No halo, no hidden halo, no pave, no engraving. This is the strictest version of a solitaire we make and it is a harder ring to get right than a decorated one, because there is nothing to look at except the stone and the line of the metal. The claws are kept narrow and set at the corners so they cover as little of the diamond as possible. The basket is open underneath so light passes straight through the pavilion. The band is a thin polished round, chosen so that the eye reads the diamond as wide by comparison. If the centre stone is doing the work, this is the setting that lets it. Free IGI certificate for the centre stone. Made to order in Surat in ten metals and four carat weights.\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 radiant cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: E\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: VVS2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut and polish: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSymmetry: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Four claw in a plain open basket, no halo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertification: IGI certificate for the centre stone included at no extra cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA slim round band with a high polish, unbroken the whole way around, with no stones set anywhere on the ring except the centre. The gallery beneath the head is left completely open.

Yellow gold, as photographed, gives a warm contrast that makes a colourless diamond look brighter. White gold and sterling silver disappear against the stone so the diamond looks as though it is floating.

It has the clean outline of an emerald cut but returns light in bright small flashes like a round. Cutting it long rather than square flatters the finger and makes the stone look larger for its weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy choose a plain band over pave?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThree practical reasons. It costs less for the same centre stone, so more of your budget goes into carat weight. It resizes easily. And it sits flush against any wedding band without pave rubbing on pave.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a plain solitaire make the diamond look smaller?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe opposite. With nothing else on the ring competing for attention, and a deliberately narrow band for scale, the centre stone reads as large as it possibly can.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs there a hidden halo on this ring?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The basket is completely plain and open. If you want a hidden halo we can add one as a custom order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre four claws enough for a large stone?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes for a radiant. The corners of a radiant are cut off rather than pointed, so a claw at each corner grips a flat facet edge, which is a stronger hold than gripping a point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between a lab grown and a mined diamond?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOnly where it was made. A lab grown diamond is carbon in the same crystal structure with the same hardness, refractive index and grading scales. IGI grades both the same way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I get a certificate?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. A free IGI certificate for the centre stone comes with every order, listing colour, clarity, cut and carat weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is chemically and optically the same as a mined one, graded on the same scales by the same laboratories, at a fraction of the price. On a plain setting like this one, almost the whole price is the stone, which is why a VVS2 E colour elongated radiant at 4 or 5 carat is possible here at all. It is grown rather than excavated, so there is no mining involved and the origin is never in question.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur services\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree IGI certificate for the centre stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree tracked worldwide shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order in your exact ring size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime prong check plus cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThirty day return window\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure packaging in a presentation box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mapple Gems\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a made to order fine jewellery workshop in Surat, India, one of the world's main diamond cutting centres.
