The accents are spaced along the band with polished metal between them rather than crowded into a continuous pave line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlternating two shapes solves a problem that a single repeated shape cannot. A row of identical rounds reads as texture, and the eye stops seeing the individual stones almost immediately. Break the rhythm by placing a pointed marquise between each round and the shoulders acquire a direction, running toward the centre stone rather than simply surrounding it. It is the same principle as a border pattern in architecture, where an alternating motif carries the eye along a line while a repeated one just fills it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCenter stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Oval cut, elongated brilliant\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: Four claw prongs on a raised basket\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\u003eHidden halo of round brilliant lab grown diamonds set around the basket beneath the centre stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarquise and round brilliant lab grown diamonds alternating along each shoulder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarquise accents set lengthwise so their points run along the line of the band\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 slim and rounded, carrying the alternating accents along the upper half of each shoulder and running plain from there to the base. That plain lower section keeps the ring comfortable and leaves a jeweler somewhere to work if the size ever needs adjusting.\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 it lets the alternating shapes read purely as a pattern of light, with no metal colour interrupting the rhythm. Yellow and rose gold outline each accent instead, which makes the marquise and round shapes individually visible and gives the shoulders a more decorative, antique character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ring is available in a full range of US sizes.

A single repeated shape reads as texture and the eye passes over it, whereas an alternating pattern draws attention along the band toward the centre stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the marquise accents catch on things?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. Each one is set low and lengthwise into the top surface of the shank with its points held under filed claw tips, so nothing stands proud of the band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a hidden halo?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA ring of small diamonds set around the basket beneath the centre stone. It is invisible from above so the ring keeps a solitaire outline, and it shows as a line of light from the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes an oval look bigger than a round diamond?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. An oval spreads the same carat weight over a longer surface, so it shows a larger face on the hand, and its elongated outline lengthens the finger.\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 accents stop partway down the shoulders, so the base of the band is plain and can be cut and adjusted normally.\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.
