A full bezel is a solid rim. A wide flat band is a solid plane. Put them together carelessly and you get a lump. What makes it work here is that the bezel is set low and the shoulders of the band rise to meet it at exactly the height of the rim, so there is no step between the two and the eye reads a single continuous surface running from one side of the finger, up over the diamond, and down the other side. The rim itself is finished flush with the top plane of the band rather than standing proud of it. That flush junction is the difference between a modern bezel and a dated one. It also makes this the most practical ring in the range by a wide margin. There is nothing raised anywhere on it, no claws, no gallery, no edges standing above the surface, so nothing can catch, bend or wear through. The girdle of the stone is protected on every side. It is the ring we recommend to anyone who works with their hands, wears gloves, or simply does not want to think about their engagement ring during the day.\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 set low and flush into the band, 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.

The edges are worked square and lightly softened, and the inner face is domed for comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMetal options\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K or 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. Every metal is fully hallmarked. Yellow gold is shown in the photographs, where the warm rim frames the white of the oval most strongly against the broad plane of the band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ring is made to your finger size. Select your size at checkout. A wide band generally feels tighter than a narrow one at the same nominal size, so if you are between sizes we would take the larger. If you are unsure, we will send you a printable size guide before we begin work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCustom orders\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe can change the carat weight, narrow the band, raise the bezel proud of the surface, cut it as a half bezel open at the sides, or brush the flat plane to a matte finish. Write to us through https:\/\/mapplegems.com\/pages\/contact and our workshop will prepare a quotation and a rendering before any metal is cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. 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 this the most durable setting you make\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Nothing on the ring stands above the surface, the girdle is protected all the way round and there are no claws to bend or wear through. It is what we recommend to anyone who works with their hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is it different from your slim bezel ring\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat one sets the bezel on a fine tapered shank so the rim stands as a distinct object. Here the bezel is set flush into a wide flat band so the two read as one continuous piece of metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a bezel reduce sparkle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt reduces light entering from the sides, so a bezel set stone returns slightly less fire than a claw set one. What it gains is a hard clean outline that makes the oval read larger and more graphic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it catch on clothing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. There is nothing raised anywhere on the ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, though a wide band takes more work than a narrow one. The bezel is unaffected. We resize free of charge in the first year.\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 and the flush junction is worked by hand, so allow eighteen to twenty two 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 against a broad plain surface, so any tint shows immediately with nothing to distract from it. Lab grown material lets us set an E colour VVS2 oval of two to five carats in that 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.
