{"product_id":"oval-moissanite-twisted-vine-pave-engagement-ring-05","title":"Oval Moissanite Twisted Vine Pave Engagement Ring","description":"\u003ch2\u003eOval Moissanite Twisted Vine Pave Engagement Ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo strands of metal wrap around each other to form this band. One is left plain and highly polished, the other is set with a continuous line of pave moissanite, and the two cross over each other repeatedly on their way to the centre stone. The result is a band that alternates between light and metal as the hand moves, and an oval solitaire that appears to grow out of the twist rather than sit on top of it. The look is soft and organic without being obviously floral. 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 rising from the twisted shank\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Colorless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: VVS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Micro pave along one of the two twisted strands, running most of the way round the band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign and craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe twist is formed from two separate wires rather than carved into a single band, which is why the openings between the strands are genuinely open and let light through from behind. The pave strand is bead set with small round moissanite graduated slightly toward the centre, and the polished strand is left smooth so there is a clear rhythm of stone and metal. Total band width sits at about 2 mm where the strands cross. 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. A moissanite of the same face up size costs a fraction of a mined diamond. 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. White gold, as photographed, keeps the twist subtle because the pave and the polished strand read as one continuous ribbon of light. Yellow and rose gold separate the two strands much more clearly and make the twist the main feature. For everyday wear 14K is harder and holds pave more securely 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. A twisted two strand shank is harder to resize than a plain band, so an accurate size at the outset matters more with this design. 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 build this setting with a lab grown diamond, a colored moissanite, or a different centre stone shape. We can also set pave on both strands, or leave both plain for a quieter twist. 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 the pave are all lab created moissanite, and the ring is sold as moissanite. We never describe it as a diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I wear a wedding band with a twisted shank?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA straight band will leave small gaps where the twist rises and falls. Most people pair this design with a matching twisted band or a contoured band that follows the curve. We can make either in the same metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big does a 2 carat oval look?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn oval spreads more than a round of the same weight, so a 2 carat oval reads close to a 2.5 carat round face up. The narrow twisted band also makes the centre stone look larger by comparison.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the twist comfortable to wear?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The inside of the shank is finished smooth and slightly rounded, so what you feel against the finger is a normal comfortable band. The twist is on the outside face only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo the pave stones fall out?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot in normal wear when properly bead set, which is how we set them. We recommend a bead and prong check once a year, which we do free of charge for the life of the ring.\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, so it cannot wear off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWarm water, mild soap and a soft brush, working into the gaps between the two strands where dust and lotion collect. 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.
