Two sit at the top and bottom of the stone and two on each side, so the outline of the oval is broken by six fine points spaced evenly around it. It is a detail you only really see close up, and it is what makes this setting different from a plain six prong head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnderneath, the band does not simply meet the setting. It divides into two fine strands that cross over one another just below the stone and rise into the basket, so the shank looks as if it has been drawn up around the oval rather than soldered to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOval cut moissanite centre stone in six petal tipped prongs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProngs positioned at the top, bottom and both sides of the stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBand splits into two strands that cross below the setting and rise into the basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlim polished shank, approximately 1.6 mm wide, with no accent stones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen gallery so light passes through under the stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in 925 sterling silver, 10K, 14K and 18K yellow, rose and white gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCentre stone\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone: Moissanite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Oval cut, brilliant faceting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Colorless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: VVS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut and polish: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2 carat, 3 carat, 4 carat and 5 carat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stones\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eNone.

Six prongs protect those ends and hold a large stone more evenly. Against our other six prong design, which sits between pear side stones, this one is a pure solitaire with nothing else on the ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWearing and stacking\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe crossover base sits close to the finger and the shank is plain, so a straight wedding band meets it cleanly at the sides and there is plenty of plain metal for resizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMade to order in Surat, India\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run workshop in Surat. Each petal prong is filed and polished to its point by hand after the stone is set. Every ring is made to order in the metal, carat and finger size you choose, usually within 7 to 10 working days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm water, a drop of mild dish soap and a soft brush around the six prongs and through the open gallery. Rinse and dry with a lint free cloth. Have the prongs checked once a year, as with any solitaire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions buyers ask\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy six prongs instead of four\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOvals chip most easily at their narrow ends. A prong at each end protects them, and six points spread the pressure more evenly across a large stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo six prongs cover more of the stone\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOnly slightly. Each prong here is tapered to a fine petal point, so they take up less surface than four heavy claws would.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a 1.6 mm band strong enough\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes for everyday wear. The band thickens where it splits and rises into the setting, which is where the load is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs moissanite hard enough for daily wear\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
