Oval Moissanite Celtic Knot Braided Band Engagement Ring

Oval Moissanite Celtic Knot Braided Band Engagement Ring

The shoulders of this ring are not a band at all in the usual sense. They are three strands of metal woven over and under one another in a continuous knot, the pattern Celtic metalworkers used because it has no beginning and no end. The weave runs from the setting down both sides and closes into a single rounded shank at the back of the finger.

The oval sits above the knot in four fine claw prongs with an open gallery, lifted just enough that the weave reads clearly underneath it. There are no accent stones anywhere. The interest is entirely in the way the metal moves.

How it compares

Our crossover twist ring uses two strands, one plain and one pave set, crossing once. This is a true weave with three strands and several crossings, and no stones at all. Against the sculpted leaf design, the knot is geometric rather than botanical, which suits people who want meaning in the pattern rather than nature imagery.

Wearing and stacking

The knot sits close to the finger and the back of the band is plain, so the ring is comfortable and easy to size. A plain wedding band pairs best, since a second patterned ring competes with the weave.

Made to order in Surat, India

Mapple Gems is a family run workshop in Surat. Each strand of the knot is formed and joined by hand before the setting is added, which is why every ring is made after you order in the metal, carat and finger size you choose. Production usually takes 7 to 10 working days.

Care

Warm water, a drop of mild dish soap and a soft brush worked through the openings in the weave, where dust and soap can gather. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a lint free cloth.

Questions buyers ask

Does the Celtic knot mean anything
Traditionally the unbroken line stands for continuity with no beginning or end, which is why the motif is often chosen for wedding and engagement jewellery.

Are there stones hidden in the weave
No. The knot is solid metal throughout. The oval is the only stone on the ring.

Is it hard to clean
It needs a brush rather than just a rinse because of the openings, but it is no harder to look after than a pave band.

Is moissanite hard enough for daily wear
Yes. Moissanite is 9.25 on the Mohs scale, second only to diamond among stones used in jewellery.
