{"product_id":"east-west-oval-lab-grown-diamond-bezel-ring","title":"East West Oval Lab Grown Diamond Bezel Engagement Ring in Silver, 10K, 14K and 18K Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn oval laboratory grown diamond turned sideways across the finger and wrapped in a smooth rim of metal. Setting an oval east west, rather than pointing along the finger, gives it a modern, understated look, and the bezel makes it one of the most practical engagement rings you can wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentre stone: Oval brilliant laboratory grown diamond, set east west\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour and clarity: E colour, VVS2 clarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertificate: IGI, included free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Full bezel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent stones: None, a true solitaire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetals: 925 silver, 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose and white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade: To order in Surat, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEast west\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost ovals are set north south, running along the finger to lengthen the hand. Turned east west, the same stone reads wider and more architectural, and it sits lower and closer to the hand. It is a quietly unconventional choice that looks especially good stacked with other bands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy a bezel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bezel is a continuous rim of metal that surrounds the stone completely. There are no claws to catch on knitwear, hair or gloves, and the girdle of the diamond is fully protected from knocks. The polished rim also frames the stone in a clean line of metal colour, which adds to the modern look. For anyone who works with their hands, a bezel is the most secure way to wear a large diamond every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat laboratory grown means here\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA laboratory grown diamond is a diamond. It is crystallised carbon with the same cubic structure, the same 10 on the Mohs scale, the same refractive index of 2.42 and the same dispersion as a mined stone. Ours are grown by chemical vapour deposition and high pressure high temperature methods, then cut and polished by hand. This is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. A gemmologist testing it will read diamond, because it is diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMetals\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K or 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. Because the bezel outlines the stone in metal, the colour you choose becomes part of the look: yellow gold gives a warm frame, white gold disappears into the diamond, and rose gold softens it. 10K is the hardest alloy, 14K is the everyday balance, and 18K is the richest colour but the softest metal. White gold is rhodium plated and will want replating every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEvery centre stone arrives IGI certified\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe centre diamond is graded by IGI, the International Gemological Institute, and the certificate comes with the ring at no extra charge. It states the carat weight, the E colour grade, the VVS2 clarity grade, the measurements and the girdle inscription, and confirms in writing that the stone is laboratory grown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run workshop in Surat, India, where most of the world's diamonds are cut and polished. The bezel is formed to the exact outline of your oval and burnished over its edge by hand, and the ring is finished for your carat weight and finger size. Allow two to three weeks for making, plus shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLooking after it\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm water, mild washing up liquid and a soft toothbrush. A bezel has no claws to clean around, so a quick brush on the underside of the stone is enough. Take it off for the gym, gardening and swimming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCustom orders\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe can change the prongs, the band or the setting of this design.
