{"product_id":"oval-moissanite-three-stone-round-side-engagement-ring-37","title":"Oval Moissanite Three Stone Round Side Engagement Ring","description":"\u003ch2\u003eOval Moissanite Three Stone Round Side Engagement Ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe three stone ring in its plainest and oldest form: one large stone in the middle, one round on either side, nothing else. No halo, no pave, no shaped shoulders. The oval sits between two round brilliants that are large enough to matter but clearly secondary, and the band tapers gently up to meet them. Three stones are traditionally read as past, present and future, and this is the version of that idea with nothing added to distract from it. 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 prong basket set marginally above the side stones\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, one on each side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Colorless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: VVS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Four prong claw setting on its own basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign and craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith so few elements, proportion is the entire job. The round sides are cut to about a third of the width of the oval, which is the ratio that keeps them reading as companions rather than as competitors or as afterthoughts. They sit a fraction lower than the centre stone so the eye still finds the middle first. The shoulders of the band rise into the side baskets in a single curve with no visible join, and the shank tapers from about 2 mm at the base down to 1.8 mm where it meets the head. Every piece is finished by hand 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, and with three brilliant cut stones in a row the flashes overlap constantly as the hand moves. 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, is the traditional choice for a classic trilogy and outlines each stone clearly. White gold lets the three stones merge into one bright band across the finger. Rose gold is the softest. For everyday wear 14K is harder than 18K and holds prongs on three separate heads more securely over time, 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 band carries no stones, so a jeweller can resize the ring later without disturbing the setting. If you are unsure of your size, 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 enlarge or reduce the round sides, change them to pear, oval or emerald cut, add a hidden halo under the centre, set the centre with a lab grown diamond or a colored moissanite, or make a matching plain 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 and both round 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 do the three stones mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe usual reading is past, present and future. It is a symbolic tradition rather than a rule, and plenty of people choose the style simply because they like the balance of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big are the side stones?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout a third of the width of the centre stone. Larger and they start to compete with it, smaller and they read as accents rather than as part of a trilogy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy round sides instead of pear or baguette?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRound is the most neutral choice. It matches the brilliant faceting of the oval so all three stones sparkle in the same way, which makes the row read as one design rather than as a mixture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush against it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The side stones sit above the shank and the band below them is straight, so a straight wedding band lies flat with no gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a three stone ring harder to keep clean than a solitaire?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSlightly, because there are three settings rather than one. All three baskets here are open underneath, so a soft brush reaches everything easily.\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 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.
