The stone sits low, the band is narrow, and there is nothing else in the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn elongated cushion is defined by its length to width ratio, and that single number is worth more attention than carat weight when you are choosing one. At around 1.10 to 1.20 the stone still reads as a soft square. Past about 1.30 it becomes clearly rectangular and starts to lengthen the finger. Beyond 1.50 it looks closer to a radiant. Two stones of identical weight sitting at opposite ends of that range look like different shapes on the hand, which is why we quote the ratio rather than leaving you to judge from a photograph.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCenter stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Elongated cushion cut, soft rectangle with rounded corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: Lab grown diamond, IGI certified\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 make, excellent luster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Four claws on an open basket, set low to the finger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertification: IGI certificate of the center stone is included at no extra charge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound brilliant cut lab grown diamonds pave set along the shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBead set flush into the top surface so the band stays smooth to the touch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBase of the shank left plain for resizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatched to the center stone in color and clarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank is fine and rounded on the inside, pave set along its upper length. Keeping it narrow is what allows a large cushion to look as wide as it does, because the eye has almost no metal to measure the stone against.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMetal options\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose from 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. White gold is shown here and is the usual choice for a high colour stone, since a white setting adds no warmth to the diamond. Yellow gold gives a classic contrast and outlines each pave stone. Rose gold sits between the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is available in a full range of US sizes. Select your size at checkout.

On a cushion, around 1.10 reads as a soft square, past 1.30 it becomes clearly rectangular, and beyond 1.50 it starts to resemble a radiant. It affects the look far more than a small difference in carat weight does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I request a particular ratio?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Tell us whether you want the stone closer to square or clearly elongated and we will select accordingly before the ring is made.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does a cushion cut sparkle?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts larger facets give broad slow flashes of light rather than the fine rapid scintillation of a round brilliant. Many people describe the effect as candlelight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is the pave kept small?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo it supports the centre stone instead of competing with it. Larger accents would shorten the apparent length of the cushion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond has the same carbon crystal structure, hardness, refractive index and fire as a mined diamond. The only difference is that it was grown in a controlled environment rather than pulled from the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill I receive a certificate?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. An IGI certificate for the center stone is included with every order at no additional cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The base of the shank is left free of stones for exactly that reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond gives you the same optical and physical properties as a mined stone at a far better price for the size and quality. Because the growth conditions are controlled, high color and high clarity stones like the E VVS2 used here are available in large carat weights that would be rare and costly in mined goods. It is also a traceable choice, with a known origin and no mining footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur services\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIGI certificate of the center stone included free with every ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order in the metal, carat weight and size you choose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull range of US ring sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom design and matching wedding bands on request\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand finishing and quality inspection before dispatch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure insured worldwide shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mapple Gems\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a fine jewelry maker based in Surat, India, a city that has cut and polished diamonds for generations.
