Two different shapes, close in size, leaning slightly into each other. This is the oldest form of engagement ring there is, made with stones that do not match on purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentre stones: One pear cut and one round brilliant laboratory grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat, the combined weight of the pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour and clarity: E colour, VVS2 clarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertificate: IGI, included free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Claw set, side by side, on a crossover bypass band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent stones: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetals: 925 silver, 10K, 14K and 18K gold in yellow, rose and white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade: To order in Surat, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a toi et moi is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo stones, one ring. The name is French for you and me, and the style predates the solitaire by more than a century. Napoleon proposed to Josephine with one. A pair of stones says something a single stone cannot, which is why the style has never entirely gone away.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy a pear and a round\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatched stones make a symmetrical ring, and symmetry is not the point here. A pear leans, a round does not, so the two sit in a relationship rather than a row. The pear also carries the eye up the finger while the round holds the centre, which keeps a two stone ring from looking wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe band crosses, it does not butt\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two ends of the shank pass each other underneath the stones instead of meeting head on. That is what lets the diamonds sit at their own angles, and it is why the ring has no obvious front or back when you turn it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat laboratory grown means here\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA laboratory grown diamond is a diamond. It is crystallised carbon with the same cubic structure, the same 10 on the Mohs scale, the same refractive index of 2.42 and the same dispersion as a mined stone. Ours are grown by chemical vapour deposition and high pressure high temperature methods, then cut and polished by hand. This is not moissanite, not cubic zirconia and not a simulant. A gemmologist testing it will read diamond, because it is diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMetals\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose 925 sterling silver, or 10K, 14K or 18K gold in yellow, rose or white. This ring was photographed in yellow gold, which suits its history, but every metal is made to order and priced above. White gold is rhodium plated and will want replating every one to two years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEvery centre stone arrives IGI certified\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth diamonds are graded by IGI, the International Gemological Institute, and the certificates come with the ring at no extra charge. Each states the carat weight, the E colour grade, the VVS2 clarity grade, the measurements and the girdle inscription, and confirms in writing that the stone is laboratory grown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMade to order in our own workshop\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a family run workshop in Surat, India, where most of the world's diamonds are cut and polished. The two ends of the band are shaped to pass cleanly, and each stone is set separately because neither sits at the same angle as the other. The tip of the pear is covered by a full claw rather than left exposed. Allow two to three weeks for making, plus shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLooking after it\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm water, mild washing up liquid and a soft toothbrush, working into the gap where the two stones meet and along the crossover beneath. Take it off for the gym, gardening and swimming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions we are asked\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colour and clarity are the diamonds?\u003c\/strong\u003e Both stones are E colour and VVS2 clarity, on every metal and every carat weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the carat weight split?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat options are the combined weight of the two diamonds, divided evenly. Traditionally one stone is slightly larger, and we will do that instead at no extra charge if you tell us when you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the certificate really free?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. IGI reports for both stones are included in the price on every variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I choose different shapes?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. Two ovals, a pear with an emerald cut, a marquise with a round, all work in this setting. Tell us what you want and we will lay it out before we start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush?\u003c\/strong\u003e Not quite, because the band crosses over. A shaped band follows the line, and we will make one to match if you ask.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, at the back. One or two sizes either way is straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
