The stretched proportion of the stone is what does the work here. A cushion cut at even proportions reads as a soft square. Pulled longer it becomes a rounded rectangle that covers more finger, flatters the hand and holds a deeper, more broken pattern of light inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pave is kept fine and low so the band stays narrow. Against a narrow shank an elongated stone looks longer still, which is the simplest and most reliable way to make a centre diamond read larger than its carat weight.\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 claw prongs on an open basket\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 lab grown diamonds pave set along the top of the shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePave carried up both shoulders to meet the claws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccents matched to the center stone for color and clarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach stone set in its own bead seat by hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank is a slim band carrying a single row of pave on its upper face and left plain and smooth underneath. The setting sits low so the ring passes easily under gloves and cuffs, and the plain underside keeps it comfortable and simple to resize.\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. Yellow gold warms the broken light inside the cushion and outlines each pave stone. Rose gold softens the whole ring. White gold and sterling silver make the pave and the centre stone merge into one bright line. Every metal is finished by hand in our workshop.\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.

It looks larger for its weight than a square cushion and it lengthens the finger.\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\u003eDoes a pave shank make the stone look bigger?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. A narrow pave band gives the eye a thin bright line to measure the centre stone against, which makes the diamond appear larger than it would on a wide plain band.\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\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The shank is straight and the basket sits above it, so a straight plain or pave band meets this ring without a gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich metal is best for daily wear?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e14K 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.\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.
