The shank is not one piece of metal. Two strands cross under the head, separate along the shoulders and twist around one another to the back of the finger, so at every point around the ring one strand passes in front of the other and the gap between them reads as real depth rather than as engraved line. The leaves are marquise cut diamonds rather than shaped metal, which is the difference between this and most vine rings. A marquise is pointed at both ends and swells in the middle, which is the outline of a leaf already, so no carving is needed to suggest one. They are set at varying angles along the vines, densest where the strands gather beneath the oval and thinning as they run toward the back, the way real foliage grows toward light. The oval above is set east to west of nothing and simply sits north to south in plain claws, long axis along the finger, and its smooth elongated outline is what keeps the ring from reading as busy.\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: claw set north to south on an open basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarquise cut diamonds set as leaves along both vine strands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClustered densely on the shoulders beneath the oval and thinning toward the back\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 built from two strands that cross beneath the head and twist around one another to 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 are the leaves marquise cut rather than carved metal\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA marquise is already leaf shaped, pointed at both ends and widest in the middle. Using stones rather than metal means the foliage catches light instead of sitting dark against a bright centre stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the twisted band catch on clothing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The strands are burnished where they cross and the inside of the shank is smoothed flat, so a fingertip runs over the ring without snagging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is the oval set north to south\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSet along the finger, an oval lengthens the hand and gives the vines room to gather at the shoulders. Set east to west it would cover the strands that make the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithin about one size without disturbing the leaf settings. For a larger change we remake the shank so the twist stays continuous and the stones stay evenly spaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much larger does a 5 carat oval look than a 2 carat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn oval spreads more face up than a round of the same weight, so the step from 2 to 5 carat is very visible across the finger. Most customers choosing this design settle between 2 and 3 carat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does the ring take to make\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach ring is made to order and every leaf is set by hand, so allow sixteen to twenty working days before dispatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis design carries a large centre stone and a scatter of marquise accents that all have to match in colour. Lab grown material lets us hold one grade across every stone at a price that would be out of reach with mined goods, 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.
