Some moments deserve to be captured in forever. This exquisite 9ct yellow gold solitaire engagement ring features a stunning 1.00 carat emerald-cut lab grown diamond, set in a timeless four-claw setting that allows maximum light to dance through the stone. The emerald cut, with its elegant rectangular facets and stepped pavilion, offers a sophisticated vintage-inspired aesthetic that speaks to refined taste and modern values.
Lab grown diamonds are chemically, physically, and optically identical to mined diamonds — they share the same brilliance, fire, and durability, but are created in a controlled environment with a significantly lower environmental impact. This makes them an intelligent choice for couples who value both beauty and sustainability. The warm glow of 9ct yellow gold perfectly complements the crisp, colourless beauty of the emerald-cut diamond, creating a classic contrast that will never go out of style.

FAQ
Q: What is a lab grown diamond?
A: Lab grown diamonds are real diamonds created in a controlled laboratory environment using advanced technology that replicates the natural diamond formation process. They are chemically, physically, and optically identical to mined diamonds, possessing the same brilliance, fire, hardness, and durability. The only difference is their origin — they are grown above ground rather than mined from the earth.
Q: Are lab grown diamonds as valuable as mined diamonds?
A: Lab grown diamonds offer exceptional value, typically costing 30-40% less than mined diamonds of equivalent quality. They are certified by the same gemological laboratories and possess identical physical properties. While they are more accessible in price, they are genuine diamonds with the same beauty and durability that will last a lifetime.
Q: What is an emerald cut diamond?
A: The emerald cut is a rectangular step-cut diamond with cropped corners and long, elegant facets that create a hall-of-mirrors effect. Originally developed for emeralds, this cut emphasises clarity and offers a sophisticated, vintage-inspired aesthetic. It's perfect for those who appreciate understated elegance and Art Deco styling.
Q: Can this ring be resized?
A: Yes, this ring can be resized by our expert jewellers. We recommend visiting our Mall of the South boutique for professional sizing to ensure a perfect fit. As the ring is manufactured in-house by Cassim & Co., we have complete control over the resizing process and can maintain the integrity of the design.
Q: Does this ring come with a certificate?
A: Yes, the 1.00ct lab grown diamond is certified by a recognised gemological laboratory, confirming its authenticity, carat weight, cut, colour, and clarity grades. The certificate will be provided with your purchase, giving you complete confidence in your investment.
Q: Can I have this ring engraved?
A: Absolutely. Cassim & Co. offers complimentary personalised engraving on the interior of the band. You can add a special date, initials, or a short message to make this ring truly one-of-a-kind. Please discuss your engraving requirements with our team when placing your order.
Q: How do I care for my lab grown diamond ring?

Our team at Cassim & Co. is always available to professionally clean and inspect your ring complimentary.
