Elongated Radiant Cut Lab Grown Diamond Ring with Marquise Accents in the Gallery

Elongated Radiant Cut Lab Grown Diamond Ring with Marquise Accents in the Gallery

An elongated radiant cut lab grown diamond in four claws, on a fine plain band, with small marquise cut diamonds set into the gallery walls beneath the stone. From above the ring is a bare solitaire. From the side, two pointed diamonds sit in the openings of the setting where most rings show nothing at all.

The gallery is the pierced side wall of the head, the part that carries the claws and holds the stone above the finger, and on almost every ring it is treated as a place to remove metal for weight rather than as a place to put anything. Setting stones there is a specific choice, and using marquises rather than rounds is another one, because a marquise is pointed at both ends and fits the pointed openings a gallery is usually cut into. A round stone in the same space would need a circular hole cut for it and would leave metal in the corners.

• Visible in profile, invisible from directly above
• Matched to the center stone in color and clarity

Band details

The shank is fine, plain and rounded with a mirror polish, carrying no stones. All the decoration in the ring sits in the gallery, so the band is left as a quiet support and can be resized without limit.

Metal options

Choose from 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. Yellow gold is shown here and warm metal around each marquise makes the gallery stones read as separate bright shapes. Rose gold does the same more softly. White gold and sterling silver merge the accents into the setting so the gallery reads as pierced light rather than as individual diamonds.

Frequently asked questions

What is the gallery on a ring?
The pierced side wall of the head, between the claws and the shank, which holds the stone above the finger. It is usually left as plain openwork. Here it carries small marquise diamonds.

Why marquise accents rather than round?
Because the openings cut into a gallery are naturally pointed, and a marquise fits that shape. A round stone would need a circular seat cut for it and would leave metal in the corners.

Are the gallery stones visible when worn?
From the side and at an angle, yes. From directly above the ring reads as a plain solitaire, which is the intention.

What makes a radiant cut different from an emerald cut?
Both are rectangular with cropped corners, but a radiant is brilliant faceted underneath so it sparkles like a round, while an emerald cut is a step cut with a clear open table.

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.

How do I clean gallery stones?
Warm soapy water and a soft brush worked in from underneath. A pierced gallery is open on both sides, so it rinses more easily than a solid basket.

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.
