The centre stone lies horizontal and the side stones stand vertical, so the three of them together draw a cross rather than a line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlmost every side stone design in existence runs in the same direction as the centre: an oval with ovals, an emerald with baguettes laid flat, all of them extending one axis. Crossing the axes instead does something none of those can. The horizontal centre stone makes the finger read wider at the knuckle, which is what an east west setting is for, while the two upright baguettes extend the design along the finger and give back the length the rotation took away. The result is a ring that occupies more of the hand in both directions at once, from the same total weight of diamond. There is a setting consequence too. Because the baguettes stand upright, their long edges face outward rather than toward the centre stone, so they cannot be shaped to the oval's curve. Instead each one is set a hair clear of the girdle with a fine wall of metal between, which is what stops the straight edge and the curve fighting each other where they meet.\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: oval brilliant cut, set east west across the finger\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, reinforced at the exposed ends of the outline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSide stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: lab grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: tapered baguette, step faceted, one standing upright on each side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrientation: long axis running with the band, set clear of the centre stone girdle with a fine wall between\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 slim and completely plain, running straight into the base of the baguettes.

It is carbon in the same crystal structure as a mined diamond, with the same hardness and the same optical properties, graded on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.

Setting each a hair clear with a fine wall of metal between is what stops the two shapes fighting where they meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the baguettes secure standing upright\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
