The rim is raised from the same piece of metal as the collar, rolled over the girdle of the oval all the way round and then burnished down until it grips. Getting a bezel right on an oval is considerably harder than on a round, because the rim has to keep an even width as it travels around a curve that changes radius continuously, tight at the two ends and shallow along the sides. A rim that stays a constant thickness looks heavy at the ends. Ours is cut slightly finer at the points of the oval and fractionally wider along the flanks, which is what makes the frame read as an even line rather than as a shape that bulges. The practical case for a bezel is strong. Nothing catches on knitwear, the girdle of the stone is protected on every side, and the ring sits low enough to wear under a glove. The aesthetic case is that a solid rim gives the diamond a hard outline, which makes an oval look larger and more graphic than the same stone in claws.\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: full bezel, rim rolled over the entire girdle, set north to south\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis design carries no accent stones.

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\u003eIs a bezel setting more secure than claws\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The girdle is protected all the way round and there are no claws to bend or wear through. It is the setting we recommend to anyone who works with their hands, wears gloves or has small children.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a bezel make the diamond look smaller\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, and often the opposite. The rim covers a fraction of a millimetre of the girdle but adds a hard outline of metal around it, so the whole head reads larger than the stone alone. What a bezel does reduce is sparkle from the sides, because light enters mainly through the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the ring catch on clothing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. There is nothing raised on a full bezel, which is the main reason people choose it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan a bezel be reset if I change stones later\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, but a bezel is cut to the exact outline of the stone it holds, so a new stone of different proportions needs a new rim. We do this in the workshop and only charge for the metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, easily and by several sizes, because the shank carries no stones and the bezel is unaffected.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does the ring take to make\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe rim is cut and burnished to the individual stone, so allow sixteen to twenty working days before dispatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bezel presents the table of the stone flat to the eye with nothing to distract from it, so any tint in the diamond shows immediately. Lab grown material lets us set an E colour VVS2 oval of two to five carats in that exposed frame, 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.
