The engagement ring is deliberately plain so the band has something to say.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis is a bridal set: engagement ring and matching diamond wedding band, both included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentre stone: Emerald cut laboratory grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour and clarity: E colour, VVS2 clarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertificate: IGI, included free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Four claw emerald cut with a hidden halo, on a plain band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent stones: Round laboratory grown diamonds in the hidden halo and the wedding band, E colour, VVS2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetals: 925 silver, 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose and white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade: To order in Surat, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow the two rings divide the work\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe engagement ring carries the weight: a large step cut stone on a shank with no ornament at all. The wedding band carries the detail: small round diamonds spaced along it with polished metal between. Worn together you get both without either one shouting. Worn apart, the solitaire is as plain as a solitaire gets and the band passes as an everyday ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe hidden halo\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRound diamonds circle the outside of the basket, below the girdle and facing outward. Nothing shows from directly above, so the long rectangle of the emerald cut stays uninterrupted, and from the side the stone appears lifted on a line of light rather than sitting on solid metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy clarity matters on an emerald cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn emerald cut is a step cut. Its facets are long, flat and parallel, arranged in rows down towards a large open table, and they behave like a series of mirrors rather than scattering light into flashes. That is the appeal, and it is also the problem: there is nowhere for an inclusion to hide. Our centre stones are VVS2, clean under ten times magnification, which is why we do not offer lower clarity grades on this cut.\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. Both rings are made in the same metal. Yellow gold is photographed here, and a warm plain shank against a long colourless step cut is one of the oldest and best combinations in jewellery. 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 set 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. Every accent on both rings is matched to the same E and VVS2 grade.\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 hidden halo is built to the exact footprint of your centre stone so it stays out of sight from above, and the wedding band is sized to sit flush against the finished engagement ring. 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 upward into the basket to keep the hidden halo bright. A step cut shows any film on its table immediately, so clean the top face of the stone more often than you would a brilliant cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions we are asked\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the price include both rings?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. Every price on this page is for the engagement ring and the diamond wedding band together.\u003c\/p\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. All accents are matched to the same grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the carat weight include the accents?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat options refer to the centre emerald cut. The hidden halo and the band diamonds are in addition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the certificate really free?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The IGI report for the centre stone is included in the price on every variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes an emerald cut sparkle less?\u003c\/strong\u003e It sparkles differently. A brilliant cut gives fast small flashes, a step cut gives long broad returns of light and dark. Neither is brighter, they are two different effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e The engagement ring resizes easily, since the shank is plain. The band has stones part way round, so it will take about one size either way.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
