An old mine moval enclosed in a fine polished bezel.
The moval sits somewhere between an oval and a marquise, with an elongated outline softened by antique-inspired facets. The full bezel makes that unusual silhouette even clearer and gives the ring a smooth, uninterrupted gold edge.
It is a meeting point between an old cut and a very contemporary way of framing it.

Each centre diamond is selected individually for cut, proportion and how it presents on the hand.
Old mine cuts are chosen for character rather than a uniform modern template. Their softer outlines, deeper proportions and broader faceting mean two stones of the same carat weight can present differently on the hand. We select for face-up spread, balance and personality, not the carat number alone. 'Old mine' describes the cut character; laboratory-grown stones are newly created, while natural stones may be newly cut or antique depending on the diamond selected.
Moval is an elongated hybrid outline that sits between an oval and a marquise. Ratios and facet patterns vary by stone, so we select each centre diamond for its individual proportions rather than to a single fixed measurement.
Every MARLII LAB engagement ring is made to order and crafted by hand in Australia. Please allow 10-12 weeks once your design and centre diamond are confirmed.
The setting is made around the proportions of your chosen diamond rather than pulled from stock or adapted from a finished ring. The timeframe gives the workshop room to make and finish the piece properly, without rushing the details that matter.
If you are working to an earlier proposal, travel or celebration date, an express making service may be available for an additional $1,100, subject to workshop capacity. Please let us know your required date before ordering so we can confirm what is possible.
