There are no prongs and no accent stones. The bezel follows the octagonal outline of the emerald cut exactly, so the stone reads as a clean rectangle inset into solid gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy this ring works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bezel is the oldest setting there is and still the most secure. Nothing sticks up to catch, nothing can bend out of shape, and the girdle of the stone is completely protected. On an emerald cut it also does something a prong setting cannot: because the rim traces the eight straight edges of the stone, the outline stays perfectly geometric instead of being interrupted by four claws. Paired with a wide flat shank, the whole ring reads as a single machined object, which is why this style has become the default choice for people who want something modern and want to wear it every day without thinking about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCentre stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: Moissanite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Emerald cut, elongated rectangular step cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Colorless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: VVS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut and polish: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSymmetry: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRefractive index: 2.65, higher than diamond, which is why moissanite throws more coloured fire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardness: 9.25 on the Mohs scale, hard enough for daily wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2 carat, 3 carat, 4 carat and 5 carat centre stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSetting and band\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA full bezel of solid metal wraps the complete perimeter of the emerald cut, following all eight edges including the clipped corners, with a fine polished lip over the crown. The setting is open underneath so light still enters from below. The shank is a wide flat band with square edges, approximately three millimetres across, the same width the whole way around, joining the bezel with a clean angled shoulder. Metal is solid throughout with a polished interior.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMetal options\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose from recycled 925 sterling silver, or solid 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose and white. Yellow gold, as photographed, gives the strongest contrast between the warm rim and the colorless stone, which is the whole point of a bezel. Rose gold does the same more softly. White gold and sterling silver make the rim nearly disappear so the stone reads as floating in the band. White gold is rhodium finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRing sizing\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to order in your size. Sizes run from 3 to 13, including half sizes. A wide band sits tighter than a thin one at the same nominal size, so many people prefer to go up a quarter to a half size. Contact us before ordering and we will talk it through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bezel is the easiest setting to keep clean because there are no prong gaps. Wash with warm water, mild dish soap and a soft cloth, and run the brush around the join where the rim meets the stone. Rinse and dry with a lint free cloth. The wide polished face will pick up fine surface marks over years, and a jeweller can repolish it whenever you like.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions people ask\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a bezel more secure than prongs?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, meaningfully. There are no claws to bend, snag or wear thin, and the entire girdle is enclosed. It is the setting jewellers recommend for anyone working with their hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a bezel make the stone look smaller?\u003c\/strong\u003e The rim covers a fraction of a millimetre around the edge, so there is a very slight reduction in visible stone. In exchange the outline becomes crisper, and most people find the stone reads larger against the wide band, not smaller.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is this priced above the slim band versions?\u003c\/strong\u003e A three millimetre shank uses meaningfully more metal than a two millimetre one, and a full bezel takes longer at the bench than four prongs. Our pricing adds for the extra width rather than hiding it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich metal should I choose?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yellow or rose gold for a visible warm rim around the stone. White gold or sterling silver to make the rim recede. For daily wear over decades, 14K balances colour and durability best.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mapple Gems\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a made to order fine jewellery workshop.
