Each round diamond is held between rounded bead prongs with an open space beneath it, so light passes right through the row. That is why the halo reads as a ring of separate bright stones circling the centre instead of a solid band of white metal, and it is also why the emerald cut in the middle keeps its own identity. A step cut is calm and mirror like, and setting it inside a row of brilliant cuts creates a deliberate contrast between the two kinds of light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shoulders repeat the halo in miniature. Round diamonds are shared prong set along the top of the band, largest at the setting and gradually smaller toward the back, with small gold beads sitting between them. Because the stones are shared prong rather than channel set, almost no metal shows from above and the band looks like a continuous line of diamonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnderneath, the shank stays plain and rounded so the ring is comfortable to wear all day, and the whole setting is kept slim so the centre stone remains the tallest point on the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCenter stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\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 with an open rectangular table\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat weight: choose 2 carat, 3 carat, 4 carat or 5 carat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour grade: E, in the colourless range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity grade: VVS2, eye clean under normal viewing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut and polish: excellent make, excellent lustre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: four corner claws inside an open floating halo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertificate: an IGI certificate for the centre stone is included at no extra cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stones and band\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalo: full sized round brilliant lab grown diamonds set in bead prongs with open space below each stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShoulders: graduated round brilliant diamonds, shared prong set with gold beads between them\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent quality: F to G colour, VS clarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoverage: diamonds run roughly halfway down each side of the band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBand: slim rounded shank, plain and polished underneath\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: high polish throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMetal options\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade to order in 925 sterling silver, 10K yellow gold, 10K rose gold, 10K white gold, 14K yellow gold, 14K rose gold, 14K white gold, 18K yellow gold, 18K rose gold or 18K white gold. White gold and 925 sterling silver make the halo disappear into the diamonds for a very bright effect. Yellow and rose gold outline every stone instead, which gives the halo a clearly visible pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRing size is fully customisable.

A lab grown diamond is the same carbon crystal as a mined diamond, with the same hardness of 10 on the Mohs scale and the same brilliance. Only its origin differs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a certificate included?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. An IGI certificate for the centre stone is included at no extra cost and lists carat weight, colour, clarity, measurements and laboratory grown origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is this different from your other halo emerald cut rings?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMost halos use very small pave diamonds packed tightly around the stone. This halo uses full sized round brilliants held in bead prongs with open space underneath, so the halo is larger, brighter and clearly made of individual stones. The shoulders match it with graduated shared prong diamonds rather than pave.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a halo make the centre stone look bigger?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Because these halo stones are larger than usual, the overall outline of the ring is noticeably wider than the centre stone alone, so a 2 carat emerald cut wears like a considerably larger ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush against it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe halo sits low, so a straight band will meet it closely at the sides. A gently contoured band gives the closest fit, and we can make one to match.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs an emerald cut suitable for everyday wear?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Its corners are cut at an angle rather than left as points, the four claws sit over those corners, and the halo gives the girdle of the stone an extra layer of protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich carat weight works best here?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll four are made for this setting. At 2 carat the halo stones are close in scale to the centre and the ring reads as a cluster. At 4 or 5 carat the centre clearly dominates and the halo becomes a bright outline around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWarm water, a drop of mild dish soap and a soft brush. Because the halo is open beneath the stones, brushing from the back is easy and keeps the diamonds bright.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does it take to make?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach ring is made to order, so please allow our standard making time from the day your metal and size are confirmed. We will confirm the schedule with you when you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond gives the same material, hardness and brilliance as a mined stone at a fraction of the price, which is what makes a large emerald cut surrounded by full sized round diamonds affordable. Every centre stone we set is grown in a controlled laboratory and graded by IGI before it reaches our bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur services\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order in all ten metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIGI certificate for the centre stone included at no extra cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom ring sizing and sizing guidance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign changes on request\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure insured worldwide shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect contact with the workshop making your ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mapple Gems\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a jewellery workshop in Surat, India. A shared prong halo like this one has to be set stone by stone so that every diamond sits at the same height and the spacing stays even all the way around a rectangular outline, which is bench work rather than machine work. Ordering from us means dealing directly with the people making your ring, so changes in carat weight, metal, stone colour or diamond coverage are straightforward for us.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
