{"product_id":"round-cut-lab-grown-diamond-twisted-pave-solitaire-ring","title":"Round Cut Lab Grown Diamond Twisted Pave Solitaire Engagement Ring in Silver, 10K, 14K and 18K Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eA round brilliant laboratory grown diamond raised on a slim head, above a band that splits into two strands and winds around itself. One strand is polished smooth, the other carries a fine row of pave diamonds, and they cross and recross all the way round the finger. The pave never stops, so the ring flickers even when your hand is still.\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: Claw set round on a twisted infinity band, one polished strand and one pave strand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccent stones: Round laboratory grown diamonds, E colour, VVS2\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\u003eThe infinity twist\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the two strands wrap rather than sit side by side, the band has no obvious beginning or end. That endless line is the reason this style is so often chosen as an engagement ring, and it is also why it photographs so well from the side, where the crossover is most visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTwo textures, one band\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlain polished gold reflects in broad sheets. Pave diamonds scatter light into small points. Twisting one around the other means the ring never reads as flat metal or as a solid line of stones, it alternates. On a round brilliant centre, which is already the brightest cut there is, that keeps the shank from competing with 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. Yellow gold is shown and gives the strongest contrast between the polished strand and the diamond strand. 10K is the hardest alloy, 14K is the everyday balance, and 18K is the richest colour but the softest metal. 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.\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 twist is formed first, then each pave seat is drilled and beaded along a curve that is never straight, which is the fiddly part of this design. 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. Follow the groove where the two strands cross, because that is where soap and lotion collect. 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. The pave accents are matched to the same grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the twist make the ring uncomfortable?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The inside of the shank is finished flat and smooth, so only the outside shows the twist.\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 against it?\u003c\/strong\u003e A straight band meets the twist at the high points and leaves small gaps. Most customers pair this one with a matching twisted or curved band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be resized?\u003c\/strong\u003e Within a size or two, yes, but the pave runs a long way round, so tell us your size as accurately as you can.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapple Gems","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 2
