Emerald Cut Moissanite Celtic Knot And Pave Shoulder Engagement Ring

Emerald Cut Moissanite Celtic Knot And Pave Shoulder Engagement Ring

Each shoulder carries a Celtic trinity knot worked in openwork metal, with a single round accent claw set just outside it and a run of smaller bead set rounds continuing along the band beyond that.

The knot is pierced right through, so you can see daylight in the loops. The accent beside it is noticeably larger than the pave that follows, which gives each shoulder a clear focal point rather than an even line of stones.

About the trinity knot

The triquetra is drawn as one unbroken line looped into three points and appears in Irish manuscript work from the eighth century onward. Because the line has no beginning and no end, it has long been used on rings for the same reason a plain band is.

How it compares

Our Celtic trinity knot solitaire is the plain version: the same knot, no stones anywhere except the centre. This ring adds a claw set accent beside each knot and a run of pave down the band, so the Celtic detail sits inside a more decorated ring rather than being the only thing on it. Choose the plain one if you want the knot to speak alone, this one if you want the sparkle as well.

Why an emerald cut

A knot is geometry drawn in straight and curved lines, and step cut facets are the same. A round brilliant beside a triquetra tends to fight it; a rectangle sits with it.

Wearing and stacking

The knots stand slightly proud at the shoulders. A straight wedding band meets the shank at the back and leaves a small gap under the knot. A contoured band follows the shape more closely.

Made to order in Surat, India

Mapple Gems is a family run workshop in Surat. The knot is pierced and filed so the strands genuinely pass over and under one another, then the stones go in around it. A knot that is only carved on the surface looks wrong from the side, so we do not cast the pattern in. Every ring is made after you order, usually within 18 to 22 working days.

Care

Warm water, a drop of mild dish soap and a soft brush. Work the brush through the openings of the knot from both sides, then along the pave. Rinse and dry with a lint free cloth.

Questions buyers ask

How many accent stones are there
Two larger claw set rounds and around fourteen smaller bead set rounds.

Are the knots really interlaced
Yes. They are pierced through so each strand passes over one neighbour and under the other.

Can this ring be resized
Yes, by one size in either direction, at the plain section behind the finger.

Is moissanite hard enough for daily wear
Yes. Moissanite is 9.25 on the Mohs scale, second only to diamond among stones used in jewellery.

Which finger sizes are available
Sizes 3 to 13 including half sizes. Message us before ordering if you need something outside that range.
