{"product_id":"oval-cut-lab-grown-diamond-three-stone-oval-side-stone-ring","title":"Oval Cut Lab Grown Diamond Three Stone Engagement Ring with Oval Side Stones in Silver, 10K, 14K and 18K Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eThree oval laboratory grown diamonds in a row, the centre one noticeably larger and the two beside it set at a slight angle so the line curves with the finger. Every stone is the same shape and the same cut, which is rarer than it sounds and much harder to source. The result is a three stone ring that reads as one flowing cluster rather than a centre stone with accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentre stone: Oval brilliant 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 oval with a matching oval cut diamond on each side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent stones: Oval brilliant 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\u003eWhy matching ovals are harder\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePear or trillion side stones only have to complement the centre. Oval side stones have to match it, in outline, in length to width ratio and in the way the bow tie shadow falls across the middle of the stone. Get that wrong and one of the three looks off. We sort the sides to the centre by eye, which is why this design is made to order rather than kept in stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow it wears\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause all three stones are elongated and set in a gentle arc, the cluster covers more of the finger than its carat weight suggests and follows the curve of the knuckle rather than sitting flat on top of it. The band is kept fine and plain so it disappears under the stones.\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. Yellow gold, as photographed, keeps the ring warm and slightly vintage. White gold or silver pushes all the attention onto the three stones. 10K is the hardest alloy, 14K is the everyday balance, and 18K is the richest colour but the softest metal. 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.\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. The three baskets are built as one unit so the stones sit at exactly the same height, then the claws are cut and tightened individually. 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. Brush between the stones, where three settings meet and dirt likes to sit. 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 is the diamond?\u003c\/strong\u003e Every centre stone is E colour and VVS2 clarity, on every metal and every carat weight. The oval side stones are matched to the same grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo the side stones grow with the carat option?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. They are scaled to the centre, so a 5 carat version has visibly larger sides than a 2 carat one and the proportions stay right.\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 against it?\u003c\/strong\u003e The side stones sit slightly above the band, so a straight band tucks under them. A curved band sits perfectly flush if you prefer no gap at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The shank carries no stones.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
