A continuous ring of small round moissanites surrounds the oval, following its outline exactly, and the pave carries on down both shoulders and around roughly three quarters of the band before stopping at the base. There is no hidden halo, no twist, no engraving; the entire effect comes from stones sitting shoulder to shoulder in a single unbroken sweep. A halo of this type is the most reliable way to make a centre stone look larger, and the three quarter pave makes the whole ring read as light from every angle. Made to order in Surat, India, in ten metals and four centre stone sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCenter stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: Moissanite, a lab created silicon carbide gemstone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Oval brilliant cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Colorless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: VVS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2 carat, 3 carat, 4 carat and 5 carat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut and polish: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSymmetry: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLuster: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardness: 9.25 on the Mohs scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Four claws inside a full halo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSide stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: Moissanite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Round brilliant cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Colorless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: VVS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalo: A full unbroken ring of stones following the outline of the oval\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShank: Pave running approximately three quarters of the way around the band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign and craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn oval halo is harder to set than a round one because the curve changes constantly. Around the ends of the stone the halo turns tightly and the accents have to shrink slightly to keep the spacing even; along the sides the curve is gentle and they can be larger. Get that graduation wrong and the halo looks lumpy at the tips, which is the most common fault in a badly made oval halo. Our setters lay out the seats for the whole halo before cutting any of them, so the sizes step correctly around the whole ellipse. The shank pave is then cut to match, and it stops cleanly at a defined point rather than fading out, leaving a plain quarter at the base for resizing. Every ring is set by hand in our Surat workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow moissanite compares to a diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMoissanite is silicon carbide, a different material from diamond rather than a lower grade of one. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale against a diamond at 10, it is hard enough for daily wear. Its refractive index is higher, so it returns more coloured fire. In a halo design that matters twice over: the centre stone throws fire outward and the ring of small stones around it throws it back, which is why halo rings look brighter than their carat weight suggests. This ring is sold as moissanite and is never described as a diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMetal options\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvailable in 925 sterling silver, 10K yellow gold, 10K rose gold, 10K white gold, 14K yellow gold, 14K rose gold, 14K white gold, 18K yellow gold, 18K rose gold and 18K white gold. White gold, as photographed, is the standard choice because it lets the halo blend seamlessly into the centre stone and maximises the size illusion. Yellow and rose gold outline the halo instead, so the ring looks framed rather than enlarged. For a fully paved ring worn daily 14K is harder than 18K and holds the small beads better, and 925 sterling silver is the most affordable way to try the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRing size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery ring is made to your finger size, so choose your size at checkout. We make US sizes 3 through 13, including half sizes. The base quarter of the band is left plain deliberately, so the ring can be resized later without disturbing any pave.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCustom orders\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe can extend the pave the full way round, leave the shank plain, add a hidden halo beneath the main one, use a lab grown diamond or a coloured moissanite as the centre, or make a matching pave wedding band. For any other request please contact us at https:\/\/mapplegems.com\/pages\/contact and we will quote it before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this a moissanite ring or a diamond ring?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is a moissanite engagement ring. The centre stone, the halo and all the pave are lab created moissanite. We never describe it as a diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much bigger does a halo make the stone look?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA full halo typically adds the appearance of roughly half a carat to a carat, depending on the size of the accents. A 2 carat oval in this setting reads closer to a 3 carat stone from a normal viewing distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does three quarter pave mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe pave runs from the head down both shoulders and around most of the band, stopping before the base. It gives you the look of a fully set band while keeping a plain section that can be resized.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, at the plain base section. That is exactly why we stop the pave where we do. A fully paved eternity style band cannot be resized without resetting stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush against it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot completely. The halo extends past the shank on both sides, so a straight band meets the halo edge and leaves a small gap. A contoured band curves around the halo and sits properly; we can make one to match.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo halo stones fall out?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRarely when properly set. Each accent sits in its own cut seat held by raised beads. We recommend a check once a year, which we do free of charge for the life of the ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich centre size suits this setting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll four. The halo is scaled to your centre stone so the proportion stays correct. At 2 carat the halo has the biggest visual impact; at 5 carat it becomes a frame around an already large stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWarm water, mild soap and a soft brush, working underneath the halo where lotion collects. This matters more on halo rings than on plain ones. Rinse well and dry with a lint free cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does it take to make?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduction usually takes twelve to sixteen working days for this design, since the halo and shank pave are set by hand, plus shipping time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur services\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree tracked worldwide shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order in your exact ring size, US 3 to 13\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime prong and pave check with cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThirty day return window\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure packaging in a presentation box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConflict free and ethically produced stones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mapple Gems\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a made to order fine jewelry workshop in Surat, India, one of the world leading diamond cutting and polishing centres.
