Elongated Cushion Cut Lab Grown Diamond Hidden Halo Statement Ring, E Color VVS2

Elongated Cushion Cut Lab Grown Diamond Hidden Halo Statement Ring

This is the elongated cushion built for a large centre stone. The same rounded rectangular cut and hidden halo construction, but photographed and proportioned for the upper end of the carat range, where an elongated cushion covers a genuinely striking amount of the finger. At 4 and 5 carat this shape reads larger than a round of equal weight because the length works for it, and the rounded corners mean there are no fragile points to protect even at that size. E colour, VVS2 clarity throughout, free IGI certificate for the centre diamond. Made to order in Surat in ten metals and four carat weights.

Metal options

Available in 925 sterling silver, 10K yellow gold, 10K rose gold, 10K white gold, 14K yellow gold, 14K rose gold, 14K white gold, 18K yellow gold, 18K rose gold and 18K white gold. At larger carat weights the metal choice matters more than usual, because there is more setting to see. White gold disappears against the stone and lets the diamond dominate. Yellow and rose gold frame it and make the ring read as jewellery rather than as a single stone. For a heavy centre stone we recommend 14K, which is harder than 18K and better at holding a large head steady over years of wear.

Ring size

Every ring is made to your finger size, so choose your size at checkout. If you are unsure, measure the inside diameter of a ring you already wear or ask us for a free size guide before ordering.

Custom orders

We can add pave along the shoulders, remove the hidden halo, raise or lower the setting height, or adjust the length to width ratio of the cushion. For any other customization request please contact us at https://mapplegems.com/pages/contact and we will quote it before you order.

Frequently asked questions

Is a 5 carat ring practical for daily wear?
It is heavier and sits higher than a 2 carat, so it catches on clothing more and you notice it on the hand. Plenty of people wear one every day, but if you work with your hands a lot, 2 or 3 carat is the more comfortable choice. Nothing about the construction changes between sizes.

Does a big stone need a stronger setting?
The prongs are made proportionally heavier as the carat weight goes up, and we recommend 14K over 18K at 4 and 5 carat for the extra hardness. A yearly prong check keeps a large stone secure.

How does this differ from your other elongated cushion rings?
The construction is the same family. This listing is written and photographed for buyers going large on the centre stone, one has a pave band, and one has a plain yellow gold shank. Compare the galleries and pick the look you prefer, then choose your carat.

Why do rounded corners matter?
Sharp cornered cuts like princess and emerald need protective prongs at each corner because that is where chips start. A cushion's corners are already rounded, so there is no weak point, which is one reason the shape suits large stones.

Is a lab grown diamond a real diamond?
Yes. Same carbon structure, hardness and brilliance as a mined diamond. Only the origin differs.

Do I get a certificate?
Yes. A free IGI certificate for the centre stone comes with every order, listing colour, clarity, cut grade and carat weight.

How long does it take to make?
Production usually takes ten to fourteen working days, plus shipping time to your address.

Why buy a lab grown diamond

A lab grown diamond gives the same hardness, brilliance and fire as a mined stone at a fraction of the price, and that gap is what makes a certified 5 carat centre stone possible at all at this level. It is created without mining, so there is no excavation and no doubt about origin. Every centre stone we set is independently certified.
