Pear and Emerald Cut Lab Grown Diamond Toi Et Moi Ring, E Color VVS2

Pear and Emerald Cut Lab Grown Diamond Toi Et Moi Ring

Two lab grown diamonds set side by side on one band, a pear cut beside an emerald cut. Toi et moi means you and me in French, and the design is exactly that literal. Two stones, not one, representing two people rather than a single centre. The pairing chosen here is deliberate. A pear is a brilliant cut that scatters light into small flashes and tapers to a point, while an emerald is a step cut that throws broad flat flashes and reads as calm and architectural. Set together they do not compete, because they sparkle in completely different registers. The curve of the pear also softens the hard rectangle of the emerald, which is why this is the most requested toi et moi combination. E colour, VVS2 clarity throughout, free IGI certificate. Made to order in Surat in ten metals and four carat weights.

Metal options

Available 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. The emerald cut is the more colour sensitive of the two stones because of its open table, so a white metal keeps the pair looking most closely matched. Yellow gold gives the warm vintage look that suits the asymmetry of a toi et moi. For daily wear 14K is harder than 18K and holds two separate heads firmly.

Ring size

Custom orders

We can change either stone to a different shape, adjust the size ratio between the two, add pave to the band, or set the pair on an open band so the shapes float apart.

Frequently asked questions

What does toi et moi mean?
It is French for you and me. The ring carries two stones instead of one, each standing for a person in the relationship. Napoleon gave Josephine a toi et moi in 1796 and the style has been associated with that story ever since.

How is the carat weight counted?
The carat option you choose is the combined weight across both stones. They are cut in proportion to each other so the pairing stays balanced at every size you select.

Why pair a pear with an emerald cut?
Because they behave differently in light. The pear is a brilliant cut and sparkles in many small flashes. The emerald is a step cut and gives wide clean flashes. Setting them together makes each one more noticeable rather than having the two blur into each other.

Is a two stone ring suitable for an engagement ring?
Yes, and it is increasingly chosen as one. It also works well as an anniversary or milestone ring precisely because the two stone symbolism suits a relationship that is already established.

Is a lab grown diamond a real diamond?
Yes. Same carbon structure, hardness and brilliance as a mined diamond. Only the origin differs.

Do I get a certificate?
Yes. A free IGI certificate comes with every order, listing colour, clarity, cut grade and carat weight.

How long does it take to make?
Production usually takes ten to fourteen working days, plus shipping time to your address.

Why buy a lab grown diamond

A lab grown diamond gives the same hardness, brilliance and fire as a mined stone at a fraction of the price, which matters twice over on a toi et moi because you are buying two certified stones rather than one. It is created without mining, so there is no excavation and no doubt about origin. Every stone we set is independently certified.
