This one is solid gold throughout, hallmarked, and built around a certified stone. The marquise outline was chosen because it carries weight visually - at 1.5 carat it reads larger than a round stone of the same weight. See the full \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/all\"\u003ediamond collection\u003c\/a\u003e for other shapes and carat weights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Problem\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlmost everyone hits the same wall. The shape is decided within a week; the size takes months, because the natural diamond that looks right costs three to five times what feels sensible to spend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Solid Gold Changes Everything\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is where lab grown changes the arithmetic. The stone is diamond, not an imitation, and it wears exactly like a mined one. What changes is the price per carat, which is why buyers routinely move up a full carat without moving their budget. The setting is solid gold and hallmarked, so nothing about the ring is a shortcut. Every marquise three stone engagement ring we make is hallmarked and built to the same standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePicture This\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThink about the first week of wearing it - the light catching it while typing, while driving, while doing nothing in particular. A 1.5 carat stone does that constantly. That is the difference between a ring that is admired once and one that is noticed every day. A marquise three stone engagement ring is the piece people remember.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe questions below are the ones buyers ask most often before choosing a marquise three stone engagement ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow much is a 1.5 carat lab grown diamond engagement ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 1.5 carat lab grown solitaire starts from around £1,400 in 9ct gold, £1,700 in 14ct and £1,930 in 18ct. Going from 1 carat to 1.5 carat adds roughly 27% to the price, not 50% - carat weight and price do not rise in step.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does a three stone engagement ring mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA three stone ring has a centre diamond flanked by two side stones. The three stones are commonly read as past, present and future. Practically, the side stones add width and make the ring read larger on the finger.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is a marquise cut diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA marquise is an elongated shape with pointed ends. It covers more finger than any other cut at the same carat weight, which is why it reads as the largest stone for the money.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow do I clean a lab grown diamond engagement ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm water, a few drops of washing-up liquid and a soft toothbrush are enough. Doing this once a month keeps the stone bright. Avoid chlorine and abrasive cleaners - the risk is to the gold setting rather than the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLab grown diamond or moissanite - which is better?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMoissanite is not a diamond; it is silicon carbide. It throws more colour and costs less, but its hardness is 9.25. A lab grown diamond is harder at 10 and is certified as a diamond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre lab grown diamonds acceptable for an engagement ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lab grown engagement ring is no longer a minority choice in the UK. It is a common decision among younger buyers, largely because the same budget buys a noticeably larger stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre lab grown diamonds good for engagement rings?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is chemically and physically identical to a mined diamond: pure carbon, 10 on the Mohs hardness scale. There is no durability difference for daily wear. The only differences are where it formed and what it costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a lab grown diamond a real diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. A lab grown diamond is a real diamond, not a simulant. Cubic zirconia and moissanite are different materials; a lab grown diamond is diamond itself, and is certified as such.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Qutahia Jewellery","offers":[{"title":"Yellow Gold \/ 9 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658793394403,"sku":"101-10506-1-5-MQ-COL_YG-CT_9-LAB","price":2790.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Yellow Gold \/ 14 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658793427171,"sku":"101-10506-1-5-MQ-COL_YG-CT_14-LAB","price":3270.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Yellow Gold \/ 18 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658793459939,"sku":"101-10506-1-5-MQ-COL_YG-CT_18-LAB","price":3645.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White Gold \/ 9 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658793492707,"sku":"101-10506-1-5-MQ-COL_WG-CT_9-LAB","price":2790.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White Gold \/ 14 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658793525475,"sku":"101-10506-1-5-MQ-COL_WG-CT_14-LAB","price":3270.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White Gold \/ 18 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658793558243,"sku":"101-10506-1-5-MQ-COL_WG-CT_18-LAB","price":3645.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rose Gold \/ 9 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658793591011,"sku":"101-10506-1-5-MQ-COL_RG-CT_9-LAB","price":2790.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rose Gold \/ 14 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658793623779,"sku":"101-10506-1-5-MQ-COL_RG-CT_14-LAB","price":3270.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rose Gold \/ 18 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658793656547,"sku":"101-10506-1-5-MQ-COL_RG-CT_18-LAB","price":3645.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0745\/7180\/8995\/files\/large_2e3d547d-f342-4c8c-96f5-a51f195a35a2.webp?v=1788324216","url":"https:\/\/qutahia.com\/products\/marquise-lab-diamond-three-stone-ring-1-5ct-101-10506-1-5-mq","provider":"Qutahia Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
