From above there is nothing but the stone and a thread of gold. Turn the ring and a short vertical line of tiny pave diamonds appears, running up the gallery post where the basket meets the shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is what a hidden halo becomes when it is reduced to the smallest thing that still works. A full concealed halo wraps the entire outer wall of the basket and needs thirty or forty stones to do it. A pave set gallery post uses five or six, set in a single column on the one part of the setting that is genuinely visible from the side at conversational distance, and leaves the rest of the basket bare. The saving is not only cost. Every stone added to the outside of a basket has to be set into metal that must then be thick enough to hold it, so a full halo forces the whole head to grow. Confining the pave to the post keeps the basket as slender as an unset one, so the ring stays low, the stone stays close to the finger, and the detail is there for anyone who looks from the side without announcing itself from above.\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: round brilliant cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarat weight: 2, 3, 4 or 5 carat, selected at checkout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor grade: E\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity grade: VVS2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut and polish: excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSymmetry: excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: four claws on an open basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAccent stone details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone type: lab grown diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: round brilliant in fine pave\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlacement: a single vertical column on the gallery post, visible only in profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor grade: E to F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity grade: VS or better\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBand details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shank is a fine polished wire left entirely plain, running into the base of the gallery post without shoulders.

It is carbon in the same crystal structure as a mined diamond, with the same hardness and the same optical properties, graded on the same scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ring come with a certificate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. An IGI certificate for the center stone is included at no extra charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a gallery post\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe short vertical bar of metal that joins the basket holding the stone to the shank. It is the part of a setting most visible from the side and least visible from above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy not set a full hidden halo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA full halo needs a thicker basket to carry the extra stones, which raises the whole ring. Setting only the post keeps the head slender and the stone low on the finger.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is the round brilliant graded differently to other shapes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is the only cut for which the major laboratories issue a full cut grade, because its symmetry can be measured against an agreed ideal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ring be resized\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, easily. The shank carries no stones, so resizing is done entirely in plain metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does the ring take to make\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach ring is made to order.
