One strand stays smooth and polished, the other carries a fine row of pave diamonds, and the two cross under the stone. A step cut is the calmest diamond there is, so putting it on a moving band is a deliberate contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\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 on a twisted band, one polished strand and one pave strand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent stones: Round laboratory grown diamonds, 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\u003eWhy clarity matters most on an emerald cut\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn emerald cut is a step cut. Its facets are long, parallel and wide open, which is what gives it those slow flashes of light like a hall of mirrors. It also means the stone hides almost nothing. Any inclusion or cloud sits there in plain view. This is exactly why every centre stone here is VVS2, a grade at which nothing is visible even under ten times magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe twisted band\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank divides at the shoulders. One half is left plain and highly polished so it reads as a clean line of metal, the other carries round diamonds in a shared claw pave. Because the strands wrap over each other beneath the emerald cut, the ring sits slightly raised and the long straight stone appears to float above the movement.\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. White gold and silver, as photographed, keep a colourless emerald cut reading as icy as possible. Yellow and rose gold warm it and show the twist more clearly. 10K is the hardest alloy, 14K is the everyday balance, and 18K is the richest colour but the softest metal. 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 ring 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.\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 twist is formed first, then each pave seat is drilled and beaded along a curve that is never straight. 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. Follow the groove where the two strands cross, because that is where soap and lotion collect. An emerald cut also shows smears more than a brilliant, so wipe the table clean. Take it off for the gym, gardening and swimming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions we are asked\u003c\/h2\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. The pave accents are matched to the same grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes an emerald cut sparkle less than a brilliant?\u003c\/strong\u003e Differently rather than less. It gives long broad flashes instead of small rapid ones. If you want maximum fire, a round or radiant is brighter. If you want elegance and a large flat table, this is the cut.\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\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush against it?\u003c\/strong\u003e A straight band meets the twist at its high points and leaves small gaps. Most customers pair this one with a matching twisted or curved band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e Within a size or two. The pave runs a long way round, so tell us your size as accurately as you can.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
