## Two Pillars: Lab-Grown & Natural Diamond Engagement Rings

DEEVE's engagement ring collection is built around two distinct pillars — each with its own character, value proposition, and customer. Both are real diamonds. Both are set in solid 14K gold. The difference is origin.

IGI CERTIFIED

### Lab-Grown Diamond Solitaires

IGI-certified lab-grown diamonds grown via CVD — chemically, physically, and optically identical to mined diamonds. Available in six cuts: round brilliant, oval, cushion, princess, radiant, and emerald. 0.75ct to 5ct in solid 14K white or yellow gold.

**Best for:** Maximum carat weight for budget, ethical sourcing priority, IGI-certified brilliance, modern minimalist aesthetic.

## Engagement Ring Cut Guide

The cut of your diamond determines its character — how it catches light, how it looks on the finger, and the overall aesthetic of the ring. Lab-grown solitaires are available in six major cuts.

#### Round Brilliant

The most popular cut worldwide. 58 facets engineered for maximum light return and scattered sparkle. Timeless, versatile, and the benchmark for diamond brilliance. Available in lab-grown and natural.

#### Oval Cut

An elongated brilliant cut that appears larger than its carat weight and visually elongates the finger. Soft, romantic silhouette with brilliance close to round. One of the fastest-growing engagement ring cuts. Lab-grown only.

#### Cushion Cut

A square or rectangular cut with rounded corners and large facets that produce deep, romantic fire. Timeless choice for vintage-inspired and halo settings. Lab-grown only.

#### Princess Cut

A square brilliant cut with sharp corners and strong geometric lines. Modern, architectural, and highly brilliant. The second most popular engagement ring cut after round. Lab-grown only.

#### Radiant Cut

A rectangular or square cut combining the brilliance of round with the shape of emerald. Trimmed corners for durability. Warm, lively sparkle with a bold, contemporary feel. Lab-grown only.

#### Emerald Cut

A step-cut rectangle with cropped corners producing deep, glassy hall-of-mirrors flashes. Sophisticated, vintage-inspired, and architectural. Clarity matters more with this cut. Lab-grown only.

## Engagement Ring Buying Guide

### The 4Cs — What to Prioritize

The 4Cs

DEEVE Standard

Why It Matters

Cut

Excellent / Very Good

Cut determines brilliance. Round brilliant maximizes sparkle; emerald cut maximizes elegance; cushion delivers romantic fire.

Color

D–G (near-colorless)

D–G is ideal for white gold settings. G–H works beautifully in yellow gold. Emerald cut shows color more — prioritize D–F for step cuts.

Clarity

VS1–VS2

Eye-clean with no visible inclusions. Especially important for emerald cut where step facets make inclusions more visible.

Carat

0.75ct–5.00ct

Choose based on finger size, style, and budget. Lab-grown allows larger carat for the same spend as a smaller natural stone.
