That construction is what gives the band its depth, because at any point around the ring one strand is in front of the other and the shadow between them reads as real space rather than surface engraving. The leaves are cut individually and lifted slightly away from the metal at the tip, which catches light on their edge and stops them looking pressed into the shank. Above all of that the cushion sits square in four plain claws. A cushion is the right centre stone for this design because its outline is soft and curved rather than sharp, so it agrees with the vines instead of arguing with them, which a step cut in the same setting would.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCenter stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: lab grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: cushion cut, softened square outline with rounded corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat weight: 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat, selected at checkout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor grade: E\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity grade: VVS2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut and polish: excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSymmetry: excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: four claws on an open basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne round brilliant set into each shoulder where a leaf turns from the vine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor grade: E to F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity grade: VS or better\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank is formed as two entwined vines that cross beneath the head and rejoin at the back, carved with individually cut leaves.

It has the same carbon crystal structure, hardness and optical behaviour as a mined diamond and is graded on the same scales by the same laboratories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. An IGI certificate for the center stone is included at no extra charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the leaves cast or carved\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey are cast and then cut and lifted by hand, which is what gives the edges their sharpness and the slight variation between rings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the entwined vines catch on clothing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe strands are burnished smooth and the leaf tips are turned inward rather than standing proud, so the ring runs smooth under a fingertip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy a cushion rather than a rectangular stone\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe soft curved outline of a cushion sits naturally against organic metalwork. A sharp cornered stone tends to fight it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithin about a size.
