Oval Cut Lab Grown Diamond Engagement Ring with Hidden Halo, Claw Prongs and Eternity Band, E Color VVS2

Oval Cut Lab Grown Diamond Engagement Ring with Hidden Halo, Claw Prongs and Eternity Band, E Color VVS2

An oval cut lab grown diamond raised over a hidden halo and held in claw prongs, on a band set with diamonds the whole way around. Claw prongs are longer and more tapered than standard round prongs, and they curl over the stone rather than sitting flat against it, which gives the setting a slightly organic, hand made character. Beneath the oval the concealed halo adds light from the side, and the eternity band means the ring reads as continuous diamond from every angle, with no plain metal breaking the line. Every diamond is a laboratory grown diamond, identical in carbon structure, hardness and brilliance to a mined diamond, graded E colour and VVS2 clarity. Each ring is made to order in our own Surat workshop and ships with a free IGI certificate for the centre stone.

Metal options

This ring is made to order in ten metal choices, so you can match it to jewellery you already wear.

• 925 Sterling Silver
• 10K Yellow Gold, 10K Rose Gold, 10K White Gold
• 14K Yellow Gold, 14K Rose Gold, 14K White Gold
• 18K Yellow Gold, 18K Rose Gold, 18K White Gold

All gold options are solid gold, never plated or filled. White gold is finished with rhodium for a bright white surface and makes the eternity band read as one unbroken circle of light. Yellow and rose gold show the metal between the accents, which gives the band more definition and suits the tapered claw prongs.

Ring size

Choose your ring size at checkout. We make every size from US 3 to US 13, including half sizes, at no additional cost. Because this is a full eternity band, size accuracy matters more than usual, so if you are unsure, order anyway and contact us after checkout and we will help you confirm it before production begins.

Custom orders

Want a half eternity band that resizes more easily, standard prongs instead of claws, the hidden halo removed, a plain band, a different centre shape, engraving inside the shank, or a matching wedding band, we can make it. For any other customization request please contact us at https://mapplegems.com/pages/contact and we will quote it for you.

Frequently asked questions

What are claw prongs

Claw prongs are longer and more tapered than the standard rounded prong, and they curve over the edge of the stone to a fine point rather than sitting as a small bead of metal. They cover slightly more of the diamond, hold an elongated shape like an oval very securely along its length, and give the setting a softer, more sculptural look than a plain four prong head.

What is a hidden halo

A hidden halo is a ring of small diamonds set horizontally around the basket underneath the centre stone, facing outward rather than upward. From directly above you do not see it, so the ring still reads as a clean oval. From the side and from the wearer's own eye level it catches light and makes the centre stone appear to float above the finger.

Is a lab grown diamond a real diamond

Yes. A lab grown diamond is real diamond. It has the same carbon crystal structure, the same hardness of 10 on the Mohs scale, the same refractive index and the same fire and brilliance as a mined diamond. The only difference is that it was grown in a controlled laboratory over a few weeks instead of underground over billions of years. No jeweller can tell the difference by eye, only specialist equipment reading growth patterns can separate the two.

Can an eternity band be resized

Only within a very narrow range, because stones run the full circumference and there is no plain metal to cut and rejoin. That is the trade off for diamonds all the way around. We would rather make the ring in the correct size from the start, so if you are uncertain, contact us before ordering and we will help you measure. If you expect your size to change, ask us about a half eternity version instead, which resizes easily.

Does this ring come with a certificate

Yes. Every ring ships with a free IGI certificate for the centre stone. IGI is the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world. The certificate confirms the carat weight, the E colour grade, the VVS2 clarity grade and the laboratory grown origin. There is no extra charge for the certificate.

Why do oval diamonds look bigger than round diamonds of the same weight

An oval spreads its weight across a longer surface, so for the same carat weight it presents a larger face up area than a round brilliant, typically around ten percent more. It also elongates the finger visually. That is why oval is the most requested elongated shape for engagement rings.

What does E colour VVS2 actually mean

E colour is the second highest grade on the diamond colour scale and sits inside the colourless range, so the diamond looks bright white with no warm or yellow tint. VVS2 means very very slightly included, the second highest clarity tier. Any inclusions are so small that a trained grader needs 10x magnification to find them and they are completely invisible to the naked eye.

Why buy a lab grown diamond

A lab grown diamond gives you a materially identical stone for a fraction of the price of a mined equivalent, and on a design like this the saving applies across the centre stone, the hidden halo and every diamond in the eternity band. Because the origin of every stone is documented from the moment it is grown, a lab grown diamond is conflict free by definition. Growing a diamond also avoids the open pit excavation, land disruption and water use that mining a comparable stone requires, so the environmental cost is considerably lower.
