The pavé has to be micropavé, because ordinary accent stones would not fit across a shank this fine, and micropavé in turn gives a continuous ribbon of light rather than a row of countable stones. The run then tapers twice over. The stones grow smaller toward the palm, and the band itself narrows with them, so the pavé does not end at a step or a squared edge but thins away to a point and vanishes into plain metal. That is why the shoulders look as if they are drawn rather than assembled. Against all this the head is deliberately generous: four rounded claws with real body to them, holding the stone directly with no halo, no hidden halo and no under bezel, so the contrast between a substantial head and a barely present band is the entire design.\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 rounded claws with an open gallery and no halo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicropavé round brilliants along each shoulder, bead set in a single fine row\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe stones diminish and the band narrows together, so the run tapers to a point instead of ending at a step\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eE to F colour, VS clarity throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo halo, no hidden halo and no accents on the palm side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal accent weight approximately 0.18 carat, scaled to the centre stone you choose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA very fine band, at its widest under the head and narrowing steadily as it descends, plain and slightly rounded across the palm.

Every metal is fully hallmarked. White gold is shown in the photographs, and a white metal suits micropavé because the beads holding each stone disappear against the diamonds and the row reads as unbroken light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ring is made to your finger size.

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 micropavé\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePavé using very small stones set with correspondingly fine beads, so the row reads as a continuous ribbon of light rather than a line of individual diamonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a band this fine strong enough\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, in 14K or 18K gold or in platinum. We would suggest 14K or 18K rather than sterling silver for daily wear at this width, because silver is a softer metal and will go out of round sooner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does the pavé taper to a point\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause the stones and the band narrow together. It means the set section flows into the plain section instead of stopping at a visible edge, which suits a fine band far better than a squared finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a fine band make the diamond look bigger\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, noticeably. The narrower the shank beside it, the larger the centre stone reads, which is the main reason to choose a band this slim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is this different from your other oval pavé rings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOthers use a squared hidden halo with pavé along a domed crest, large French set accents ending in a step, a fine pavé eternity under a hidden halo, or a close set halo. This is the only one with a very slim band whose micropavé and width taper away together, with no halo of any kind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The palm side is plain, which is where a sizing cut is made, well below the set section.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA fine band gives the centre stone nowhere to hide, and a large oval above a thin shank is looked at more closely than one on a heavy ring. Lab grown material is what makes an E colour VVS2 oval of two to five carats sensible in that position, in fully hallmarked metal, 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.
