This one does the opposite. The halo diamonds are large enough to be seen individually, and each pair shares a single prong between them, which is what lets them sit shoulder to shoulder with almost no metal in between. The result is a wide bright frame that follows the octagonal outline of the emerald cut and makes the head look considerably bigger than the center stone alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShared prong setting is also why the band matches. The same technique runs along the shoulders, so the diamonds continue in an unbroken line from the halo into the shank without a change of rhythm. There is no pave here in the usual sense, no field of tiny beads, just substantial stones set with as little metal showing as the setter can manage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst all of that brilliance the emerald cut stays calm. Step cut facets give slow wide flashes rather than fast fire, so even inside a bold halo the center stone reads as the still point of the ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCenter stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: lab grown diamond, chemically and optically identical to a mined diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: emerald cut, step cut faceting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2 carat, 3 carat, 4 carat and 5 carat\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\u003eSetting: four claws with the corners protected, inside a surrounding halo frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertification: IGI certificate for the center stone, included at no extra cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound brilliant lab grown diamonds forming a full halo around the center stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatching round brilliants continuing along both shoulders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccents graded F to G color, VS clarity or better\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShared prong setting throughout, so neighbouring stones sit almost edge to edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent weight varies with ring size and center carat, and is significantly higher than on our pave designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shank carries diamonds along the upper half and returns to plain polished metal underneath.

Every metal is fully hallmarked. White gold is finished with rhodium for a bright cool white. Yellow gold gives this design its warm vintage weight, while white gold makes the halo and center stone merge into one large bright shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in your size.

A lab grown diamond is real diamond. It has the same carbon crystal structure, the same hardness of 10 on the Mohs scale and the same optical behaviour as a mined diamond. The only difference is where it was grown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. An IGI certificate for the center stone is included at no extra charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much larger does the halo make the ring look\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause these halo stones are large rather than micro sized, a 2 carat emerald cut in this setting presents roughly like a 3 carat stone from a normal viewing distance. Larger center stones gain proportionally less because the halo is scaled to the center.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a shared prong setting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach prong holds two neighbouring stones at once instead of one. It removes the metal that would otherwise sit between them, so the diamonds look continuous and more light reaches each stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized later\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithin a size or two. The diamonds stop before the palm side, which gives a jeweller plain metal to work with, but tell us your size as accurately as you can. First resizing is free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is this different from your other halo rings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur bezel halo ring frames a bezel with fine pave. Our floral petal halo sets each accent in its own milgrain petal. This design uses the largest halo stones of the three, set in shared prongs, and carries the same stones down the band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a wedding band sit flush against it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe halo extends past the shank, so a straight band meets the ring at the outer edge. Most customers choose a contoured band with this design, and we can make one to match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it heavy to wear\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is a substantial ring, but the gallery is open and the shank returns to a normal width underneath, so it balances well on the finger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich metal should I choose\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhite gold or sterling silver for maximum apparent size. Yellow or rose gold if you want the halo outlined and the ring to read warmer and more vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond gives you the same material as a mined stone with a documented origin. This design carries a lot of accent weight on top of the center stone, and lab grown is what keeps a ring of this scale within reach at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOur services\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIGI certificate for the center stone included at no extra cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order in your chosen metal, carat and size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree first resizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsured worldwide shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime cleaning and inspection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom design service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mapple Gems\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a jewellery workshop in Surat, India, the city where a large share of the world's diamonds are cut and polished.
