The band beneath carries pave down both shoulders.\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: Claw set with a marquise and round starburst halo, on a pave band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent stones: Marquise and round cut 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\u003eA halo with points\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstead of a continuous row of small rounds, this halo alternates marquises set pointing outward with rounds filling the spaces between them. The outline becomes a star rather than a ring, and because marquises are longer than they are wide, the border reaches further out than a conventional halo of the same weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDeliberately antique\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStarburst and cluster halos of this kind belong to the Georgian and early Victorian tradition, long before micro pave existed. The effect is ornate and hand made rather than sleek, and it is considerably less common than a plain halo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe centre stays an oval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe accents sit clear of the centre stone rather than crowding its girdle, so the oval is still clearly readable as an oval within the starburst. That is the difference between a halo ring and a cluster where the centre stone disappears.\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, which suits the antique character, 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. Every marquise in the halo is seated at its own angle around the measured centre stone, and the rounds are set last to close the gaps. It takes far longer than a conventional halo, and it is why the ring looks made rather than manufactured. Allow two to three weeks for making, plus shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLooking after it\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm water, mild washing up liquid and a soft toothbrush, working into the halo from underneath between the points. An ornate halo collects more than a plain one, so clean it weekly. 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 halo and pave?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat options refer to the centre oval. All accents are in addition, and on this design they add a considerable amount of diamond.\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\u003eDo the marquise points catch?\u003c\/strong\u003e They sit within the outline of the halo rather than standing proud of it, so no more than a conventional halo does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush?\u003c\/strong\u003e Not completely, since the halo is wider than the band. A shaped band follows the starburst, and we will make one to match.\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","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
