobe. That combination keeps the cleft clear so the shape reads properly from above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a heart look smaller than other shapes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSlightly, for its carat weight, because some of the weight sits in the depth of the lobes. Going up one carat step is worth considering if size matters to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a heart practical for daily wear?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReasonably, provided the point is protected as it is here. It has one vulnerable point rather than the two of a marquise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I get a certificate?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.

That gap is especially useful for a heart, because well cut hearts are scarce in mined material and carry a premium for the cutting skill involved.

Ours are grown by CVD and HPHT methods and then cut and polished by hand. It is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant, and a diamond tester will read it as diamond because it is diamond.

This ring answers that with five claws. The claw at the bottom sits squarely on the point, which is the thinnest and most exposed part of the stone. Two claws rest on the upper curves of the lobes and two more hold the flanks, spacing the grip evenly around the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause there are no side stones, nothing competes with the shape of the center. The claws are slim and rounded at their tips, so from the top the diamond looks almost floating, with just five small dots of metal marking its outline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band is a plain rounded shank of even width all the way round. It is fine enough to feel delicate on the finger but thick enough to support the head, and it leaves plenty of room beside it for a wedding band later.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe studio photographs show the ring in yellow, white and rose gold. The two lifestyle images show it worn against a dark background and at the shoulder, which gives an honest idea of how the heart reads on a real hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur heart lab grown diamond solitaires all share this five claw head and plain band, and this listing is the same design as the others photographed with the smallest center stone of the group. Next to our heart rings with halos or pave shoulders, this one is the most minimal, with only the heart and the band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy five prongs instead of four or six?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive prongs suit the heart shape best. One claw protects the point, and the other four are spaced around the lobes and sides so the outline stays clean and the stone is held evenly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich way does the heart point?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe point of the heart faces toward the hand, down the finger, which is the classic orientation. The lobes face toward the fingertip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush against this ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, in most cases. The band is plain and the head sits above it, so a straight band of similar width can rest close alongside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

Its narrow, rounded profile makes the heart look larger by contrast, and because it carries no stones or engraving, the only sparkle on the hand comes from the center diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart is held by five claws. The lowest claw covers the tip, which protects the point from chipping. The upper two sit on the rounded lobes and the remaining pair hold the sides, so the diamond cannot rock and the cleft at the top stays open to view. From above, the claws look like small beads at the corners of the heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnder the stone the head rises from the band on a simple basket, lifting the heart enough for light to enter from the sides while keeping the profile low enough for everyday wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe photographs include the ring in yellow, white and rose gold, and three worn images.

It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis listing is the same five claw heart solitaire as our other heart listings, photographed with a slightly larger center stone than the smallest one. The visible difference is in the photos, which include a stacked look with a diamond band. Among our heart shaped lab grown diamond rings, it suits someone who wants the plainest possible band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size.

When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the diamond band in the stacked photo included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The band of round diamonds worn next to the ring in one photograph is for styling only and is sold separately. This listing is for the heart solitaire engagement ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a thin band strong enough for a large heart diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The band is made in solid metal and the head is supported by a basket, so it holds 2 to 5 carat centers securely. Very thin bands can bend under heavy force, so remove the ring for gym work and lifting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the heart diamond sit high on the finger?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt sits at a moderate height. The basket raises the heart enough to catch light from the side, but the ring does not stand out so far that it snags easily.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The result is a heart that looks clean and modern rather than sweet or ornate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe claws are placed where a heart needs them. A single claw at the bottom protects the tip. Two claws at the top catch the rounded lobes either side of the cleft, and two more support the flanks.

It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the same design as our other heart cut solitaire listings, photographed here with a mid size center stone, so the claws and band look finer in proportion to the heart. Among our heart shaped lab grown diamond rings, this family is the simplest style, with no halo, no pave and no side stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs this ring good for everyday wear?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The band is smooth, the claws are rounded, and there are no small side stones to lose, which makes it one of the most practical engagement ring styles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the heart show more sparkle than a round?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA well cut heart is a brilliant cut, so it sparkles strongly, though in a different pattern from a round. Its larger outline also makes it look bigger face up than a round of the same carat weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I choose a different metal for the claws?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe claws are made in the same metal and color as the band you select. White gold claws on a yellow band are not offered for this listing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich carat size looks like the photographs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe photographs show a large center, closest to our 3 carat option. The 4 and 5 carat options look larger still on the same band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a large heart comfortable on a dainty band?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The head is balanced over the band and the claws are rounded, so the ring sits steadily. Heavier centers may turn slightly on a loose fit, so choose your exact ring size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the point of a large heart at risk of chipping?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is well protected. A dedicated claw covers the tip, which is the most exposed part of a heart, so everyday knocks land on metal rather than on the diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The rim is rounded on the outside, so the outline reads as a puffed heart of gold with the diamond at its center.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bezel suits a heart shape well. The cleft and the point are the two most delicate parts of a heart cut, and here both are fully enclosed. The table and crown stay completely open, so the brilliant facets still throw plenty of light, as the studio photographs show.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band is a \u003cstrong\u003erounded dome\u003c\/strong\u003e profile, thicker than a typical solitaire shank and fuller toward the head. It blends into the bezel without any visible join, which gives the ring a sculpted, poured look. The angled view shows how the dome curves over the finger and how the bezel rises only a little above it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the worn photos the ring is paired with slim stacking rings and dainty bands, and its bold silhouette holds its own among them. It is a heart ring that feels grown up rather than sweet, and the low setting makes it practical to wear every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur other heart rings hold the stone in claws or add a halo. This design encloses the heart in a bezel on a thick domed band, giving a smoother, bolder look. There are no side stones, so the heart outline itself is the whole story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose a bezel for a heart shaped diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bezel protects the cleft and the point, which are the most exposed parts of a heart cut. It also gives a smooth outline that does not catch on clothing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the bezel make the heart look smaller?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt hides only a thin edge of the stone. The rounded metal rim actually frames the heart shape, so the outline looks clear and bold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the dome band comfortable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The band is rounded on every side, so it rolls smoothly against the neighboring fingers even though it is fuller than a thin band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

Instead of a slim shank with a raised head, the top of the ring swells into a broad dome, and the \u003cstrong\u003eheart shaped diamond\u003c\/strong\u003e is set straight into its surface. A thin rim of metal follows the two lobes and the point of the heart, holding the stone from every side without a single claw.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dome is cut across by a series of grooves, which turn the surface into stacked rounded ribs. Each rib catches its own highlight, so the polished gold flickers as the hand moves and frames the diamond with rhythm rather than with more stones. The ribs are widest across the top and narrow gradually toward the palm, which you can see clearly in the side angle photograph.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the heart sits low and is fully enclosed, there is nothing to snag on knitwear or hair, and the edges of the diamond are protected from knocks. That makes it one of the most practical ways to wear a heart, a shape whose point is usually the most exposed part of the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe photographs show the ring in yellow, white and rose gold, worn alone on a relaxed hand and stacked with slimmer rings on the other fingers. It has presence on its own, and it also works as the anchor of a stack of thin bands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost of our heart lab grown diamond rings hold the stone up in claws on a slender band. This one does the opposite, setting the heart flush inside a wide ribbed dome, so the gold is as much a feature as the diamond. Choose it if you want a bold, modern ring with a low profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow is the heart diamond held in place?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart is flush set, meaning it sits inside a rim of metal cut into the top of the dome. The rim follows the whole outline of the stone, so there are no claws to catch or bend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the dome band heavy to wear?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a substantial ring, noticeably fuller than a thin solitaire band. The dome narrows toward the palm, so the underside of the finger has less metal and the ring stays comfortable when you close your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill the ribs collect dirt?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grooves between the ribs are rounded and open, so a soft brush with warm soapy water clears them easily. A quick clean every week or two keeps the polish bright.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan a wedding band be worn with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The dome sits low and has no projecting head, so a plain or ribbed band can sit right beside it. Because the ring is wide, many people wear the band on the other hand or stack a slim band next to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

Here the pair is a \u003cstrong\u003eheart\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003epear\u003c\/strong\u003e, shapes that echo each other because both have a rounded top and a point. Set next to each other at a slight angle, they look like they are leaning in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach diamond sits in a half bezel, a curved wall of gold that wraps part of the outline and finishes in a small pointed tip. The rest of the girdle is left open, which keeps the stones bright and lets the two outlines meet almost edge to edge in the middle of the ring. The metal is minimal where the stones touch, so from the front the pair reads as one cluster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlong each shoulder runs a line of round pave diamonds of about 1.5 mm, held in tiny beads of metal. They lead the eye toward the pair and add sparkle at the sides of the finger. The profile photograph shows the pave continuing partway down the shank before the band turns plain at the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ring is shown in yellow, white and rose gold and worn in close up portraits, where the two shapes are still easy to tell apart at a normal viewing distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the pear cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pear cut is a teardrop that marries the brilliant faceting of a round with the tapered point of a marquise. Worn with the point toward the fingernail it makes the finger look longer and slimmer. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every pear we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other pear lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost of our pear lab grown diamond rings carry a single pear as the only center stone. This design adds a heart beside it in a two stone toi et moi layout, and both stones sit in half bezels rather than claws. It is a playful, personal choice for someone who wants a ring with a story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat pear is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich stone does the carat option refer to?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe carat option refers to the pear diamond. The heart is cut slightly smaller so the two sit in balance, and both are E color VVS2 lab grown diamonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is a half bezel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA half bezel is a rim of metal that wraps only part of the stone. It protects the edges and gives a clean outline while leaving more of the diamond open to light than a full bezel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo the heart and the pear each get an IGI certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe IGI certificate covers the main pear diamond. The heart and the pave stones are graded to the same E color VVS2 standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan a wedding band sit next to a toi et moi ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, although the pair is wider than a single stone. A slim straight band or a gently curved band both sit comfortably beside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The point can chip if knocked, and the cleft is where claws often sit awkwardly. A bezel handles both at once. A thin wall of metal follows the whole outline, dipping into the cleft and closing around the point, so the diamond is held evenly and the heart shape is drawn in gold or silver.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe profile photograph shows the bezel sitting in a small cup above the band. The shank rises to meet the cup, and the sides below it are open, which lets light into the lower part of the diamond. It also keeps the head from looking heavy from the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band is thin, round and plain. Against it, even a modest heart diamond looks generous, and the front views show how cleanly the rim frames the stone in each gold color.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne photograph shows three heart bezel rings worn on neighboring fingers as a styling idea. On a single finger, as in the other on hand image, the ring is gentle and romantic without looking sugary, which is why the bezel is a favorite for heart shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur other heart rings use five claws or a wide dome band, while this family pairs a slim bezel with a thin band. It is the same bezel heart design as our other bezel heart listings, photographed here with the smallest center stone, so it shows the most delicate version of the ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work.

It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size.

When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy is a bezel good for a heart diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt protects the fine point at the bottom of the heart and fits neatly into the cleft at the top. The whole outline is held evenly, so there are no claws to catch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre the three rings in the styling photo sold together?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, this listing is for one heart bezel ring. The photograph with three rings on three fingers is a styling idea, and each ring is sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes light still reach the diamond in a bezel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the bezel cup has open sides below the rim, as the profile photograph shows. Light enters from the top and the sides, keeping the heart bright.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

This ring uses five claws to do it, one over each lobe, one on each lower side and one cupping the tip. The result is a secure hold that still leaves the cleft at the top and most of the outline open, so the heart shape is instantly recognizable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band is a twist of two slender strands. One carries a row of small round pave diamonds, the other is polished smooth. They spiral around each other along the shoulders, so the diamond line appears to weave toward the center from both sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat gentle movement suits a heart. Instead of the strict lines of a straight pave band, the curves of the twist echo the curves of the lobes, and the ring reads as romantic rather than formal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe side view shows the head lifted on its claws above the crossing strands. The worn photos, with the hand at the cheek and at the forehead, show the ring at a modest center size, and the studio images present it in yellow, white and rose gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmong our heart lab grown diamond rings, this family is the one with a twisted pave band. Our other heart designs are plain band solitaires, bezels or a toi et moi. It is the same design as our other heart twisted pave listings, photographed with a different center size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy five claws on a heart?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart has a fine point and two lobes that need protection. Five claws cover the point and the lobes while keeping the shape clearly visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the point of the heart protected?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A single V shaped claw cups the point, which is the most fragile part of a heart shaped diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the pave continue under the finger?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The pave covers the upper part of one strand, and the back of the twist is plain for comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich way does the heart point?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe point faces down toward the wrist, so the heart looks upright to people facing you. This is the traditional way heart rings are set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy does the point have its own claw?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe point is the thinnest part of a heart diamond. A dedicated claw covers it so it is protected from chips during daily wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the pave go all the way round?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The pave covers roughly the top half of the band on each side, and the lower half is plain metal for comfort and easier resizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The halo follows the heart outline closely, from the two rounded lobes to the point, so the center reads larger and its shape is unmistakable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter stone:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heart shaped lab grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarat options:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat center diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor and clarity:\u003c\/strong\u003e E color, VVS2 clarity, excellent cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertificate:\u003c\/strong\u003e IGI report for the center diamond, included free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSetting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Claws at the lobes and a V claw at the point, inside a diamond halo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccent stones:\u003c\/strong\u003e About twenty 1.3 mm halo diamonds and fourteen 1.5 mm side diamonds, all round brilliant lab grown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pave shoulders over the top half, plain rounded shank below\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetals:\u003c\/strong\u003e 925 sterling silver, 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose and white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 to 13, including half sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade:\u003c\/strong\u003e To order by hand in Surat, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA heart traced in small diamonds\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA heart shaped diamond depends on a clear outline, with two even lobes, a neat cleft and a crisp point. The setting here protects each of those features. Claws hold the lobes, and a V shaped claw covers the point, which is the part of the stone most at risk of chipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAround the center sits a \u003cstrong\u003ehalo\u003c\/strong\u003e of small round diamonds, each set in fine prongs. It traces the heart all the way round, dipping at the cleft and meeting at the point, so the shape reads clearly even from across a room. The halo also adds visible width, which makes the center look larger than a bare heart of the same weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band continues the sparkle. A row of pave diamonds runs down each shoulder from the halo, set in shared prongs so the metal between the stones is minimal. The profile photograph shows the halo raised on a gallery above the band, and the pave running about halfway down the shank before the band turns plain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne lifestyle photograph shows three heart halo rings across three fingers in different center sizes, which gives a sense of the range before choosing a carat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur other heart rings are solitaires, bezel set domes or a toi et moi, and this is the heart listing with a full diamond halo and pave shoulders. It is the same design as our other heart halo listings, photographed here with the smallest center of the group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow many small diamonds are on this ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are about twenty in the halo, around 1.3 mm each, and fourteen on the shoulders, around 1.5 mm each. All are E color VVS2 lab grown diamonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the halo change how big the heart looks?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The halo adds a border of sparkle around the center, so the heart looks wider on the finger than the same stone without a halo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre the three rings in the styling photo included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. That photo compares center sizes of this design on one hand. You receive one ring with the carat you choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow is the point of the heart protected?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA V shaped claw wraps the point of the heart. It covers the thinnest part of the stone and keeps it secure during everyday wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The rim is thin and sits at the top of a small cup, and the cup is raised above the band on open sides. The profile photograph shows the gap beneath the rim, where light can reach the pavilion of the heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the front, the diamond looks large within its frame. The facets radiate from the center toward the lobes and the point, and the polished edge sharpens the outline so the heart stays recognizable even from a distance. The rim dips neatly into the cleft at the top rather than bridging across it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band is a plain round shank that rises up to support the cup. Its even width keeps the ring comfortable and lets a wedding band sit alongside without any cutout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe photographs show the ring on a relaxed hand with a white cuff, a three ring styling shot, and product views in all three gold colors. For someone who wants the security of a bezel without a closed, heavy look, this is the most practical way to set a heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the same bezel heart design as our other bezel heart listings, photographed with a center stone larger than the two smallest versions, so the heart fills more of the finger width. Against our rounded dome heart ring, this one has a much lighter band and a raised head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy is the bezel cup open at the sides?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe open sides let light enter the diamond from below the rim. It keeps the heart brighter than a fully closed cup would.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill the bezel protect the point of the heart?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the rim closes over the point and the cleft, which are the most delicate areas of a heart shaped diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the three ring photograph a set?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, it is a styling image only. This listing is for one heart bezel ring, and other rings are sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The stones are matched in size and set tightly, so the row reads as a smooth ribbon of sparkle. It meets the head directly, and in the profile photograph the row can be seen tucking beneath the basket, which gives the ring a tidy, continuous look from every side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAround the back of the finger the diamonds stop and the band continues in plain polished metal. This keeps the part of the ring that rubs against the palm free of stones, and it gives a jeweler room to resize later if needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe photographs cover yellow, white and rose gold, a close hand shot in rose gold and a frame with three rings worn together.

It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the same heart pave design as our other heart pave listings, photographed with a different center stone size. The claws, the micro prong shoulders and the half pave band are otherwise identical. Our plain band heart solitaires are the simpler alternative if you do not want side stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow many claws hold the heart?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive claws hold it, one on each lobe, one on each side and one at the point. This spreads the grip around the whole outline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the heart sit high on the finger?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt sits at a moderate height on an open basket. That allows light into the diamond while keeping it low enough to avoid most snags.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a wedding band fit beside it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A slim straight band sits alongside the shank, and a pave band continues the line of sparkle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank.

This ring does it with restraint. There are no pave shoulders, no halo and no decorative gallery, only the heart itself framed by a single line of polished metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe full bezel is pressed over the girdle all the way round. At the top it dips into the cleft between the two lobes, and at the bottom it closes over the point, the part of a heart that is most exposed. The front photographs show a symmetrical outline with both lobes the same height, which is what makes a heart read well from a distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the side, the bezel sits on a low cup that the band rises to meet, with space beneath for light. The band itself is narrow and even, with no thickening at the shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe photographs show the ring on crossed hands against a white shirt, a styling image with three heart rings on three fingers, product views in yellow, white and rose gold, and a side view. The bezel keeps the heart safe during everyday wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt shares the bezel heart design of our other bezel heart listings, photographed with a slightly larger center than the smallest version, which fills more of the bezel in the front view. Our five claw heart ring leaves the edge of the stone open, while this one frames it completely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a heart shaped engagement ring too sentimental?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot in this design. The heart is framed by a plain polished bezel with no extra decoration, which gives it a clean, modern look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the heart set point down?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the point faces toward the wrist and the lobes face the fingertip, so the heart reads upright to anyone looking at your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre the other heart rings in the photo included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, the photograph with three rings is a styling idea. This listing is for a single heart bezel ring, and any other rings are sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work.

It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size.

Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a heart shaped diamond hard to wear every day?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot in this setting. The five claws cover the point and lobes, which are the parts most likely to be knocked.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the infinity twist represent?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo strands looping around each other with no clear beginning or end are often read as a symbol of lasting commitment. On this ring one strand is pave and one is polished.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich carat size shows the heart shape best?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLarger sizes make the lobes and point easier to see from a distance. At 2 carat the heart is still clear up close and looks more delicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the halo raised above the band?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The halo sits on an open gallery above the band, which lets more light into the heart and gives the ring a lifted profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow many diamonds are on the shoulders?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are fourteen, seven on each side, each about 1.5 mm. They are round brilliant E color VVS2 lab grown diamonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich carat looks like these photos?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese photos show a large center, so the 3 carat option and above look closest. At 2 carat the halo takes up a larger share of the head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a straight wedding band sit flush?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA small gap may show under the halo because it is raised on a gallery. A slim straight band still sits comfortably alongside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The thin band and fine claws are in balance with the stone, and the whole ring has a delicate, feminine look that suits slender fingers or anyone who likes minimal jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart rests in five claws. The two upper claws follow the curve of each lobe, and the lower one holds the point, a detail that matters because the tip is the most fragile part of a heart shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band has a row of small round diamonds on each side, set in tiny prongs so the metal barely shows between them. They stop around the middle of the shank, where the band turns plain. Seen from the side, the diamond row runs right up under the claw basket, so there is no bare gap between head and shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhotos show the ring in all three gold colors, plus two hand shots in rose gold, one alone and one alongside matching rings in other metals. Choosing a larger carat will make the heart more dominant against the same slim band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the same heart pave design as our other heart pave listings, photographed with a smaller center stone that makes the band look relatively more prominent. Compared with our plain heart solitaires, it adds a half row of diamonds along the band. The 2 to 5 carat choices apply here exactly as on the sibling listings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill this ring look dainty at 2 carat?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The band and claws are fine, so even at 2 carat the ring keeps a delicate look, with the heart as the main feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I stack other rings with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The slim band and plain back make it easy to wear with a thin wedding band or a stacking ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre the small band diamonds lab grown too?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. All the band diamonds are E color VVS2 lab grown diamonds, matching the center.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

Only one strand is set with diamonds, and only across the top half of the ring, so the sparkle is concentrated where it faces outward and the lower half stays smooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the head, five claws secure the heart cut center. Two sit over the rounded lobes, two hold the flanks and one wraps the tip. This pattern keeps the heart from shifting and protects its most vulnerable edges while still showing nearly all of the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA mid sized heart is a practical choice for daily wear. It is large enough to read clearly as a heart, yet it sits low enough on the hand to slip under sleeves and gloves, and the braided band beside it looks proportionate rather than thin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe worn photos show the ring on a hand resting at the shoulder and at the chin. One photo shows it stacked with a slim diamond band for styling, and the studio images show the ring front on in yellow, white and rose gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the same design as our other heart twisted pave listings, photographed with a mid sized center between the smaller and larger versions. This listing is also the only one in the family photographed stacked with a second band. Our other heart rings do not use a braided shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the band in the stacked photo included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The slim band worn alongside the ring in one photo is for styling and is sold separately. This listing is for the engagement ring only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does half pave mean here?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe diamonds cover the upper half of one braided strand. The underside of the ring is plain metal, which is more comfortable and easier to resize.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I stack a band with a braided ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. As the stacked photo shows, a slim band sits comfortably beside it, with small gaps where the strands cross.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

Two small claws hold the rounded lobes and a V claw covers the tip. Keeping the claws small matters on a heart, because too much metal at the lobes can blur the shape, and here the outline stays clear and even.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ehalo\u003c\/strong\u003e is a single row of round diamonds that hugs the heart closely. In this mid size version the halo and center are in classic proportion, with the border wide enough to add real sparkle but not so wide that it competes with the diamond it surrounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band is set as a half eternity, meaning the pave diamonds run from the halo across the top half of the ring. Each stone is held in shared prongs, which keeps the row bright with little metal showing. The lower half of the band is plain and rounded, as the profile photograph shows, along with the open gallery under the halo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhotographs in yellow, white and rose gold show how each metal changes the mood of the ring, and the lifestyle shots show the heart and halo together on the hand, including a comparison with other center sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the same design as our other heart halo listings, photographed with a mid size center between the smallest and largest versions. Compared with our heart solitaires and bezel rings, it adds both a halo and a pave band, giving the most sparkle of any heart style we offer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does half eternity mean on this ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt means the pave diamonds run across the top half of the band only. The lower half is plain, which is more comfortable and allows resizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow many claws hold the heart?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree are visible, one on each lobe and a V claw at the point. This holds the heart securely while keeping its outline clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich metal suits a heart halo best?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhite gold gives an all white, icy look. Yellow and rose gold add warmth and make the white diamonds of the halo stand out more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I choose the halo without the pave band?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. This listing is made as shown, with both the halo and the pave band. Our heart solitaires offer a plainer alternative.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank.

Here each of the five is teardrop shaped, broad where it meets the stone and narrowing to a rounded tip. Two sit high on the lobes, two hold the lower flanks and one closes around the point. The close up front view shows how little of the heart they cover even at this size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe crossover twist runs beneath. A pave strand of small round diamonds and a plain strand cross over one another along each shoulder, then disappear under the wide lobes. From the front you mostly see the diamond, with the twist showing as a sparkling wave either side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA large heart has a lot of presence. The lobes catch light across the top of the finger and the point draws the eye toward the wrist, which lengthens the hand. Keeping the band slim and twisted stops the ring from looking heavy and keeps the focus on the center.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe profile photograph shows the height of the head above the crossing strands. The worn images, with the hand at the neck and at the lips, show the scale of a large heart on the finger, and the studio shots show yellow, white and rose gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the same heart twisted pave design as our other heart twist listings, photographed with the largest center of the group, so the claws look bolder and the band is mostly hidden from the front. Our other heart rings sit on plain bands or bezels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow secure is a large heart in five claws?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVery secure. The claws are wide at the base, and one of them wraps the point, which is the part most at risk of chipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a large heart look too big on a slim finger?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lobes will reach past the band, which many people like for a statement ring. The 2 or 3 carat options give the same look at a softer scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the head sit high?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt sits raised above the twisted band so light reaches the diamond, as the side view shows. A slim wedding band can still be worn alongside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size.

Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a large heart diamond practical to wear every day?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, in a bezel it is. The metal rim protects the point and the edges, which are the parts most likely to be knocked on a large heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow big will a 5 carat heart look on this ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt will look wider than the heart in these photographs, which show a large center close to our 3 carat option. The slim band stays the same width for every size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the bezel add height to the ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA little, because the cup lifts the diamond above the band. The profile photograph shows the height, and the open sides keep it from looking bulky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a 5 carat heart comfortable to wear every day?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, for most people. The basket keeps the stone secure and the slim band keeps weight down, although a large heart will naturally sit taller than a small one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy five claws instead of four?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA heart has two lobes, two sides and a point. Five claws cover each of those areas, so the grip is balanced around the whole shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the rail on the basket do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rail links the claws partway down. It strengthens the head and stops the claws from spreading if the ring is knocked.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

Two claws sit on the rounded lobes, two hold the sides and one guards the point, so the heart keeps its full outline while every fragile edge is covered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter stone:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heart brilliant lab grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarat options:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat center diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor and clarity:\u003c\/strong\u003e E color, VVS2 clarity, excellent cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertificate:\u003c\/strong\u003e IGI report for the center diamond, included free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSetting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Five claw head, including a protective claw at the point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide stones:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Knife edge band with a ridged top, approximately 2 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetals:\u003c\/strong\u003e 925 sterling silver, 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose and white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 to 13, including half sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade:\u003c\/strong\u003e To order by hand in Surat, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFive claws that respect the heart outline\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA heart diamond is only convincing when its shape is crisp, with two full lobes, a clear cleft and a sharp point. The five claw head on this ring is arranged to protect that shape. One claw sits on top of each lobe, one on each side where the heart begins to narrow, and a single claw covers the point at the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive claws may sound like a lot, but each is a slim teardrop of metal, and the close front photograph shows how little of the stone they cover. \u003cstrong\u003eThe point claw matters most\u003c\/strong\u003e, because the tip of a heart is thin and can chip if it is left bare.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band is a knife edge, with the top of the shank rising to a narrow ridge. That ridge meets the head from each side and gives the ring a crisp, tailored feel that balances the softness of the heart shape. The inside of the band is smooth and rounded, so it wears like any slim ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe profile view shows the claws rising from an open basket, lifting the diamond for light. The photos also show a hand wearing three heart solitaires of different sizes, which is a helpful way to compare carat options before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is our knife edge heart solitaire, photographed with a 2 carat center. Our other listings of this design use different center sizes with the same head and band. Compared with our heart bezel rings, the claws here let far more light into the sides of the diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy does a heart diamond need five claws?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive claws protect the two lobes, the two sides and the point. The point claw is the key one, because the tip of a heart is thin and easily chipped.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is a knife edge band?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a band whose top rises to a narrow ridge instead of a rounded curve. It looks slimmer and sharper from the front while keeping full strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich carat size suits a heart diamond best?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHearts show their shape more clearly in larger sizes, so many people choose 2 carat or above. At 2 to 5 carat the lobes and cleft are easy to see from a distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The heart diamond is all curves, and the band beneath it is all angles. A knife edge shank has two flat faces that meet along the top, so light runs along it in one bright stripe, pointing straight to the center stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart is set in five prongs. Look at the rose gold photograph and you can pick them out, a pair at the top of the lobes, a pair on the flanks and one at the tip. \u003cstrong\u003eEach prong is a narrow tapered claw\u003c\/strong\u003e that holds the girdle without covering the facets, so the heart keeps its full face and symmetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe head is lifted on an open basket, visible in the side view. That lift gives the diamond room to breathe and lets it catch light from below, which is especially helpful for a heart, whose wide lobes can otherwise look flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the hand, the heart sits upright with the point toward the wrist, as the on hand photographs show. There is also a photo of three heart rings in different sizes across three fingers, and the design is shown in yellow, white and rose gold so you can compare the metal colors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis listing is the same knife edge heart design as our other listings of this style, photographed with a 1.5 carat center. The prongs and band do not change between them. Compared with our pave band heart rings, this one keeps the band plain so the knife edge ridge is the only detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich way does the heart face on the finger?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe point faces toward the wrist and the lobes toward the fingertip, so the heart reads the right way up to anyone looking at your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes a knife edge band feel sharp?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The ridge is softly rounded at the top and the inside of the band is smooth, so it feels like a regular slim band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a heart diamond a good choice for an engagement ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, if you want a shape with personal meaning. A well cut heart is as bright as other brilliant shapes, and five prongs keep its point safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The shank is slender, the claws are fine, and the diamond sits neatly in the middle of the band rather than overwhelming it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank has a knife edge profile. \u003cstrong\u003eIts top narrows to a soft ridge\u003c\/strong\u003e, so from above you see a fine bright line rather than a flat strip of gold. The effect is subtle, noticeable when the light catches it and invisible otherwise, which suits a minimal ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive claws hold the heart. There is one on each lobe, one on each flank and one guarding the point, and in the front photos they appear as tiny beads of metal around the outline. They keep the stone secure while leaving the facets open, so the heart shows its shape clearly even at a smaller size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn profile the diamond sits in an open basket above the shank. That keeps it bright and makes cleaning simple. One of the hand photographs shows three hearts in different sizes worn together, useful for judging how the larger carat options compare. The ring is shown in yellow, white and rose gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur knife edge heart design is shown in this listing with a 1 carat center, so the band looks relatively wider and the ring more delicate than in our larger carat listings of the same style. Head and band are otherwise unchanged. Compared with our heart halo rings, this has no accent stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill the ring still look dainty with a 2 carat heart?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMostly, yes. The shank and claws stay slim, so even with a larger diamond the ring keeps a light, refined outline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I stack thin bands with this solitaire?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The head is raised on a small basket, so thin plain or pave bands can sit next to it comfortably.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo the claws snag on clothing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRarely. They are small and rounded at the tips, and the point claw sits close to the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank.

Its peaked top reflects a single line of light, and because it is slim, it lets the diamond dominate. That contrast between a big stone and a fine band is what gives the ring its statement look without adding any extra stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe profile photograph shows the tall claws rising from an open basket, holding the heart well above the band so light floods in from the sides.

It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis listing is the same knife edge heart design as our smaller carat listings of this style, photographed with a 3 carat center, so the claws look heavier and the stone extends well beyond the band. Compared with our large heart statement ring on a plain round band, the knife edge shank here gives a sharper line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a large heart diamond secure in five claws?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The claws are made thicker and taller for larger stones, and the point claw protects the most vulnerable part of the heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a big heart sit too high on the finger?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt sits higher than a small stone because the diamond is deeper, but the basket is kept as low as the stone allows so the ring stays wearable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat carat is shown in the photos?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe photos show a 3 carat heart. You can choose 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat, and the head is made for the size you pick.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

That point is the thinnest part of a heart and the most likely to chip, so covering it is a practical detail rather than decoration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAround the heart runs a halo of round lab grown diamonds, each about 1.3 mm and held by tiny beads of metal. The row follows the cleft between the lobes and then tapers down to the tip. On a heart this matters more than on a round or oval, because the shape is only recognizable when the cleft and point are sharp. The halo draws a bright line around both and makes the center look larger than its carat weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe profile photograph shows the halo sitting on an open basket with posts, lifted above a plain round band. Nothing crowds the shoulders, so the ring looks clean from the side and the band stays comfortable between the fingers.

This version keeps the band completely plain, so all of the sparkle is concentrated in the heart and its halo. Two more listings show the same design photographed with smaller center stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build.

It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like.

Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size.

Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy is there a prong at the point of the heart?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt protects the tip, which is the most fragile part of a heart shaped diamond. The small prong wraps the point so everyday knocks land on metal instead of the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the halo make the heart look bigger?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The row of round diamonds adds roughly a millimeter of sparkle on every side, so the heart reads noticeably wider on the finger than the same stone set alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I wear a wedding band next to this ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The halo sits on a raised basket above a plain band, so a slim straight band can sit beside it, although a small gap may show under the halo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the heart set upright or sideways?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is set upright, with the lobes toward the fingertips and the point toward the hand, as shown in the front view photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The result is a border that looks almost continuous. On this ring that border follows every curve of the heart, dipping into the notch at the top and closing to a neat point at the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart itself is held by claws at the widest part of each lobe and a V shaped prong at the tip.

It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the same heart halo design as our other two heart halo listings, shown here with a mid sized center stone. It differs from our heart rings with pave shoulders or a half eternity band because the band carries no diamonds at all. Choose it if you want a heart that looks refined rather than heavily jeweled.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder.

Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond.

E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size.

This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is a micro pave halo?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a frame of very small diamonds held by tiny metal beads instead of claws. Less metal shows between the stones, so the halo looks like a smooth line of sparkle around the heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a slim band strong enough for a large heart diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The band is solid metal and the weight of the head sits on a basket that spreads the load onto the shank, so it is suitable for daily wear at every carat option we offer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill the halo stones fall out?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey are set securely by hand and checked before dispatch. As with any pave, avoid hard knocks and have the ring checked by a jeweler once a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the heart look good in rose gold?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The rose gold version in the photos warms the halo slightly while the heart stays bright white, which many people find softer and more romantic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

It is the traditional heart halo shape, shown in these photographs with the smallest center of the three sizes we pictured.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter stone:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heart brilliant lab grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarat options:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat center diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor and clarity:\u003c\/strong\u003e E color, VVS2 clarity, excellent cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertificate:\u003c\/strong\u003e IGI report for the center diamond, included free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSetting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Claws on the lobes and a V prong at the tip, surrounded by a halo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccent stones:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single halo row of round brilliant lab grown diamonds, roughly 1.3 mm each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smooth polished shank with a rounded profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetals:\u003c\/strong\u003e 925 sterling silver, 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose and white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRing sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 to 13, including half sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade:\u003c\/strong\u003e To order by hand in Surat, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe traditional heart halo, done cleanly\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA heart is the one diamond shape that carries its meaning on the surface, and this setting is built to keep that shape easy to read. The center is held at the two lobes by slim claws, and the point sits in a V prong that folds around the tip. That V is worth having on any heart, because the tip is thin and exposed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe halo is a single ring of round diamonds, about 1.3 mm each, set with small beads so the stones sit close together. It runs into the dip between the lobes and back out again, so the notch at the top stays well defined. From the front the halo and heart merge into one larger heart of light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnderneath, the halo rests on an open basket with slim posts. The profile photograph shows how the head rises above the shank and how light can enter the diamond from the sides. The shank itself is smooth and rounded, with no stones or engraving, so it is comfortable and simple to size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can see the ring in yellow, white and rose gold, plus one photo on the hand beside two larger versions of the same heart halo. Every center we set is an E color VVS2 lab grown diamond from 2 to 5 carats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this ring differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the same heart halo design as our two other heart halo listings, photographed here with a smaller center, so the halo looks proportionally wider in these images. Unlike our heart rings with diamond shoulders or a pave band, its shank is completely plain. It suits anyone who wants the familiar heart halo look in its most classic form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is a V prong?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA V prong is a small chevron of metal that wraps the point of the heart. It holds the tip firmly and shields it from knocks, which is why it is standard on heart and pear shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich way does the heart face?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart faces upright, lobes toward the fingertips and point toward the wrist, exactly as it appears in the front view photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the photo show the carat I will receive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe photos show a smaller center than we sell. Your ring will have the 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center you choose, and the halo is scaled to fit it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a heart halo easy to match with a wedding band?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The plain shank and raised halo leave room for a straight band to sit beside it, with a slight gap under the halo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2

The band carries a row of small round diamonds along its upper half, so on its own it reads as a pretty heart solitaire with a pave band, as the last photograph shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eenhancer\u003c\/strong\u003e is the second piece. It is made of two plain polished bands, one above and one below, joined at the front by a heart shaped outline of tiny diamonds. The top of the heart outline sits on the upper band and the point sits on the lower one, leaving an opening in the middle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the engagement ring slides between the two bands, its heart diamond sits in that opening and the pave outline frames it as a halo. The pave band of the engagement ring then lies between the two plain bands, so the stack looks like three rows, which is why the photographs show a single, wide ring with a halo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can wear the engagement ring alone before the wedding and add the enhancer afterward, or wear both together every day. The white and rose gold photographs show how the finished stack looks in each color.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat is included in the bridal ring set\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis listing is a bridal ring set: the engagement ring and its matching wedding band, made together as a pair in the metal you choose. Both rings are cast in the same alloy in the same size, so the color of the two pieces matches exactly and the band sits against the engagement ring the way it does in the photographs. The carat size you select refers to the center diamond of the engagement ring. The diamonds in the band are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany couples give the engagement ring at the proposal and keep the band for the wedding day. Both rings arrive together in one box, with the IGI report for the center diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the heart cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart cut is a modified brilliant with a cleft at the top and a point at the base, the hardest of the fancy shapes to cut well because both lobes must match exactly. It is one of the shapes we are asked for most often, and every heart we set is cut to excellent proportions and graded by IGI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow this bridal ring set differs from our other heart lab grown diamond rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost of our heart lab grown diamond rings are single rings with a fixed halo or a plain solitaire head. This set gives you both looks, because the halo is built into the enhancer and can be added or removed. The enhancer also works as the wedding band, framing the ring on both sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a lab grown diamond is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It is pure crystallized carbon with the same cubic crystal structure as a mined diamond, grown above ground by one of two methods: chemical vapor deposition, known as CVD, or high pressure high temperature growth, known as HPHT. The Federal Trade Commission in the United States recognizes it as a diamond, and the gem laboratories grade it on the same color, clarity and cut scales used for mined stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is what that means for a ring you will wear every day:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness 10 on the Mohs scale.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing natural is harder. It will not scratch from ordinary wear and it keeps its polish for a lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefractive index of 2.42 and dispersion of 0.044\u003c\/strong\u003e, identical to a mined diamond. The brilliance and fire are those of diamond because the stone is diamond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt tests as diamond.\u003c\/strong\u003e A standard diamond tester reads it as diamond. Only a gem laboratory with spectroscopic equipment can tell whether a diamond grew in the earth or in a laboratory, and that origin is written on the IGI report and laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceable origin.\u003c\/strong\u003e A lab grown diamond comes from a known production run rather than a mine, with no mining footprint and a clear chain of custody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. Those are different materials that only imitate the look of diamond. The difference between a lab grown diamond and a mined diamond is origin and price, not chemistry, optics or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eE color and VVS2 clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery center diamond we set is graded \u003cstrong\u003eE color\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eVVS2 clarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, on every metal and every carat weight. E sits in the colorless range, one step below D, and looks icy white to the eye in any metal, including yellow and rose gold. VVS2 means very very slightly included: any inclusions are so small that a trained grader has difficulty finding them under ten times magnification, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Cut, polish and symmetry are graded excellent. Accent diamonds are matched to the same E color and VVS2 clarity, so the whole ring reads as one even white.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIGI certificate included free\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond comes with a grading report from IGI, the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world, with laboratories in Antwerp, New York, Mumbai and Surat. There is no extra charge for it on any metal or any carat weight. The report records the shape and cutting style, the measurements, the carat weight, the color grade, the clarity grade, the cut, polish and symmetry, and it states in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. The report number is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so the certificate and the stone can always be matched, and it can be checked online on the IGI website at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the report with the ring. It is the document your insurer and any future valuer will ask for, and it is independent confirmation of exactly what you bought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your metal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is made to order in ten metals, so the version you choose is the version we build. There is no plating over a base metal and no filled or bonded gold anywhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e925 sterling silver\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most affordable way to own the design. It is 92.5 percent pure silver, bright white, and it takes a high polish. Silver is softer than gold and it will pick up fine surface marks with daily wear, which most people come to like. It can also tarnish, and a soft polishing cloth brings it straight back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 41.7 percent pure gold. It is the hardest and the most scratch resistant of the three gold alloys, which makes it a sensible choice for hands that work. The color is a little paler than 14K.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 58.5 percent pure gold and it is what most engagement rings sold in the United States are made from. It balances a warm, convincing color against real everyday durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e18K gold\u003c\/strong\u003e is 75 percent pure gold. It has the deepest, richest color and the most weight in the hand. It is also the softest of the three, so it marks a little more readily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYellow gold is gold alloyed with silver and copper. Rose gold takes more copper, which gives the warm pink tone and also makes it the hardest of the three colors. White gold is alloyed with palladium or nickel and then finished with rhodium plating, which is what gives it that bright white face. Rhodium wears thin over time and wants redoing roughly every one to two years, which any jeweler can do quickly and cheaply. Every gold ring is stamped with its karat mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your carat size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is offered with a 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat center diamond. Carat is a unit of weight, 0.2 grams, and the size across the face grows more slowly than the weight, so a 4 carat heart is noticeably larger than a 2 carat but not twice as wide. The photographs may show a different carat size from the one you choose. The version you select is the one we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most chosen size. It is unmistakably a statement diamond and still sits comfortably under a glove or a coat sleeve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clear step up in presence and photographs beautifully. This is where most people land when they want the ring to be the first thing anyone notices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the finger generously and suits longer fingers and larger ring sizes particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e is a red carpet diamond, the size people ask about across a room, and one that would be out of reach for most people as a mined stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run jewelry workshop in Surat, in Gujarat, India. Surat is where roughly nine out of every ten diamonds in the world are cut and polished, and it is also one of the main centers of lab grown diamond production. We are not a dropshipper and we do not hold finished stock. When your order comes in, a goldsmith casts your metal in your size, a setter places every diamond by hand under a microscope, and the piece is polished, checked against the IGI report and photographed before it leaves us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking takes ten to fourteen working days for most orders. Shipping is free worldwide and fully insured, and it is normally three to seven working days once the ring has left the bench. Buying direct from the bench is the reason a ring like this costs what it does here rather than several times more on a high street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for your ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond attracts skin oil and hand cream, and a film of it on the underside of the stone is the single most common reason a ring looks dull. Soak the ring for ten minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently behind and underneath the stones with a soft toothbrush, rinse and pat dry with a lint free cloth. Once every two weeks is plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake the ring off before the gym, gardening, swimming pools and hot tubs, and before using bleach or oven cleaner. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold over time and it will do nothing good to sterling silver. Store it on its own, because diamond will scratch other jewelry. Have the claws checked by a jeweler once a year, which takes two minutes and is usually free. White gold will want its rhodium refreshed every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask about this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is included in this bridal set?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe set includes the heart engagement ring with its pave band and the double band enhancer with the heart halo outline. The two are made to fit together as a stack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I wear the engagement ring without the enhancer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The engagement ring is complete on its own as a heart solitaire with a pave band. The enhancer adds the halo and the two outer bands when you want the fuller look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does the enhancer stay in place?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe enhancer is sized to match the engagement ring, and the heart sits inside the pave opening, which stops the rings from turning against each other. Both are made in the same ring size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow many small diamonds are there in the set?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are about thirty. Roughly sixteen of about 1.3 mm sit along the engagement ring band and about fourteen of about 1 mm form the heart outline on the enhancer, all E color VVS2 lab grown diamonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically, physically and optically the same as a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs scale, with the same brilliance and fire. The only difference is where it formed, which is why it is graded by the same laboratories on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the center diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe center diamond is E color and VVS2 clarity on every metal and every carat size. E is in the colorless range and VVS2 means no inclusion is visible to the eye, and very hard to find even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The center diamond comes with an IGI grading report at no extra charge. It confirms the carat weight, color, clarity and cut, states that the diamond is lab grown, and matches the report number laser inscribed on the girdle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill a jeweler or a diamond tester say it is a diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond tests as diamond on every standard tester because it is diamond. Telling lab grown from mined needs advanced laboratory equipment, and the IGI report already states the origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond the same as moissanite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Moissanite is silicon carbide, a different gemstone with more rainbow fire and a lower hardness. This ring is set with lab grown diamond, which is carbon, grades on the diamond scale and tests as diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ring sizes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe make sizes 1.5 to 13, including every half size. Choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure a ring that already fits the correct finger, or ask a local jeweler to size you, and remember that fingers run slightly larger in hot weather and late in the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the ring be resized later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn most cases yes. Any jeweler can work on a plain section of shank. Resizing is harder where the band is set with stones all the way round, and moving more than about two sizes is better done by remaking the shank. Contact us first and we will tell you what is possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long will it take to arrive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in our workshop in Surat. Allow ten to fourteen working days for making, plus three to seven working days for free insured worldwide shipping. If you have a proposal date, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the metal solid, or is it plated?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is solid throughout. 925 sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and the gold options are solid 10K, 14K or 18K alloy stamped with the karat mark. Nothing in this range is gold plated, gold filled or gold bonded. White gold carries a standard rhodium finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you offer engraving?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, free of charge. Tell us the wording when you order and we will engrave the inside of the shank. Most people choose a date, initials or a short phrase of up to about twenty five characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is your returns policy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReturns are accepted within thirty days of delivery on an unworn ring in its original packaging, with the IGI report. Because every piece is made to order, engraved rings are handled case by case. Write to us and we will sort it out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
