{"product_id":"emerald-cut-moissanite-sculpted-leaf-vine-milgrain-ring","title":"Emerald Cut Moissanite Sculpted Leaf Vine Milgrain Engagement Ring","description":"\u003ch2\u003eEmerald Cut Moissanite Sculpted Leaf Vine Milgrain Engagement Ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn emerald cut moissanite raised on a band modelled as a living branch. Two sculpted vines cross and separate around the finger, carrying marquise cut moissanite set as leaves and round brilliants set as buds, with curled tendrils worked into the metal between them and milgrain beading running along the length of each stem. The stones follow the vine rather than sitting in a straight row, so no two views of the ring look quite the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy this ring works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost nature inspired rings settle for a twisted band and call it a vine. This one is actually modelled: the branches taper, they cross at different heights on each shoulder, the tendrils curl in three dimensions, and the accent stones are placed where leaves would grow rather than at even intervals. Using marquise cuts for the leaves is the detail that makes it read correctly, because a marquise is already a pointed oval, which is the shape of a leaf. The emerald cut sitting above all of it supplies the one piece of hard geometry the design needs to stay elegant rather than merely decorative.\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\u003eFour claw prongs hold the corners of the emerald cut above an open gallery. The shank is sculpted as two entwined vines that cross on the shoulders and rejoin behind the head. Marquise cut moissanite accents are claw set as leaves along the vines, with round brilliant accents set as buds between them and curled tendrils modelled into the metal. Milgrain beading runs the length of each stem. Band width at the crossover is approximately two millimetres. 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, is the natural choice here because warm metal reads as branch and stem, and the colorless accents read as leaves against it. Rose gold pushes the design further toward romance. White gold and sterling silver make it cooler and more sculptural. 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. Because the vine pattern runs the full circumference, order the correct size rather than planning to resize. Contact us if you are unsure and we will help before production starts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSculpted vines, curled tendrils and milgrain all trap soap film, and the crossing points hold the most. Clean every few weeks with warm water, mild dish soap and a soft toothbrush, working into the gaps between the branches from both sides and up through the gallery. Rinse and dry with a lint free cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions people ask\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy marquise stones for the leaves?\u003c\/strong\u003e A marquise is a pointed oval, which is already leaf shaped. Setting it lengthwise along a vine gives a leaf outline without any extra metalwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the vine pattern the same on both sides?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, and deliberately so. The two branches cross at different points, which is what stops it looking mechanically repeated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many accent stones are there?\u003c\/strong\u003e Marquise leaves and round buds are placed along the vine, and the count is proportioned to your finger size and centre stone weight so the design stays balanced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich metal should I choose?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yellow or rose gold for a true botanical look. White gold or sterling silver for a cooler sculptural version. 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.
