This one is solid gold throughout, hallmarked, and built around a certified stone. The emerald outline was chosen because it carries weight visually - at 2.0 carat it reads larger than a round stone of the same weight.

You set a budget, then discover that the natural stone at that price is half the size you pictured. The choice becomes compromise on the stone or stretch the budget, and neither feels good.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Solid Gold Changes Everything\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLab grown diamonds close that gap without asking you to accept a lesser stone. Identical hardness, identical brilliance, identical certification categories - a different origin and a different price. Combined with a solid gold setting, that means a bigger stone on a ring built to be worn every day. Every emerald lab diamond engagement ring we make is hallmarked and built to the same standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePicture This\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eImagine it on the hand rather than in the box. At 2.0 carat the stone is large enough to read across a room, and the emerald outline is what makes it recognisable. This is the version of the ring you pictured before you started worrying about price. An emerald lab diamond 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 an emerald lab diamond engagement ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow much is a 2 carat lab grown diamond engagement ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 2 carat lab grown solitaire starts from around £1,790 in 9ct gold and £2,370 in 18ct. The same stone as a natural diamond would sit between £12,000 and £20,000 at UK retail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs an emerald cut diamond a good choice for an engagement ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn emerald cut has long, straight facets that produce a mirror-like flash rather than dense sparkle. It shows clarity more openly than a brilliant cut, so it suits a cleaner stone and a buyer who prefers an architectural look.\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\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between lab grown and natural diamonds?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnly the process of formation. A natural diamond forms underground over millions of years; a lab grown diamond is produced in weeks with the same crystal structure. Hardness, brilliance and chemical composition are identical. The price difference is three to five times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo lab grown diamonds have resale value?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLimited. Resale value for lab grown diamonds is markedly lower than for natural diamonds, and continues to fall as production costs drop. If you are buying an engagement ring as an investment, lab grown is not the right choice. Most people buy one to wear, not to sell.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eShould I buy a lab grown diamond engagement ring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt makes sense if you want a larger or cleaner stone for the same budget. It does not make sense if you are buying for investment, because resale value is low. For most buyers an engagement ring is a piece to wear rather than an asset to sell.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Qutahia Jewellery","offers":[{"title":"Yellow Gold \/ 9 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658776551651,"sku":"101-10500-2-0-EM-COL_YG-CT_9-LAB","price":1761.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Yellow Gold \/ 14 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658776584419,"sku":"101-10500-2-0-EM-COL_YG-CT_14-LAB","price":2088.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Yellow Gold \/ 18 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658776617187,"sku":"101-10500-2-0-EM-COL_YG-CT_18-LAB","price":2348.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"White Gold \/ 9 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658776649955,"sku":"101-10500-2-0-EM-COL_WG-CT_9-LAB","price":1761.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"White Gold \/ 14 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658776682723,"sku":"101-10500-2-0-EM-COL_WG-CT_14-LAB","price":2088.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"White Gold \/ 18 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658776715491,"sku":"101-10500-2-0-EM-COL_WG-CT_18-LAB","price":2348.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rose Gold \/ 9 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658776748259,"sku":"101-10500-2-0-EM-COL_RG-CT_9-LAB","price":1761.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rose Gold \/ 14 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658776781027,"sku":"101-10500-2-0-EM-COL_RG-CT_14-LAB","price":2088.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rose Gold \/ 18 ct \/ LAB","offer_id":49658776813795,"sku":"101-10500-2-0-EM-COL_RG-CT_18-LAB","price":2348.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0745\/7180\/8995\/files\/large_b71ef72c-e907-4467-afaf-fe8290da9342.webp?v=1788324108","url":"https:\/\/qutahia.co.uk\/products\/emerald-lab-diamond-solitaire-engagement-ring-2-0ct-101-10500-2-0-em","provider":"Qutahia Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
