Two of those claws are V shaped tips at the points of the stone and the other four sit along its curved sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe extra four are not there for security in the way most people assume. Two V tips already hold a marquise firmly against being pulled out. What they cannot prevent is rotation, because a long stone gripped only at its two ends can pivot fractionally in its seat over years of knocks, and once a marquise sits even slightly off axis on the finger the eye notices immediately. Adding claws along the sides removes that freedom entirely. It is the same reason a picture frame gets a fixing at the middle of each long edge and not only at the corners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCenter stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Marquise cut, elongated with a point at each end\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: Six claws, two V shaped tips at the points and four along the sides, 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\u003eRound brilliant cut lab grown diamonds pave set along the shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBead set flush into the top surface so the band stays smooth to the touch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKept small so they support the centre stone rather than compete with it\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 fine and rounded, pave set along its upper length with the base left plain for resizing. Because a marquise already spans a lot of finger, keeping the band narrow stops the ring from looking heavy.\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 makes all six claws disappear against the diamond, so the outline of the marquise is uninterrupted. Yellow and rose gold make the claws visible as small warm marks along the edge of the stone, which some people prefer because it shows how the ring is built.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is available in a full range of US sizes.

A long stone held only at its ends can pivot very slightly, and a marquise sitting off axis is immediately noticeable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo the V tips protect the points?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, that is their purpose. The point of a marquise is the thinnest part of the stone and the tip covers it completely so any knock lands on metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a marquise look larger than other cuts?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Weight for weight it presents one of the largest visible surfaces of any shape, and its long outline makes the finger look slimmer and longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is the pave kept small?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo the band supports the centre stone instead of drawing attention away from it. Larger accents would shorten the apparent length of the marquise.\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 base of the shank is left free of stones specifically so a jeweler can cut and adjust it.\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.
