A round stone at the centre. The heart is drawn twice around it.

A round brilliant moissanite, held in three shaped claws. Around it, a row of pavé moissanite following a heart outline. Around that, a solid polished wall, also a heart.

Two concentric hearts framing one round stone. The band beneath is wide, rounded and completely plain.

Why the centre stone is round

We are straightforward about this: the shape is in the halo, not in the stone.

That is a deliberate choice, and a defensible one. A heart cut loses light — the cleft at the top is the hardest part of any fancy shape to return brilliance from, which is why heart-cut stones often look flatter than a round of the same weight. The round brilliant is the most efficient cut ever worked out for returning light, and it performs from every angle, including the angles your hand actually sits at through a day.

So the stone does what a stone is best at, and the metal does the symbolism. You get the heart — read instantly, from across a room — and a centre stone that is genuinely bright rather than quietly compromised.

Three claws

The centre is held by three rather than four.

Four claws sit at the compass points and break the heart outline exactly where the curve does its work. Three sit clear of the lobes and the point, so the shape around the stone stays unbroken. The claws are tapered and smoothed to follow the halo rather than cut across it.

Fewer claws is a real trade, and worth saying plainly: with three, each one matters more. Check them once a year, the same as you would on any claw setting.

The pavé and the wall

Between the stone and the outer rim runs a full row of small moissanite, following the heart the whole way — into the cleft at the top, out to the point at the bottom.

This is the difficult part. Stone sizes have to step down as the outline narrows toward the tip, and the notch at the top has to be set without the row bunching. Every piece is set by hand.

The outer rim is solid polished metal, not stones. It shields the pavé from knocks — the usual failure point on a halo — and draws one clean unbroken line that makes the shape legible at a glance.

The band

Wide, heavily rounded, plain the whole way round. No stones, no engraving, no shoulders.

The weight is deliberate. A thin shank under a heart head reads as a novelty ring. A substantial rounded one reads as jewellery, and the soft volume of the band is what keeps the graphic head from looking flat.

It's also the most comfortable profile to wear, which matters on a ring people wear daily.

Wearing it

A heart, worn plainly — one shape, drawn twice, and nothing else going on.

The head is wide but sits low, and the outer wall means there are no exposed claws around the edge to catch on knitwear. Easy to live with for a ring this size.

Orientation matters. A heart has a correct way up and a wide round band can rotate if it's loose. Get the size right.

On stacking: the point of the head extends down the finger, so a straight wedding band won't sit flush against it. This one is designed to be worn alone. We'd rather say that now than after.

What is moissanite?

Moissanite is a gemstone in its own right — silicon carbide — not an imitation of anything. It was first found in a meteorite crater, and the stones used in jewellery today are grown in a laboratory because natural moissanite is far too rare to set.

Two properties matter. It is 9.25 on the Mohs scale, harder than any gemstone except diamond, which is why it survives daily wear without the chipping that softer stones suffer. And its dispersion is roughly two and a half times that of diamond — it splits white light into visible spectral colour far more strongly. That is the fire you see: flashes of blue, green and orange where a diamond of the same size returns mostly white.

We say moissanite plainly on every page. It is not sold here as a diamond and never will be.

Why silver, and not gold?

Because the stone is the point. A heavy gold setting adds a great deal of money for metal that sits underneath the stone and is barely seen.

Rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver gives the same bright white-gold finish, keeps the budget in the stone and the setting, and our lifetime replating means the finish stays white for as long as you own the ring. If you would prefer this design in gold, message us on WhatsApp and we'll quote it.

Marked inside

CERELINE is engraved on the inner shank, where only the wearer sees it. Not ornament — provenance.

Made to order

Made in your size after you order, in 7 to 15 days. The band is plain and unset all the way round, so resizing happens well away from the head and never touches the pavé or the setting.

Because orientation matters, tell us if you're between sizes — a loose heart ring turns, and a turned heart looks wrong.

Care

Rhodium plating protects the silver beneath it, and it will wear with daily use — which is why replating is free for life. Store the ring in its box when you aren't wearing it, and put it on last, after perfume and hand cream.

Two places collect residue: the pavé channel between the stone and the wall, worst in the notch and down at the point where the gaps are tightest, and underneath the stone itself.

Warm water, a drop of washing-up liquid, a soft toothbrush worked right around the channel — into the cleft, down both sides to the tip — and up under the head from below. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Monthly. When the pavé goes flat, the outer heart disappears and the whole design loses a layer.

Remove for chlorinated water, household chemicals and fragrance.

Frequently asked questions

Is the centre stone heart-shaped?
No — the centre stone is a round brilliant, and the heart is formed by the pavé halo and the polished outer wall around it. We'd rather tell you that here than have you find out when it arrives. A round brilliant returns more light than a heart cut does, so the stone is brighter for it.

Does it come with a certificate?
Yes. The centre stone ships with its GRA certificate. The pavé stones are moissanite as well, but a separate certificate for every small stone isn't practical, so we certify the centre.

Is moissanite the same as cubic zirconia?
No. Cubic zirconia is softer, clouds with wear and has far less fire. Moissanite is 9.25 on the Mohs scale and holds its brilliance for life. They are not comparable materials and they are not comparably priced.

Will the plating wear off?
Eventually, yes — that is true of every rhodium-plated piece, at any price. Ours is free to replate for life, so it is never a reason not to buy.

How do I find my ring size?
We make sizes 10 to 20. Use the size guide on this page, or message us on WhatsApp at +92 371 4323294 and we'll walk you through measuring.
