{"product_id":"oval-moissanite-nature-inspired-vine-leaf-engagement-ring","title":"Oval Moissanite Nature Inspired Vine and Leaf Engagement Ring","description":"\u003ch2\u003eOval Moissanite Nature Inspired Vine and Leaf Engagement Ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn oval cut moissanite sits in double claw prongs at the centre of this nature inspired engagement ring, lifted above a twisted vine shank that splits and crosses like two growing stems. Marquise cut moissanite accents are set along the vines as leaves, gathering close to the centre stone and thinning out as they travel down the shoulders. The elongated oval keeps the finger looking long, and the leaf work gives the ring an organic, garden grown character rather than a formal one. Every ring is 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: Double claw prongs, four positions\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: Marquise cut, arranged as leaves along the vine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Colorless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: VVS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Prong set into open vine work on both shoulders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign and craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank is worked as two strands that twist around one another, so the band reads as a living vine rather than a plain circle. Where the strands meet the head they branch outward and carry the marquise leaves, which are angled individually so light catches them at different moments as the hand moves. The gallery is left open underneath, which lets light travel through the oval from below and keeps the ring lighter on the finger than its size suggests. Band width sits at about 2 mm at the base, widening through the twist. Each piece is hand set and finished by our bench in Surat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow moissanite compares to a diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMoissanite is silicon carbide, not carbon, so it is a different material from a diamond rather than a lower grade of one. It measures 9.25 on the Mohs scale against a diamond at 10, which makes it hard wearing and well suited to daily use. Its refractive index is higher than a diamond, so it returns more colored fire, which is the quality most buyers notice first. A moissanite of the same face up size costs a fraction of a mined diamond, which is why many couples choose a larger centre stone here than they could otherwise consider. 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. Yellow gold suits this design best because the vine and leaf work reads as growth against a warm metal. Rose gold softens the contrast further, while white gold keeps the attention on the stones. For everyday wear 14K is harder and more scratch resistant than 18K, 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. If you are unsure, measure the inside diameter of a ring you already wear or ask us for a free size guide before ordering. A twisted vine shank is harder to resize than a plain band, so an accurate size at the start matters more with this design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCustom orders\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe can set this design with a lab grown diamond, a colored moissanite such as teal or grey, or a different centre stone shape. We can also adjust the number of marquise leaves or the width of the vine. 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 an oval moissanite engagement ring or a diamond ring?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is a moissanite engagement ring. The center stone is lab created moissanite and it is sold as moissanite. We never describe it as a diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big does the oval look on the finger?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn oval spreads more than a round stone of the same weight because the shape is elongated, so a 2 carat oval reads close to a 2.5 carat round face up. The 3, 4 and 5 carat options step up noticeably from there.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the marquise leaf accents catch on clothing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey are set low against the vine and their tips point along the band rather than outward, so snagging is rare in normal wear. As with any openwork ring, take it off for gardening, gym work and heavy manual tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich metal should I choose for a nature inspired ring?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYellow gold is the most popular choice for vine and leaf designs because it echoes the idea of a growing stem. Rose gold gives a warmer, quieter version and white gold gives a cooler, more modern one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes moissanite scratch or cloud over time?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it resists scratching from ordinary contact, and because the color comes from the material itself rather than a coating, it cannot fade or cloud. Ordinary cleaning keeps it bright.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWarm water, mild soap and a soft brush, paying attention to the openwork and the underside of the oval where lotion and dust collect. Avoid bleach and abrasive cleaners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I match a wedding band to it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. A curved or contoured band sits flush against the twisted shank. Contact us with your ring size and we will make a matching band in the same metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does it take to make?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduction usually takes ten to fourteen working days, plus shipping time.
