The extra length gives the pavilion facets a longer run, which produces broader and slower flashes than a square cushion of the same weight, and it makes the stone sit along the finger rather than across it, which is why elongated shapes flatter the hand. Setting it in white claws on a gold band is a colour decision rather than a stylistic one. Warm metal touching a colourless diamond reflects a faint yellow cast into it through the girdle and the claw tips, and on a stone this large that cast is visible. White metal at the four contact points removes it, so the diamond keeps its E colour appearance while the band remains gold against the skin. The band itself is left completely plain, because a stone of this spread needs nothing beside it.\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 with rounded corners\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 in white metal on an open basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eNone.
