Instead of small stones bead set into a flat channel, each round is dropped into a scallop cut right through the side wall of the shank and held by claws that grip only at the top edge. Look at the ring from the side and you can see daylight between the stones. That is the point. A large accent has a deep pavilion, and if you bury it in metal the bottom two thirds of the stone goes dark. Cutting the metal away in scallops lets light enter each accent from below and from the sides as well as the top, so the shank stones return almost as much brilliance per millimetre as the centre. It also makes the band look lighter than it is, because the eye reads the row of open scallops as a line of stones floating on a thin rail rather than as a solid gold bar with dots in it. Under the head a hidden halo of small rounds circles the basket, so the transition from shank to centre stone is continuous light with no dead metal anywhere in the ring.\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 on a hidden halo basket, set north to south\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge round brilliants set in open scalloped cutouts along both sides of the shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA concealed halo of round brilliants around the basket, below the girdle\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 scallop cut through both side walls so each accent is open beneath and can be seen from the side.

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 scalloped pave\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe side walls of the shank are cut away in a series of arcs so each accent stone is open underneath and visible from the side, rather than sunk into solid metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does that matter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLarger accents have deep pavilions. Buried in metal they go dark. Open scallops let light in from below and the stones stay as bright as the centre.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill dirt collect in the open scallops\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLess than in closed pave, because there is nowhere for it to sit. A soft brush and warm soapy water from underneath keeps it clear, and we clean the ring free of charge for life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the accents secure with so little metal\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Each stone is held by claws worked from the rail of the shank rather than by beads pushed over a flat seat, which is the stronger of the two methods at this size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithin about two sizes, using the solid section at the palm. Beyond that the scallop spacing changes and we prefer to remake the shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does the ring take to make\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe scallops are cut and the stones set individually, so allow eighteen to twenty two working days before dispatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLarge accents sitting in open settings are seen from every angle, so any colour difference between them and the centre stone is obvious. Lab grown material lets us hold one grade across the whole ring at a price mined goods could not reach, 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.
