Oval Moissanite Ring, 1ct to 4ct GRA Certified

Oval is the cut that gives you the most ring for the carat. Because the shape is elongated rather than round, more of the stone sits visible on top of the finger and less of it is buried in depth, so a two carat oval covers noticeably more of the hand than a two carat round. It also narrows the look of the finger, which is why it suits almost everyone. The elongated outline also hides small differences in finger width, so the ring sits more evenly on the hand through the day.

Every stone is GRA certified moissanite, documented for colour and clarity. The certificate is worth having on an engagement ring specifically, because it is the piece most likely to be looked at closely, asked about, insured, and eventually passed on. Moissanite has a refractive index of about 2.65 and a hardness of 9.25 on the Mohs scale, so it holds its fire and its polish through years of daily wear.

The four sizes step up cleanly. The 1ct at 5x7mm is understated and comfortable under gloves. The 2ct at 7x9mm is the most ordered and sits in the sweet spot between presence and practicality. The 3ct and 4ct, at 8x10mm and 8x11mm, are statement stones that suit a longer finger and a confident hand. Sizes run 5 through 9 across white gold, yellow gold and rose gold on S925 sterling silver.
