Alternating two shapes changes the rhythm completely. A marquise is long and pointed, a round is short and circular, so setting them one after another produces a repeating long short long short pattern that the eye follows around the finger the way it follows a row of beads on a string. The stones are also spaced rather than crowded. There is a small bar of polished metal between each one, and each stone sits in its own pair of claws rather than sharing beads with its neighbours. That spacing is what makes the pattern legible. Push the stones together and you get a glittering line with no shape to it. The marquise stones are set with their long axis running along the finger so they continue the direction of the oval above, and they grow slightly larger as they approach the head, which draws the eye inward to the centre stone. Beneath the girdle a hidden halo of small rounds circles the basket, invisible from above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCenter stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: lab grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: oval brilliant cut\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSymmetry: excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: four claws on a hidden halo basket, set north to south\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarquise and round brilliant diamonds alternating along both shoulders, individually claw set and spaced with polished metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarquise stones graduate slightly larger toward the head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA concealed halo of round brilliants around the basket, below the girdle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor grade: E to F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity grade: VS or better\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank is fine and round in section, carrying the alternating accents from the head down both shoulders and running plain at the back of the finger.

It has the same carbon crystal structure, the same hardness of 10 on the Mohs scale and the same optical behaviour as a mined diamond, and it is graded on the same scales by the same laboratories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. An IGI certificate for the center stone is included at no extra charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy alternate two stone shapes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA long shape next to a round one creates a repeating rhythm the eye can follow. A single shape repeated reads as an undifferentiated line of sparkle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy are the accents spaced apart rather than set close\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe polished metal between the stones is what makes the alternating pattern visible. Set them tight and the shapes merge into one another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre marquise accents fragile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe points are the vulnerable part of any marquise, so each one is set with its points tucked under claws rather than left exposed at the edge of the shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the hidden halo for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt reflects light up into the underside of the oval, which makes the centre stone read brighter and the head look larger without changing the outline of the diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithin about one size using the plain section at the back. Larger changes disturb the spacing of the accents, so we prefer to remake the shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does the ring take to make\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEvery accent is claw set individually rather than pave set, which is slower, so allow eighteen to twenty two working days before dispatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndividually claw set accents are seen one at a time, so any variation in colour between them shows immediately.
