Asscher Cut Lab Grown Diamond Three Stone Engagement Ring with Trillion Side Stones, E Color VVS2

Asscher Cut Lab Grown Diamond Three Stone Engagement Ring with Trillion Side Stones, E Color VVS2

An Asscher cut lab grown diamond flanked by two trillion cut side stones, all prong set on a fine plain band. It is a classic trilogy arrangement handled with unusual restraint, no halo, no pave, nothing on the shank at all, so the whole design rests on the contrast between the square step cut centre and the two triangular stones pointing outward from it. The Asscher reflects light in broad flashes through its long parallel facets while the trillions catch it in sharper bursts, which is what keeps a three stone ring from looking flat. Every diamond is a laboratory grown diamond, identical in carbon structure, hardness and brilliance to a mined diamond, graded E colour and VVS2 clarity. Each ring is made to order in our own Surat workshop and ships with a free IGI certificate for the centre stone.

Metal options

This ring is made to order in ten metal choices, so you can match it to jewellery you already wear.

• 925 Sterling Silver
• 10K Yellow Gold, 10K Rose Gold, 10K White Gold
• 14K Yellow Gold, 14K Rose Gold, 14K White Gold
• 18K Yellow Gold, 18K Rose Gold, 18K White Gold

All gold options are solid gold, never plated or filled. White gold is finished with rhodium for a bright white surface and is the metal shown in the photographs, where it keeps the focus entirely on the three stones. Yellow and rose gold outline each stone more strongly and give the trilogy a warmer, more antique character.

Frequently asked questions

What is a trillion cut diamond

A trillion is a triangular stone with three equal sides and brilliant style faceting. Cut shallow and wide, it covers a lot of surface for its weight, which is why it is so often used as a side stone, and its straight edges sit neatly against a square or rectangular centre. The pointed corners are usually protected by prongs, as they are here.

What is an Asscher cut diamond

An Asscher is a square step cut, meaning its facets run in long straight lines parallel to the edges of the stone rather than in the triangular pattern of a brilliant. The corners are cropped, so the outline is an octagon that reads as a square. Looking into an Asscher you see a series of concentric squares receding toward the centre, an effect jewellers call the hall of mirrors.

Is a lab grown diamond a real diamond

Yes. A lab grown diamond is real diamond. It has the same carbon crystal structure, the same hardness of 10 on the Mohs scale, the same refractive index and the same fire and brilliance as a mined diamond. The only difference is that it was grown in a controlled laboratory over a few weeks instead of underground over billions of years. No jeweller can tell the difference by eye, only specialist equipment reading growth patterns can separate the two.

What does the carat weight refer to on this ring

The carat selection is the weight of the Asscher centre stone. The two trillion side stones are proportioned to the centre and included in addition, so a larger centre selection comes with correspondingly larger sides.

Why does clarity matter more on an Asscher cut

Step cuts have large open facets and no busy sparkle to distract the eye, so anything inside the stone is easier to see than it would be in a brilliant cut. That is why we set only VVS2 clarity in this design. At VVS2 any inclusions need 10x magnification to find, so the open facets stay clean.

Does this ring come with a certificate

Yes. Every ring ships with a free IGI certificate for the centre stone. IGI is the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world. The certificate confirms the carat weight, the E colour grade, the VVS2 clarity grade and the laboratory grown origin. There is no extra charge for the certificate.

What does E colour VVS2 actually mean

E colour is the second highest grade on the diamond colour scale and sits inside the colourless range, so the diamond looks bright white with no warm or yellow tint. VVS2 means very very slightly included, the second highest clarity tier. Any inclusions are so small that a trained grader needs 10x magnification to find them and they are completely invisible to the naked eye.

Why buy a lab grown diamond

A lab grown diamond gives you a materially identical stone for a fraction of the price of a mined equivalent, and on a three stone ring that saving applies across all three. Because the origin of every stone is documented from the moment it is grown, a lab grown diamond is conflict free by definition. Growing a diamond also avoids the open pit excavation, land disruption and water use that mining a comparable stone requires, so the environmental cost is considerably lower.
