Solitaire Engagement Rings in Lab Diamond & Moissanite

A solitaire engagement ring lets the stone speak entirely for itself — one centre stone, one band, no distractions. At Vai Ra, every solitaire engagement ring is set with IGI-certified lab grown diamonds or SGL-certified moissanite, graded DEF colour and VVS clarity, in BIS Hallmarked 10K, 14K, 18K and 22K gold or platinum. Every ring is made to order.

Lab grown diamond vs Moissanite solitaire engagement rings

Both stones are certified DEF colour and VVS clarity — visually identical and ethically produced. Lab grown diamonds are real diamonds created in a controlled environment, IGI certified for every solitaire, and priced at a fixed ₹35,000 per carat for the stone. Moissanite is a distinct gemstone (silicon carbide) with higher brilliance and fire than diamond, SGL certified, and available at a lower price point. Stone choice is a product-level option on every ring — the same design is available in both. Not sure which to choose? Read our moissanite vs lab grown diamond guide.

Cuts available

Our solitaire engagement rings are available in round brilliant, oval, cushion, pear, princess, emerald, radiant, and marquise cuts. The round brilliant is the most popular for engagement rings — it maximises light return and suits every finger shape. Oval and pear cuts elongate the finger and are increasingly chosen for their distinctive silhouette. All cuts are available in every metal and karat.

Frequently asked questions

What is a solitaire engagement ring?

A solitaire engagement ring features a single centre stone set on a plain or simple band, with no side stones or additional diamonds. The design draws all attention to the centre stone, making it the most classic and enduring style of engagement ring.

Which is better for a solitaire engagement ring — lab diamond or moissanite?

Both are excellent choices. Lab grown diamonds are chemically identical to mined diamonds, IGI certified, and carry the prestige of being a real diamond. Moissanite has more brilliance and fire than diamond, is SGL certified, and is available at a significantly lower price point. The right choice depends on your priority — stone identity or budget. Both are available in every design at Vai Ra.

What cut is best for a solitaire engagement ring?

Round brilliant is the most popular cut for solitaire engagement rings — it maximises light return and is the most versatile shape. Oval and pear cuts are increasingly popular for their distinctive elongated silhouette. Cushion cuts offer a softer, romantic look. All cuts are available at Vai Ra.

Every solitaire engagement ring at Vai Ra is made to order and takes 14 days from order confirmation. Free pan-India shipping is included on all orders.
