Instead of pushing small beads over the edge of a flat seat, the setter cuts a V shaped notch into the side wall of the shank on either side of every stone, then works the metal that remains between the notches down over the girdle. Seen from above, the little wings of metal left standing either side of each diamond splay outward like a tail, which is where the name comes from. The technique matters for two reasons. It removes far more metal from beside each stone than bead setting does, so light reaches the accents from the side rather than only from directly above, and it leaves a scalloped edge along the shank rather than a straight one, which catches light along its whole length even when the stones themselves are in shadow. The result on a fine band like this is a row of accents that stays bright at every angle rather than going flat when the hand turns away from the light. Under the head the gallery is left completely plain and open, with no hidden halo, so the pavilion of the oval is exposed and nothing reflects 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 fine claws on a plain open gallery, set north to south\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePave round brilliants held in V shaped fishtail cuts along the shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor grade: E to F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity grade: VS or better\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThere is no halo, hidden or visible, anywhere on this ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank is slim and fishtail pave set along its visible length, leaving a scalloped edge on both sides.

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 fishtail pave\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA setting style where V shaped notches are cut into the side of the shank either side of each stone, leaving small splayed wings of metal that hold the diamond. It removes more metal than bead setting, so light reaches the stones from the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is it different from ordinary pave\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOrdinary bead set pave sits in a flat seat with small beads pushed over the edge, and the shank keeps a straight side. Fishtail leaves a scalloped edge that catches light along its whole length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is there no hidden halo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause this design is meant to leave the stone alone. A halo of any kind reflects light into the pavilion and slightly changes what you see. Here the oval is presented on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the pave stones come loose\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFishtail is one of the more secure pave methods because the metal is worked over the girdle rather than pushed as small beads. We check and tighten every setting free of charge for life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithin about two sizes using the plain section at the palm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does the ring take to make\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach fishtail notch is cut individually before the stone goes in, so allow eighteen to twenty two working days before dispatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith no halo and a fine shank there is nothing to distract from the centre stone, so its colour and clarity are what you are buying. Lab grown material lets us set an E colour VVS2 oval of two to five carats in that exposed position, 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.
