There are no accent stones anywhere on the ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA cigar band is a broad, flat, straight sided shank of even width all the way round, and it changes what a solitaire looks like completely. Instead of a stone raised above a thin wire, the diamond sits into a broad plane of metal, framed on both sides by polished gold. It reads as one solid object rather than as a setting plus a band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe width also does the work a halo usually does. A large flat surface around the stone reflects it and makes the whole top of the ring feel substantial, which is why this style suits people who want presence without added diamonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the band is wide, the finish matters more than usual. The outer face is polished flat and true, the edges are lightly softened so nothing digs in, and the interior is domed for comfort against the finger.\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 slim claws set low into the face of the band\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\u003eBand and finish details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide flat cigar band of even width around the full circumference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight sides with lightly softened edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMirror polished outer face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo accent diamonds and no engraving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComfort domed interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe band keeps its full width all the way around rather than tapering underneath, which is what gives a cigar band its balance on the hand. The stone sits low into the top face so nothing stands proud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMetal options\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K or 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. Every metal is fully hallmarked. White gold is finished with rhodium for a bright cool white. Yellow gold, shown here, is the classic choice for a cigar band because the broad polished surface shows the colour of the metal at its best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in your size. Select your size at checkout. A wide band fits more snugly than a narrow one, so if you are between sizes we usually recommend the larger.

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\u003eIs clothing or anything else in the photographs included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The lifestyle photographs show the ring worn on the hand for scale. You receive the ring only, in the metal, carat and size you select.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShould I size up for a wide band\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsually yes, by about a quarter to a half size. A wide band sits against more of your finger and feels tighter than a narrow one at the same measurement. Tell us and we will advise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized later\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, though a wide band takes more work to size than a slim one. Your first resizing with us is free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is this different from your other wide band rings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur wide polished band solitaire tapers slightly toward the base. Our bezel wide flat band ring encloses the stone in metal. This design keeps full cigar band width all the way round with the stone claw set into the face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a wedding band sit flush against it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, the sides are straight and flat, so a plain band sits perfectly against it. Many people wear this ring on its own because the band is already substantial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the wide polished surface scratch\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt will pick up fine marks like any polished metal, and a broad flat face shows them a little more. A professional polish restores it and that is included in our lifetime cleaning service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich metal should I choose\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYellow gold for the boldest look, rose gold for warmth, white gold or sterling silver if you want the band to recede and the diamond to lead.\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. On a design with no accent stones, all of the budget goes into the center diamond, and a wide band needs a large stone to stay in proportion.\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.
