{"product_id":"oval-cut-lab-grown-diamond-graduated-trio-accent-ring","title":"Oval Cut Lab Grown Diamond Ring with Graduated Accent Trios in Silver, 10K, 14K and 18K Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn oval cut laboratory grown diamond in six claws, with a graduated trio of round accents tucked against each shoulder and a plain band running back from there. The accents step down in size away from the centre stone, so the ring tapers rather than stopping abruptly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentre stone: Oval cut laboratory grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour and clarity: E colour, VVS2 clarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertificate: IGI, included free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Six claws with a trio of graduated round accents at each shoulder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent stones: Round laboratory grown diamonds, E colour, VVS2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetals: 925 silver, 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose and white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade: To order in Surat, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGraduated, not uniform\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree accents on each side, each smaller than the last. Uniform accents would read as a short run of pave; graduating them makes the group belong to the centre stone, drawing the eye inward. The last and smallest sits where the shoulder meets the plain band, so there is no visible step between decorated and undecorated metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy six claws on the oval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo at each end and one on each side spreads pressure evenly around a long curve, holds a large stone more securely than four, and keeps each claw fine enough not to cut into the outline. On ovals above two carats we recommend six as a matter of course.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOn the bow tie\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery oval has a faint dark band across its centre, caused by the way facets shadow themselves in an elongated brilliant. Well cut it is barely visible; badly cut it is a black stripe. We reject stones where it is pronounced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat laboratory grown means here\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA laboratory grown diamond is a diamond. It is crystallised carbon with the same cubic structure, the same 10 on the Mohs scale, the same refractive index of 2.42 and the same dispersion as a mined stone. Ours are grown by chemical vapour deposition and high pressure high temperature methods, then cut and polished by hand. This is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. A gemmologist testing it will read diamond, because it is diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMetals\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K or 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. This ring was photographed in yellow gold, but every metal is made to order and priced above. White gold is rhodium plated and will want replating every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEvery centre stone arrives IGI certified\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe centre diamond is graded by IGI, the International Gemological Institute, and the certificate comes with the ring at no extra charge. It states the carat weight, the E colour grade, the VVS2 clarity grade, the measurements and the girdle inscription, and confirms in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. Every accent is matched to the same E and VVS2 grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run workshop in Surat, India, where most of the world's diamonds are cut and polished. Each trio is laid out against the measured centre stone, since the graduation depends on the width of the oval, and the accents are set last so they sit tight to the claws without crowding them. Allow two to three weeks for making, plus shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the photographs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome photographs show this ring with stacking bands or worn alongside another ring. Those pieces are separate and are not included. The ring box shown is our standard packaging and comes with every order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLooking after it\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm water, mild washing up liquid and a soft toothbrush, working into each trio from underneath and behind the oval. Take it off for the gym, gardening and swimming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions we are asked\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colour and clarity are the diamonds?\u003c\/strong\u003e The centre oval and every accent are E colour and VVS2 clarity, on all metals and all carat weights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the carat weight include the accents?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat options refer to the centre oval. The shoulder trios are in addition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the certificate really free?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The IGI report for the centre stone is included in the price on every variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush?\u003c\/strong\u003e Close, and closer than with full pave, because the accents stop well before the back of the ring. A slightly shaped band tucks under the trios.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, at the back where the band is plain. One or two sizes either way is straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I add a hidden halo?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, either now or later. The six claw basket leaves good access underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
