{"product_id":"asscher-cut-moissanite-full-eternity-pave-hidden-halo-ring-31","title":"Asscher Cut Moissanite Full Eternity Pave Ring with Hidden Halo in Silver, 10K, 14K and 18K Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn asscher cut moissanite in four claws on a fine band set with micropave around its entire circumference, with a hidden halo of small stones facing outward beneath the centre. There is no plain metal anywhere on the shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe make it to order in our workshop in Surat, India. Family run, every ring finished and checked by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA full eternity of pave on a fine band\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost pave solitaires stop their stones partway down each shoulder, because the underside of a band takes the most wear and because stopping makes resizing possible. This one does not stop. The pave runs the complete circle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you gain is that the ring never goes dark. Turn your hand, hold a glass, rest your palm on a table, and there are still stones facing outward. A half coverage band looks plain from underneath; this one does not have an underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you give up is stated plainly in the questions below: this ring is very difficult to resize. That is not a flaw in the making, it is the direct consequence of putting stones all the way round, and it is the single most important thing to understand before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlease read this if you are comparing our fine pave bands\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe make four slim pave banded asscher rings and the differences are easy to state plainly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFine Pave Hidden Halo\u003c\/strong\u003e has scalloped pave over about half of each shoulder, plain edges, a hidden halo, and a plain lower band. The lightest, and the easiest to resize.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMilgrain Pave\u003c\/strong\u003e also covers about half, but its pave is bordered with beading and a single round accent flanks the centre on each side. No hidden halo. The vintage minded one, and the least expensive of the four.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFull Eternity Pave\u003c\/strong\u003e runs pave the whole way round the band and adds a hidden halo. The most sparkle and the most stones, but it can barely be resized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe hidden halo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeneath the centre, around the basket, sits a ring of small stones facing outward rather than upward. You do not see them looking down at the ring. They appear in profile, and they fill the space under a stone that sits fairly high, which would otherwise read as a dark gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn this ring the hidden halo completes the idea: with pave around the band and stones under the stone, there is no angle from which the ring shows bare metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe stone\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn asscher is a square step cut with cropped corners, so its outline is an octagon that reads as a square. The facets are cut in concentric squares that draw the eye down into the stone, an effect jewellers call the hall of mirrors. It flashes in broad blocks rather than sparkling, so the small brilliants around it supply movement the centre deliberately lacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery centre stone is Colorless in body colour and VVS in clarity, and every accent is Colorless and VVS too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoissanite has a higher refractive index than diamond, which in a step cut shows as depth rather than fire, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it stands up to daily wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose the centre from 2 carat up to 5 carat. The fine band flatters a larger stone and this design carries 4 and 5 carat centres very well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMetals\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K or 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. Shown in white gold, which suits full coverage pave because metal and stones read as one continuous circle of light with no colour break. Yellow gold draws the band as a warm line beneath the stones, which is handsome but slightly interrupts the continuity that this design is built on. Rose gold is soft and pretty. Silver is the most affordable route into this many set stones. 10K is the hardest and holds fine beading longest, which matters when the beading goes all the way round. 14K is the everyday balance. 18K is the richest but softest, and on a fine fully set band we would lean toward 14K or 10K. White gold is rhodium plated and needs replating every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade to order\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNothing is taken off a shelf. We draw the fine band, cut a seat for every stone around the full circumference, set and bead each one, set the hidden halo, then set the centre and polish for your metal, centre size and finger size after your order arrives. There are a great many stones here and each is beaded individually. That is how we offer twenty one ring sizes and forty combinations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarm water, a drop of mild washing up liquid and a soft toothbrush, worked right around the band rather than only across the top. Pay particular attention beneath the centre, since the hidden halo sits where soap collects. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Take it off for the gym, gardening and swimming pools, and keep it away from bleach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAlso in this family\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOther slim pave banded designs we make, so you can see the whole choice in one place:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree Quarter Pave\u003c\/strong\u003e, pave around three quarters of the band with a hidden halo collar, the middle option\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eOther designs with a hidden halo we make, so you can see the whole choice in one place:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwisted Vine Hidden Halo\u003c\/strong\u003e, one strand paved and one plain, shoulder length, with a hidden halo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePave Bezel\u003c\/strong\u003e, stones set into the bezel rim wall itself, plus a hidden halo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlain Band Hidden Halo\u003c\/strong\u003e, a plain rounded band with the hidden halo as the only decoration, the cheapest way into one\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe would rather point you to a different ring of ours than sell you the wrong one. If none of these is quite right, tell us what you are after and we will say so plainly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions we are asked\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e Barely, and we want to be direct about it. A band set all the way round cannot be cut and rejoined without disturbing the setting. We would rather spend time getting your size right before we make it than disappoint you afterwards. If you expect your finger size to change, our half coverage designs are the sensible choice and we would genuinely rather sell you one of those.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, reasonably. The band is fine and straight sided. Stones on the underside do not affect how a second ring sits beside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo stones on the underside get damaged?\u003c\/strong\u003e They wear more than stones on top, which is simply true of any full eternity band. Moissanite at 9.25 on the Mohs scale copes well, and the stones are set low. It is worth knowing rather than worrying about.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill inclusions show in a step cut?\u003c\/strong\u003e Not at VVS. That grade is what makes a step cut worth doing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
