East West Emerald Cut Lab Grown Diamond Engagement Ring on a Slim Band, E Color VVS2

East West Emerald Cut Lab Grown Diamond Engagement Ring on a Slim Band

A solitaire engagement ring set with an emerald cut lab grown diamond turned east west on a slim round band. Every ring is made to order and handcrafted by Mapple Gems in Surat, India, and every center stone ships with a free IGI certificate. The stone is held at its corners by fine claws and the shank is a simple round wire, so almost nothing interrupts the outline of the diamond lying across the finger.

Frequently asked questions

Is a lab grown diamond a real diamond? Yes. A lab grown diamond has the same carbon crystal structure, hardness and brilliance as a mined diamond. The only difference is that it is grown in a laboratory rather than extracted from the earth. It is graded by the same laboratories using the same criteria.

What color and clarity is the diamond in this ring? The emerald cut center stone is E color and VVS2 clarity. That matters more on an emerald cut than on other shapes, because its long open facets act like windows into the stone and show any tint or inclusion readily.

What is an east west setting? The long axis of the stone runs across the finger rather than down it. It is a single change that makes a very traditional cut read as contemporary, and it is currently one of the fastest growing requests in engagement rings.

Does an east west emerald cut look bigger? On the hand it reads wider rather than longer. Because the full length of the stone is visible across the finger instead of running away from the eye, it often appears more substantial than the same stone set the conventional way.

Why such a slim band? The narrower the shank, the less metal there is to compare the stone against, so the diamond dominates. It also keeps the ring light and easy to wear beside other rings.

Does this ring come with certification? Yes. Every center stone ships with an IGI certificate at no additional charge. IGI is one of the largest independent gemological laboratories grading lab grown diamonds.

Is this ring in stock? Every Mapple Gems ring is made to order rather than held as stock, so it is always available to buy. Production typically takes 7 to 10 business days before shipping.
