The cross sits raised at the top of the band, its vertical arm standing clear of the shank and its crossbar running out into the shoulders so the stone line continues along the band rather than stopping at the edge of the motif. Fifteen diamonds run the length of the vertical, nine run across the horizontal, and the two rows share a single stone at the intersection. Every stone is bead set flush into the white gold with no raised collars, and the shank behind the motif is plain polished and slim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarrying the pave out onto the shoulders is the decision that makes this work. A cross set in isolation reads as a motif stuck onto a band, but running the stones past the crossbar turns the whole top of the ring into one continuous line of light with the cross emerging out of it. The white gold matters for the same reason, since the metal between the stones is the same color as the stones themselves and effectively disappears, leaving the diamond line reading as unbroken. At this scale the ring stacks easily and wears flat enough for daily use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRing size 7. The band is slim at the back and the cross stands low enough not to catch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVerifications:\u003cbr\u003eSolid 10K gold has been verified using an Auracle Gold Analyzer.\u003cbr\u003eDiamonds have been verified using a Presidium Adamas Diamond Tester, which specifically distinguishes diamonds from moissanite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails:\u003cbr\u003eMaker: Gold N Diamonds\u003cbr\u003eMetal: Solid 10K White Gold\u003cbr\u003eHallmarks: 10K, GND\u003cbr\u003eStones: Diamond\u003cbr\u003eDiamond Count: 23\u003cbr\u003eStone Layout: 15 Vertical and 9 Horizontal Sharing One Stone at the Crossing\u003cbr\u003eSetting: Pave\u003cbr\u003eDesign: Cross\u003cbr\u003eBand Style: Slim Band\u003cbr\u003eRing Size: 7\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Excellent estate condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFun Facts:\u003cbr\u003eGND, Gold N Diamonds, was founded in 1995 and manufactures and wholesales out of Atlanta, with its flagship showroom inside AmericasMart, one of the largest wholesale trade complexes in the world. That is the building where buyers for thousands of independent jewelers come to source their cases, which means a GND mark comes from the trade side of the business rather than from a retail brand.\u003cbr\u003eDiamonds this size have their own name and their own economics. Anything under roughly a fifth of a carat is called melee, from the French melee meaning a jumbled crowd, because the stones are bought, sorted and sold in bulk parcels by size and quality rather than one at a time. The craft in a ring like this is not in any single stone, it is in pulling twenty three matched for color and cut out of a parcel so the line reads even.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GND - Gold-N-Diamonds, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53108648608109,"sku":null,"price":249.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/8272\/0109\/files\/GND_Gold_N_Diamonds_Solid_10K_White_Gold_Pave_Diamond_Cross_Band_Ring_with_Twenty_Three_Diamonds_Size_7.png?v=1792646322","url":"https:\/\/silverqueenstudio.com\/products\/gnd-gold-n-diamonds-solid-10k-white-gold-diamond-pave-cross-band-ring-size-7","provider":"Silver Queen Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
