Most accented shanks aim for coverage: stones packed as tightly as the metal allows, so the band reads as a continuous line of light. Setting them apart does the opposite and gets a different result. Each accent is surrounded by polished gold on both sides, and polished gold is a mirror. Instead of one stone's brightness merging into the next, every accent is isolated against a reflective ground and reads individually, the way a single star reads against a dark sky and a hundred stars read as a smear. It also changes what the ring does at a distance: dense pave dissolves into a grey line beyond a metre or two, while spaced accents stay visible as discrete points of light much further away. The trade off is that spacing exposes the metal, so every millimetre of the shank between stones has to be finished properly, since there is nowhere for a poor polish to hide.\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: elongated cushion cut\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 above a hidden halo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHidden halo: round brilliants set around the complete outline of the basket, visible in profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShank accents: round brilliants set individually with polished metal between each one\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 fine and rounded, with the accents descending in size as they travel away from the head so the spacing looks even rather than repetitive. The lower half is plain, which keeps the ring comfortable and makes resizing simple.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMetal options\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K or 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. Every metal is fully hallmarked. Yellow gold is shown in the photographs, and a warm metal suits spaced accents particularly well because the contrast between gold and white diamond is what makes each stone read separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ring is made to your finger size.

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. An IGI certificate for the center stone is included at no extra charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy space the accents instead of setting pave\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause polished metal between stones acts as a mirror and lets each accent read individually. Dense pave merges into a single line and loses definition at a distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is an elongated cushion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA cushion cut with a length to width ratio above about 1.20, so it reads as a soft cornered rectangle rather than a square, and covers more of the finger for the same weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a spaced shank easier to keep clean\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. There are far fewer seats to trap dust and lotion than in continuous pave, and the plain sections wipe clean with a cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The lower half of the shank is plain, so resizing is done in clean metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does the ring take to make\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach ring is made to order. Production usually takes ten to fourteen working days before dispatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond gives you a larger stone and a higher colour and clarity grade for the same budget, with a traceable origin and no mining. When accents are set apart rather than crowded together, each one is individually visible, so matching them properly to the centre stone actually matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur services\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIGI certificate for the center stone included at no extra cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order in any size in our range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree resizing within the first year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsured worldwide shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime cleaning and polishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom design service for changes to any element of this ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mapple Gems\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a jewellery workshop in Surat, India, the city where a large share of the world's diamonds are cut and polished.
