Emerald Cut Lab Grown Diamond Four Claw Ring with Hidden Halo on a Plain Band, E Color VVS2

Emerald Cut Lab Grown Diamond Four Claw Ring with Hidden Halo on a Plain Band

An emerald cut lab grown diamond set north south along the finger, held at its corners by four slim claws, with a hidden halo of pave set diamonds around the collar underneath. An emerald cut is a step cut, which means long straight facets and a large open table rather than the scattered sparkle of a brilliant. It shows flashes of light across broad planes instead, and it is the cut that most rewards a high clarity stone because there is nowhere for an inclusion to hide. That is why this one is VVS2. The band is plain with a gently rounded outer face and no stones at all, so the rectangular outline of the diamond stays the only strong shape on the finger. The hidden halo appears in profile. E colour, VVS2 clarity, free IGI certificate. Made to order in Surat in ten metals and four carat weights.

Yellow and rose gold warm the open table of a step cut and give the long facets something to reflect. White gold and sterling silver keep the stone icy and emphasise the clean geometry of the corners.

Frequently asked questions

What is a step cut?
A cut with long parallel facets arranged in steps down from the table, rather than the many small triangular facets of a brilliant. Emerald and asscher are the common step cuts. They give broad flashes and a hall of mirrors effect instead of fine sparkle.

Why does clarity matter more on an emerald cut?
The large open table acts like a window into the stone. A brilliant cut breaks light up and disguises small inclusions, but a step cut does not, so a high clarity grade such as VVS2 makes a visible difference on this shape.

What is a hidden halo?
A ring of small pave set diamonds around the collar under the centre stone, facing outward. It is invisible from the front and shows only in profile or as the hand moves.

Do emerald cuts look bigger than round diamonds?
Generally yes. An emerald cut carries less of its weight in depth, so more of the carat weight sits on the surface. A 2 carat emerald typically covers more finger than a 2 carat round.

Is a lab grown diamond a real diamond?
Yes. Same carbon structure, hardness and brilliance as a mined diamond. Only the origin differs.

Do I get a certificate?
Yes. A free IGI certificate for the centre stone comes with every order, listing colour, clarity, cut grade and carat weight.

Why buy a lab grown diamond

A lab grown diamond gives the same hardness, brilliance and fire as a mined stone at a fraction of the price, which is what makes a certified 4 or 5 carat emerald cut at VVS2 clarity achievable. It is created without mining, so there is no excavation and no doubt about origin.
