It is broad at one end, its two long sides converge as they travel, and it finishes in a blunted point rather than a flat edge, so it looks like a shield or a bullet nose. Placed with the broad end against the oval and the point facing outward, it does something a baguette cannot: the width tapers away gradually, so the eye travels from the centre stone outward along a narrowing line and the head appears to melt into the shoulders instead of stopping abruptly. That is why the ring reads as wide and generous across the finger without looking like three separate blocks of diamond. The cut itself is a step cut, faceted in long parallel planes, so the sides give broad calm flashes against the busy scatter of the brilliant cut oval between them. The band is a fine round wire with no stones and no ornament so nothing competes with the outline of the three stones.\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, set north to south\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo bullet cut lab grown diamonds, step cut, one on each side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBroad end against the centre stone, tapering outward to a blunted point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeld in slim claws at the broad end and at the point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eE to F colour, VS clarity, matched as a pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe band itself carries no stones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal accent weight approximately 0.55 carat, scaled to the centre stone you choose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA fine round shank, fully polished, plain and unset, rising cleanly to the three stone head.

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 a bullet cut\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA step cut stone that is broad at one end, narrows along its length and finishes in a blunted point rather than a flat edge, so its outline resembles a shield or a bullet nose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is a bullet different from a tapered baguette\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA tapered baguette narrows but still ends in a short flat edge. A bullet comes to a blunted point, so the taper resolves rather than stopping, and the head appears to flow into the shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy pair step cut sides with a brilliant centre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe oval scatters light into many small flashes and the step cut sides give broad calm ones. The contrast makes both more visible than either would be beside a stone of its own kind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is this different from your other step cut sided rings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOthers use tapered baguettes, trapezoids, or emerald cuts at modest or very large scale. This is the only one using bullet cuts with the point facing outward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre bullet cut stones fragile at the point\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe point is blunted rather than sharp, which is exactly why the cut is made that way, and a claw sits over it. It is no more vulnerable than the tip of a pear side stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, comfortably. The shank is plain and unset.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBullet cuts are cut to order rather than bought from stock, they must mirror one another exactly, and their open step facets show colour that a brilliant would hide. Lab grown material is what makes a properly matched pair affordable, so an E colour VVS2 oval of two to five carats sits between two matched bullets, 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.
