It keeps the broad, chunky flashes of fire that cushions are loved for, but looks larger face up than a square cushion of the same weight, and it lengthens the finger much like an oval. It is one of the fastest growing engagement shapes, bridging vintage romance and modern elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSet lengthwise on a fine band\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet north south, the stone runs along the finger for the most elongating effect. The fine band keeps the proportions delicate, so even a 2 carat stone looks generous, and four claws on the corners leave the long sides open to light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow it differs from our other elongated cushion ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur east west elongated cushion ring turns the stone sideways in a bezel. This one keeps it lengthwise in claws for a classic, brighter look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat laboratory grown means here\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA laboratory grown diamond is a diamond. It is crystallised carbon with the same cubic structure, the same 10 on the Mohs scale, the same refractive index of 2.42 and the same dispersion as a mined stone. Ours are grown by chemical vapour deposition and high pressure high temperature methods, then cut and polished by hand. This is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. A gemmologist testing it will read diamond, because it is diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMetals\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K or 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. On a fine band, 10K and 14K gold offer the best durability. 18K is the richest colour but the softest metal. White gold is rhodium plated and will want replating every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEvery centre stone arrives IGI certified\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe centre diamond is graded by IGI, the International Gemological Institute, and the certificate comes with the ring at no extra charge. It states the carat weight, the E colour grade, the VVS2 clarity grade, the measurements and the girdle inscription, and confirms in writing that the stone is laboratory grown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run workshop in Surat, India, where most of the world's diamonds are cut and polished. The claws are shaped to the corners of your stone and the ring is finished for your carat weight and finger size. Allow two to three weeks for making, plus shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLooking after it\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm water, mild washing up liquid and a soft toothbrush. Brush under the head where lotion collects. Take it off for the gym, gardening and swimming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions we are asked\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colour and clarity is the diamond?\u003c\/strong\u003e Every centre stone is E colour and VVS2 clarity, on every metal and every carat weight. The IGI report in the box states both grades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElongated cushion or oval?\u003c\/strong\u003e Both lengthen the finger. The elongated cushion has softly squared corners and bolder flashes; the oval is fully curved with finer sparkle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The band is plain and the head sits above it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a fine band strong enough?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. It is thickened under the head, and we recommend 10K or 14K for larger stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes,
