Oval Moissanite Marquise Milgrain Frame Antique Band Engagement Ring

Oval Moissanite Marquise Milgrain Frame Antique Band Engagement Ring

The band is divided into a repeating pattern that runs the whole way round. A marquise shaped frame outlined in milgrain holds a single stone, then a tiny round sits in the pinch between frames, then the next marquise frame begins. The stones inside the frames are round, but because the frame around them is pointed the eye reads a marquise.

That trick of shaping the metal rather than the stone is characteristic of Edwardian work, and it is why the ring looks older than the stones in it are.

How it compares

Our bezel set marquise design uses genuinely marquise cut stones, which sparkle differently from rounds. This one uses round stones in marquise shaped frames, so it keeps the brilliance of a round while getting the pointed antique outline. It is also the only design in the range where the pattern runs the entire way round the band.

Wearing and stacking

Because the pattern is continuous, the ring looks finished from every angle including from behind the finger. A plain wedding band sits against it well.

Made to order in Surat, India

Mapple Gems is a family run workshop in Surat. Each frame is shaped and its milgrain rolled before the stones go in, and the pattern is stepped out around the shank first so the repeat closes cleanly at the back rather than leaving a half frame. Every ring is made after you order, usually within 14 to 18 working days.

Care

Warm water, a drop of mild dish soap and a soft brush. Brush along the milgrain rather than across it, and work into the pinch points between frames. Rinse and dry with a lint free cloth.

Questions buyers ask

Are the accent stones marquise cut
No, they are round. The marquise shape comes from the milgrain frame around each one.

Can this ring be resized
Very little. The pattern runs the full circumference and resizing would break the repeat. Order your exact size where possible.

How many accent stones are there
Around thirty in total, counting both the framed stones and the small ones between.

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.

Which finger sizes are available
Sizes 3 to 13 including half sizes. Message us before ordering if you need something outside that range.
