Adele | 1.03ct Oval Cut Lab Grown Diamond Engagement Ring | Marquise & Round Diamond Shoulders | 18ct White Gold
A 1.03ct oval brilliant cut lab grown diamond, D colour, VS1 clarity, held in a claw head and flanked by marquise and round brilliant diamonds tapering down each shoulder, on an 18ct white gold band.
Why this ring works
The oval is one of the most flattering shapes you can choose. It carries the same brilliance as a round but in an elongated outline, which draws the eye down the finger and makes the stone read larger than its carat weight suggests.
Rather than a plain band running into the centre, a small round brilliant cluster sits to either side of the oval, then steps out to a single marquise, designed to frame the centre stone without crowding it.
Every diamond is D colour. That's the very top of the scale, so the stones read bright and icy with no warmth at all, and the white gold keeps that crispness intact, letting the diamonds do all the talking.
The result is a ring that feels classic and modern at once: a timeless oval centre, with just enough detail on the shoulders to make it feel considered rather than plain.
The diamonds
Centre carat: 1.03ct
Cut: Oval brilliant
Colour: D (the highest colourless grade there is)
Clarity: VS1 (very slightly included, completely eye-clean)
Type: Lab grown diamond
Certification: IGI Diamond Report
Measurements: 8.46 × 5.62 × 3.40mm
Accent diamonds: 2 marquise + 4 round brilliants (lab grown), 0.32ct total, VS1 clarity, D colour
Total diamond weight: 1.35ct
D/VS1 is a no-compromises grade. You're getting the highest colour grade on the scale paired with clarity that's completely clean to the eye, and because every accent stone matches the centre at D/VS1, the whole ring stays consistently bright.
A note on lab grown diamonds
A lab grown diamond is a real diamond. It's identical to a natural diamond chemically, optically, and physically. The only difference is how it formed: a natural diamond grew in the earth over billions of years, while a lab grown diamond was created in a matter of weeks under the same conditions of heat and pressure. Once they're cut and polished, only a gemmologist with specialised equipment can tell them apart.
The setting
Metal: 18ct white gold (stamped 750)
