This ring is bold and modern. A long emerald-cut diamond sits flat across a wide, square band.

A 2.01 ct emerald-cut lab-grown diamond is set sideways, so its long side runs across the finger. Small natural diamonds fill the two shoulders on each side of it. The band is wide and flat-sided, with a lattice pattern on the inside. The inside of the band is marked VANHESS.

The gold is 18K white gold, which means 75% of it is pure gold. The rest is other metals mixed in to make it strong enough to hold the stones. There are 6.71 g of gold in this piece. The small diamonds are natural, from the earth. Diamond is 10 on the Mohs scale of hardness, the hardest of all gems, according to GIA. The large diamond is lab-grown. GIA says lab-grown diamonds have essentially the same chemical makeup, crystal structure and physical properties as natural diamonds. Our guide to lab-grown and natural diamonds explains how the two compare.

To clean it, use warm water with a drop of mild soap and a soft brush, then dry it with a soft cloth. Our jewellery care guide has more tips.
