Elongated Cushion Lab Grown Diamond Ring with Marquise and Round Accent Shoulders

Elongated Cushion Lab Grown Diamond Ring with Marquise and Round Accent Shoulders

An elongated cushion cut lab grown diamond above shoulders that alternate marquise and round accents. The marquise stones lie lengthwise along the band and small rounds sit between them, with clear metal visible at every join, so the shoulders read as a repeating figure rather than a continuous row.

Alternating two shapes creates a rhythm the eye follows, and on a soft rectangular centre stone that rhythm does something useful. A cushion has no hard corners to anchor the outline, so a uniform pave line tends to blur into it. Pointed marquise accents give the shoulders a defined direction and stop the whole head from reading as one soft mass.

Center stone details

• Shape: Elongated cushion cut, soft rectangle with rounded corners
• Stone type: Lab grown diamond, IGI certified
• Carat weight: 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat, selected at checkout
• Color grade: E
• Clarity grade: VVS2
• Cut and polish: Excellent make, excellent luster
• Setting: Four claw prongs on an open basket
• Certification: IGI certificate of the center stone is included at no extra charge

Accent stone details

• Marquise cut lab grown diamonds set lengthwise along both shoulders
• Round brilliant lab grown diamonds set between each marquise
• Polished metal left visible between the accents so the pattern reads clearly
• All accents matched to the center stone for color and clarity

Band details

The shank is a fine band whose upper face carries the alternating pattern and whose underside stays plain. Each accent is individually seated with space either side, so light reaches the band from below as well as above and the shoulders stay open rather than crowded.

Metal options

Choose from 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. Rose gold warms the whole ring and reads soft against the cushion. Yellow gold outlines each accent so the alternating pattern is unmistakable. White gold and sterling silver blur the pattern into a single continuous line of light. Every metal is finished by hand in our workshop.

Custom orders

We make every ring to order, which means the design can be adjusted. Ask us about an oval or radiant centre on the same band, the pattern carried all the way round as an eternity band, a hidden halo, a different carat weight, an engraving inside the shank or a matching wedding band.

Frequently asked questions

Why alternate marquise and round accents?
Mixing two shapes gives the band a rhythm a uniform pave row cannot. The pointed marquise stones lead the eye along the finger while the rounds break the line, so the shank looks designed rather than simply decorated.

What is an elongated cushion?
It is a cushion cut with a stretched length to width ratio, so the outline is a soft rectangle rather than a near square. It covers more finger for the weight and flatters the hand by drawing the eye lengthwise.

How does a cushion cut sparkle?
Its 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.

Is a lab grown diamond a real diamond?
Yes. 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.

Will I receive a certificate?
Yes. An IGI certificate for the center stone is included with every order at no additional cost.

Will a wedding band sit flush?
The accents sit slightly proud of the shank so a straight band may leave a small gap. We can shape a contoured band that follows the pattern if you would prefer them to sit tight together.

Which metal is best for daily wear?
14K and 18K gold are the most durable choices for a ring worn every day. 10K is harder still. Sterling silver is softer and suits gentler wear or a first ring.

Why buy a lab grown diamond

A 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.
