A baguette held in claws has four small beads sitting on its corners, and on a stone whose whole character is straight lines and sharp corners those beads are an interruption. Instead the baguette here is slotted between two walls of metal: the collar of the centre stone at its inner end and a short squared bar at its outer end, gripping the stone across its full width at each end and leaving both long sides completely free. Nothing sits on top of the stone at all. Because a tapered baguette is wider where it meets the oval and narrows as it travels outward, the eye is carried along the finger and the head appears to extend rather than stop, and the bar at the end acts as a full stop that resolves the line cleanly. The stones are set low and flat, level with the girdle of the oval rather than raised, so the whole head sits close to the finger. The band is plain and rounded with nothing set into it.\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, set north to south\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo tapered baguette cut lab grown diamonds, step cut, one lying flat against each side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBar set, held between the centre collar at the inner end and a squared metal bar at the outer end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth long sides left completely free with no claws or beads on the stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet low and level with the girdle of the centre stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eE to F colour, VS clarity, matched as a pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe band itself carries no stones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal accent weight approximately 0.40 carat, scaled to the centre stone you choose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA plain rounded shank, fully polished and completely unset, rising cleanly to the head.

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\u003eWhat is a bar setting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe stone is slotted between two walls of metal that grip it across its full width at each end, rather than being held by claws on its corners. Nothing sits on top of the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy bar set a baguette rather than claw set it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA baguette is all straight lines and sharp corners, and claw beads sitting on those corners interrupt them. A bar leaves both long sides completely clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a tapered baguette\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA step cut rectangle that is wider at one end than the other. Set with the wide end against the centre stone, it carries the eye outward along the finger.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is this different from your other baguette and step cut sided rings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOthers use claw set tapered baguettes, bullet cuts that come to a point, trapezoids, or emerald cuts. This is the only one where the side stones are bar set with no metal on top of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre bar set stones secure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, very. The metal grips the full width of each end rather than four small points, and there is nothing raised to catch and lever a stone loose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo step cut sides show inclusions more\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, their long open facets hide far less than a brilliant does, which is why we use VS clarity for these side stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, comfortably. The shank is plain and unset.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTapered baguettes must mirror each other exactly in taper and length, and their open step facets show any colour difference against the centre stone immediately. Lab grown material makes a properly matched pair straightforward, so an E colour VVS2 oval of two to five carats sits between two matched baguettes, in fully hallmarked metal, with a traceable origin and no mining.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur services\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIGI certificate for the center stone included at no extra cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order in any size in our range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree resizing within the first year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsured worldwide shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime cleaning and polishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom design service for changes to any element of this ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mapple Gems\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a jewellery workshop in Surat, India, the city where a large share of the world's diamonds are cut and polished.
