{"title":"Side-Stone","description":"\u003cp\u003eSide-stone moissanite rings — 8 designs where larger accent stones on the band shoulders extend the ring's light signature beyond the center stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA side-stone ring is not the same as a pavé ring or a halo ring. Side-stone settings position larger accent stones on the shoulders of the band — the curved sections on either side of the center stone — rather than setting small stones in a continuous pattern across the band surface. The effect bridges the simplicity of a solitaire and the full coverage of a pavé: more presence than a plain band, more restraint than complete pavé coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe size relationship between the center stone and the side stones matters. In a well-proportioned side-stone ring, the center stone remains clearly dominant while the side stones extend its light return horizontally across the finger. Some designs use matching cuts for a unified look; others pair different shapes to create contrast — for example, a round brilliant center stone with pear or baguette side stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 8 side-stone designs in this collection include emerald cut, oval, and princess cut center stones with various side-stone arrangements. Carat weights from the side stones add meaningful total weight to the ring without the visual complexity of a full pavé band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery stone is D color and VVS1 clarity, lab-created and conflict-free. Moissanite's refractive index of 2.65 ensures the side stones return fire alongside the center.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/9230\/5401\/collections\/Side_Stone.webp?v=1779610023","url":"https:\/\/auroramoissanite.com\/collections\/side-stone.oembed","provider":"Aurora Moissanite","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
