Each accent sits in its own small setting with clear polished metal on either side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSetting accents as separate stations rather than as pave changes what the ring does at a distance. A pave shank returns a single continuous glitter, which is bright but undifferentiated, and from more than an arm away it reads as a shiny band. Stations return distinct points of light that appear and disappear separately as the hand moves, so the eye registers movement rather than brightness. It is the difference between a strip light and a row of candles, and on a step cut centre stone, which itself gives broad slow flashes rather than fast sparkle, the slower rhythm of stations is the better match.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCenter stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Emerald cut, rectangular step cut with cropped corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: Lab grown diamond, IGI certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat weight: 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat, selected at checkout\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 make, excellent luster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Four claws on a raised basket, set north to south\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertification: IGI certificate of the center stone is included at no extra charge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHidden halo of round brilliant lab grown diamonds pave set around the basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividual round brilliant diamonds station set at intervals along both shoulders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach station held in its own claw setting with polished metal between\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatched to the center stone in color and clarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank is slim and evenly rounded, with the station settings sitting low into its upper surface so the profile stays smooth. Between the stations the metal is left plain and polished, which is what makes each stone read as a separate point of light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMetal options\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose from 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. White gold is shown here and it makes the stations read purely as light with no metal colour marking the gaps. Yellow and rose gold do the opposite, drawing a warm line between each accent so the spacing itself becomes part of the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is available in a full range of US sizes.

The stones read as individual points of light instead of a single glitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy choose stations over pave?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStations give a quieter, more deliberate look, they suit a step cut centre stone whose own flashes are broad and slow, and there is less fine setting to keep clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a hidden halo?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA ring of small diamonds set around the basket beneath the centre stone. Invisible from above, so the ring keeps a clean outline, and visible as a line of light from the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does an emerald cut look so clear?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is a step cut with long parallel facets arranged like stairs, so instead of fine sparkle you get broad flashes and an open view straight into the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond has the same carbon crystal structure, hardness, refractive index and fire as a mined diamond. The only difference is that it was grown in a controlled environment rather than pulled from the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill I receive a certificate?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. An IGI certificate for the center stone is included with every order at no additional cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The stations stop before the base of the shank, leaving a plain section for a jeweler to cut and adjust.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond gives you the same optical and physical properties as a mined stone at a far better price for the size and quality. Because the growth conditions are controlled, high color and high clarity stones like the E VVS2 used here are available in large carat weights that would be rare and costly in mined goods. It is also a traceable choice, with a known origin and no mining footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur services\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIGI certificate of the center stone included free with every ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order in the metal, carat weight and size you choose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull range of US ring sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom design and matching wedding bands on request\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand finishing and quality inspection before dispatch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure insured worldwide shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mapple Gems\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a fine jewelry maker based in Surat, India, a city that has cut and polished diamonds for generations.
