The head is a plain solitaire with nothing around the stone, so all the added sparkle sits on the band where it frames the centre rather than competing with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentre stone: Round brilliant laboratory grown diamond\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: Six claw solitaire on an open basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent stones: Round brilliant laboratory grown diamonds pave set in the shoulders, E colour, VVS2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBand: Pave set shoulders, plain at the back\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\u003eA solitaire with a lit band\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the most requested variation on a plain solitaire. The centre stone is set exactly as it would be on a plain shank, six claws and an open basket, and the only change is a line of small diamonds running down each shoulder. It reads as one continuous line of light from the finger up into the stone, and it makes a modest centre look better placed than it does on bare metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePave that stops halfway\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shoulder stones run about halfway down each side and then the band goes plain. Pave all the way round photographs well and wears badly, because the stones under the finger take the abrasion and the ring cannot be resized without cutting through set metal. Stopping the pave where it does keeps the sparkle where you see it and leaves solid metal at the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSix claws on the centre\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSix rather than four, evenly spaced around the girdle. On a round brilliant six claws hold the stone more securely and spread the pressure, and on a large stone they stop it reading as slightly square. They are filed low so the diamond is not interrupted from above.\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 white metal, and 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 cut grade, the measurements and the girdle inscription, and confirms in writing that the stone is laboratory grown. Every pave accent is matched to the same E and VVS2 grade.\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 pave is bead set by hand, one grain at a time, and both shoulders are matched to each other before the shank is closed so the two lines end at the same point. 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, brushing along the pave from both sides and up into the basket from underneath. Pave traps hand cream between the beads, so brush rather than rinse. Take the ring 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 The centre round and every pave accent are E colour and VVS2 clarity, on all metals and all carat weights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the carat weight include the pave?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The 2, 3, 4 and 5 carat options refer to the centre round brilliant. The shoulder stones are in addition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the pave stones fall out?\u003c\/strong\u003e Bead setting is secure when the beads are raised properly, which is why we set by hand rather than casting them in place. As with any pave ring, have the beads checked every couple of years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the certificate really free?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The IGI report for the centre stone is included in the price on every variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill a wedding band sit flush?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The head sits above a narrow basket and the pave is level with the shank, so a straight band meets the ring cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, at the back where the band is plain. One or two sizes either way is straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
