Radiant Cut Lab Grown Diamond Cathedral Halo Engagement Ring with Pave Band, E Color VVS2

Radiant Cut Lab Grown Diamond Cathedral Halo Engagement Ring with Pave Band, E Color VVS2

A radiant cut lab grown diamond inside a full halo, raised on a cathedral shank with pave running the shoulders. Three elements working together: the halo widens the top of the ring and makes the centre stone read considerably larger, the cathedral arms lift the whole setting and give it height in profile, and the pave carries the line of light down into the band so nothing stops abruptly. It is a deliberately full design rather than a minimal one, built for someone who wants the ring to be seen from across a room. Every diamond is a laboratory grown diamond, identical in carbon structure, hardness and brilliance to a mined diamond, graded E colour and VVS2 clarity. Each ring is made to order in our own Surat workshop and ships with a free IGI certificate for the centre stone.

Metal options

This ring is made to order in ten metal choices, so you can match it to jewellery you already wear.

• 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, 18K White Gold

All gold options are solid gold, never plated or filled. White gold is finished with rhodium for a bright white surface and lets halo, cathedral and pave merge into one continuous field of light. Yellow and rose gold keep the three elements visually separate, so the structure of the design is clearer.

Ring size

Choose your ring size at checkout. We make every size from US 3 to US 13, including half sizes, at no additional cost. If you are unsure of the size, order anyway and contact us after checkout, we will help you confirm it before the ring goes into production.

Custom orders

Want the halo removed, a hidden halo instead of a visible one, a plain band without pave, a straight shank rather than the cathedral, a different centre shape, engraving inside the shank, or a contoured wedding band shaped to sit under the cathedral, we can make it. For any other customization request please contact us at https://mapplegems.com/pages/contact and we will quote it for you.

Frequently asked questions

How much larger does a halo make the centre stone look

Typically a halo adds the appearance of roughly half a carat to a carat, depending on how tightly the accents are set and how large they are. The effect is real rather than a trick of the eye, because the halo genuinely increases the face up diameter of the design. It is the most cost effective way to make a ring look substantial.

What is a cathedral setting

A cathedral setting is one where the shoulders of the band arch upward to meet the centre stone, in the way the arches of a cathedral rise to meet a vault. It raises the stone, adds height and structure to the side profile, and gives extra metal supporting the head.

Is a lab grown diamond a real diamond

Yes. A lab grown diamond is real diamond. It has the same carbon crystal structure, the same hardness of 10 on the Mohs scale, the same refractive index and the same fire and brilliance as a mined diamond. The only difference is that it was grown in a controlled laboratory over a few weeks instead of underground over billions of years. No jeweller can tell the difference by eye, only specialist equipment reading growth patterns can separate the two.

Will a wedding band sit flush against this ring

Because the cathedral arms flare where the two rings would meet, a straight band will usually leave a small gap. Most customers choose a contoured band shaped to follow the arch, and we can make one matched to this exact ring. Just ask when you order.

Is a halo ring harder to look after

It has more settings than a plain solitaire, so it collects more dust and benefits from a regular clean. Warm water, a drop of washing up liquid and a soft toothbrush every few weeks keeps it bright. Have the accent settings checked every couple of years, as you would with any pave.

Does this ring come with a certificate

Yes. Every ring ships with a free IGI certificate for the centre stone. IGI is the International Gemological Institute, one of the largest independent diamond grading laboratories in the world. The certificate confirms the carat weight, the E colour grade, the VVS2 clarity grade and the laboratory grown origin. There is no extra charge for the certificate.

What does E colour VVS2 actually mean

E colour is the second highest grade on the diamond colour scale and sits inside the colourless range, so the diamond looks bright white with no warm or yellow tint. VVS2 means very very slightly included, the second highest clarity tier. Any inclusions are so small that a trained grader needs 10x magnification to find them and they are completely invisible to the naked eye.

Why buy a lab grown diamond

A lab grown diamond gives you a materially identical stone for a fraction of the price of a mined equivalent, and on a halo design that saving applies across every accent as well as the centre. Because the origin of every stone is documented from the moment it is grown, a lab grown diamond is conflict free by definition. Growing a diamond also avoids the open pit excavation, land disruption and water use that mining a comparable stone requires.
