{"product_id":"oval-moissanite-three-stone-cathedral-pear-engagement-ring-16","title":"Oval Moissanite Three Stone Cathedral Pear Engagement Ring","description":"\u003ch2\u003eOval Moissanite Three Stone Cathedral Pear Engagement Ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo generous pear cut moissanite flank an oval centre stone on a cathedral shank that sweeps up from the finger to meet the head. The side stones here are large enough to carry real weight in the design, so the ring reads as a genuine trilogy rather than a solitaire with accents. Each pear is turned point outward so the three stones together form one long, tapering shape across the finger. The cathedral rise gives the head height and puts the centre stone forward, and the shank stays plain so the trio does all the talking. 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 claw prongs on a raised cathedral head\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: Pear cut, one large stone on each side with points facing outward\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Colorless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: VVS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Three prong claw setting on each pear, matched in height to the centre stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign and craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA cathedral shank is one where the shoulders arch upward to support the head, the way a cathedral arch carries a roof. It does three things here: it raises the centre stone so the oval sits proud of the finger, it gives the two pears a shelf to sit on at the correct height, and it adds strength exactly where a three stone ring needs it, because the head has to carry three settings rather than one. The pears are set with their girdles almost touching the oval so there is no gap of metal breaking up the line. The shank measures about 1.9 mm at the base and is finished plain and highly polished. Every 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. Large pear side stones show that fire particularly well because a pear has a long facet run from the point to the belly. 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, as photographed, warms the whole ring and makes three colorless stones look brighter against it. White gold gives the classic three stone look and lets the stones run together as one continuous shape. Rose gold is the softest of the three. 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. The plain shank resizes easily later, though ordering the correct size at the outset is always better. If you are unsure, measure the inside diameter of a ring you already wear or ask us for a free size guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCustom orders\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe can scale the pear side stones up or down, change them to trillion, marquise or round cuts, set the ring with a lab grown diamond, or use a colored moissanite for the centre or the sides. We can also add a hidden halo under the oval. 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 and both pear side stones are lab created moissanite, and the ring is sold as moissanite. We never describe it as a diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a cathedral setting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA cathedral setting is one where the shoulders of the band curve upward to meet and support the head, instead of running flat into it. It lifts the centre stone higher and adds strength to the ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow large are the pear side stones on this design?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey are noticeably larger than the small accent pears used on our simpler three stone ring, which is what gives this version its balance. They are scaled to the centre stone, so they grow with the 3, 4 and 5 carat options.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a cathedral setting catch on things?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt sits higher than a low profile ring, so it is slightly more exposed. It is still comfortable for daily wear, but if you work with your hands constantly a lower setting may suit you better.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush against it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe cathedral shoulders curve upward, so a straight band will leave small gaps at the sides. A contoured band that follows the arch gives a much closer fit, and we can make one to match.\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 its brilliance comes from the material itself rather than a coating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWarm water, mild soap and a soft brush, working under all three stones and into the arch of the cathedral where residue collects. 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 ten to fourteen working days, plus shipping time.
