{"product_id":"princess-cut-lab-grown-diamond-half-bezel-slim-plain-band-solitaire-ring","title":"Princess Cut Lab Grown Diamond Half Bezel Solitaire Ring with Slim Plain Band","description":"\u003ch2\u003ePrincess Cut Lab Grown Diamond Half Bezel Solitaire Ring with Slim Plain Band\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA princess cut lab grown diamond set square to the band and held in a half bezel, with metal folded over the top and bottom edges and the two sides left completely open. There are no claws anywhere on this ring. The reason to build a princess this way is that its four sharp ninety degree corners are the most fragile part of the stone, and a wall of solid metal protects them far better than four thin prongs. Wrapping only two edges rather than all four keeps the full width of the square visible, so you lose no spread. Set square rather than turned on the diagonal, the stone reads as a clean geometric block, which is the most architectural look in our range and the one that sits closest to the finger. Free IGI certificate for the centre stone. Made to order in Surat in ten metals and four carat weights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCenter stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: Lab grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Princess cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: E\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity: VVS2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut and polish: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSymmetry: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat options: 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Half bezel set square to the band, no claws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertification: IGI certificate for the centre stone included at no extra cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA slim round band with a high polish, unbroken all the way around and set with no stones. The bezel walls rise directly from the shank with no gallery beneath, so the stone sits as low against the finger as possible. Nothing else is added.\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, turns the two bezel walls into deliberate bars of warm colour framing a colourless square. White gold and sterling silver let the metal recede so only the geometry registers.

It gives the security of a bezel where the stone is most vulnerable while keeping most of the diamond exposed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does a princess cut need corner protection?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA princess has four sharp ninety degree corners and those are the most chip prone points on the stone. Enclosing them in solid metal is genuinely safer than relying on four thin claws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes a half bezel make the diamond look smaller?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The two open sides show the full width of the square, which is the dimension the eye measures. A full bezel would cover the outer edge all the way round and could reduce the apparent size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSquare or diagonal?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSet square, as here, the stone reads as a clean geometric block and aligns with the line of the band. Set on the diagonal it becomes a kite and looks far more unconventional. We build either at the same price.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this good for people who work with their hands?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is among the most practical settings we make. No claws to catch or bend, a low profile, and the fragile corners enclosed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I get a certificate?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. A free IGI certificate for the centre stone comes with every order, listing colour, clarity, cut and carat weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a princess cut?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA square stone with a brilliant faceting pattern beneath, so it returns light in bright flashes like a round while keeping a sharp geometric outline. It gives more spread per carat than most square cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a lab grown diamond\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown diamond is chemically and optically the same as a mined one, graded on the same scales by the same laboratories, at a fraction of the price. On a minimal setting almost the entire price is the stone, which is what makes a VVS2 E colour princess at 4 or 5 carat possible. It is grown rather than excavated, so there is no mining involved and the origin is never in question.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOur services\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree IGI certificate for the centre stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree tracked worldwide shipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order in your exact ring size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime prong check plus cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThirty day return window\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure packaging in a presentation box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mapple Gems\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMapple Gems is a made to order fine jewellery workshop in Surat, India, one of the world's main diamond cutting centres.
