Why Buy a Lab-Grown Diamond Shoulder Set Engagement Ring from Joshua James?

At Joshua James, we provide expert advice to help you select the perfect lab-grown diamond engagement ring. Every ring features an IGI-certified lab-grown diamond, hallmarked precious metals, and guaranteed craftsmanship, ensuring both quality and peace of mind with your purchase.

What to Consider When Choosing a Lab-Grown Diamond Shoulder Set Engagement Ring

When purchasing an engagement ring, the first step is setting a budget. Lab-grown diamonds allow you to choose a larger, higher-grade stone for a fraction of the cost of a natural diamond. Next, consider the metal colour—knowing your partner’s preference can help refine your choices. Once you've decided on the setting, it's essential to evaluate the 4Cs (cut, colour, clarity, and carat) of the centre diamond.

Thanks to the affordability of lab-grown diamonds, selecting a high-quality stone is easier than ever. However, some factors still require attention. If you opt for yellow or rose gold, diamond colour becomes less critical, whereas with platinum or white gold, a higher colour grade is recommended. Similarly, an emerald-cut diamond requires high clarity as this shape was originally intended to highlight the patterns and inclusions (the 'jardin') within and emerald, while a round brilliant diamond can naturally mask some inclusions. With so many variables to consider, we recommend speaking with one of our experts—reach out via WhatsApp or book a consultation for personalised assistance.

Do the Shoulder Diamonds Match the Centre Stone?

Yes, we ensure the shoulder-set diamonds are carefully selected to complement your centre stone. Typically, melee diamonds range from D to F in colour and VS2 to SI1 in clarity, ensuring a consistent and stunning finish. The purpose of these accent stones is to enhance the brilliance of the centre diamond, guaranteeing your ring will look breathtaking from every angle.

Can My Shoulder Set Engagement Ring Be Resized?

Absolutely! We offer a free resizing service within the first year of purchase to ensure your ring fits perfectly for years to come.
