There is a clear gap between them, so the ring reads as two thin bands worn together with a single stone holding them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentre stone: Pear cut laboratory grown diamond, set point up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat\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 on a double wire 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\u003eTwo wires, one ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank is not split at the front and joined at the back: both wires run the full circumference, evenly spaced, meeting only at the setting. Worn on the hand it gives the look of a solitaire stacked with a plain band, without the two rubbing against each other or spinning out of line, which is what happens to a real pair over a few years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy it suits a pear\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA pear is wide at one end and pointed at the other, and it can look top heavy over a single thin wire. Two wires give the stone a visual base twice as wide while using no more metal across the top, so the proportions settle without the band becoming chunky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe point is covered\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tip of a pear is the thinnest part of the stone and where damage happens. Ours sits inside a full claw rather than standing clear of one, which costs a little of the outline and saves the diamond.\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, 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\u003eThe centre diamond is graded by IGI, the International Gemological Institute, and the certificate comes with the ring at no extra charge. It 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. With no accents anywhere, that report describes the whole ring.\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. Both wires are drawn and formed so they stay parallel under pressure and the gap between them remains even the whole way round, which is the entire difficulty of this design. The claws are fitted last, to the measured stone. 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, running the brush between the two wires and behind the stone. The gap collects soap more than a solid band does, so rinse it properly. 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 is the diamond?\u003c\/strong\u003e Every centre stone is E colour and VVS2 clarity, on every metal and every carat weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre two thin wires strong enough?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. They brace each other through the setting and carry load better than a single wire of the same total weight. We do thicken them slightly on the four and five carat versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the certificate really free?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The IGI report is included in the price on every variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, against the outer wire. Many people wear this ring alone, since the double band already gives the stacked look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, at the back, where both wires are cut and rejoined together. One or two sizes either way is straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I have a different stone shape?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. An oval, a marquise or a round all sit well on this band.
