Handmade Moissanite Flower Vine Ring — 10K & 14K Gold, GRA Certified Moissanite

José Lux builds the Moissanite Flower Vine Ring in 10K gold (41.7% pure gold) and 14K gold (58.3% pure gold), in Yellow, White, or Rose Gold. The gold weight is 1.68 g in 10K gold and 1.89 g in 14K gold. Every stone on this ring is Moissanite, GRA Certified at the center — there’s no Swiss CZ anywhere on the ring. A six-petal flower sits where the band splits into twisted strands of gold, braided together like a vine on both sides of the flower before merging back into a single band. Each petal is built from a pair of round Moissanite stones, tapered toward the center where all six meet. It’s a different structure from our other flower rings — the vine isn’t a separate frame added around the flower, it’s the band itself, twisted.

Twisting multiple strands of gold into an even, consistent braid — one that holds its shape on both sides of the flower and matches from every angle — takes more bench work than shaping a single flat band. Each petal is set stone by stone, tapered so the pair reads as one continuous shape rather than two separate stones. We’ve been alloying gold and setting Moissanite at the same bench in Hồ Chí Minh City for years. The vine strands carry real structural load where the band splits, so the twist has to be sized right, not just shaped to look right.

The Moissanite Flower — Six Petals, Twelve Stones

The stone at the center of the flower, where all six petals meet, is GRA Certified Moissanite — Color D-FL, colorless and internally flawless, Mohs 9.25. It ships with its own GRA report, carrying a unique laser-inscribed ID traceable to that specific stone. Moissanite isn’t a diamond, and José Lux won’t tell you it is. It’s lab-created silicon carbide with its own optical signature — more fire than diamond, which means more rainbow flash under direct light.

The remaining eleven stones filling out the six petals are the same material, cut and matched to the center stone for color and brilliance. José Lux hand-selects every stone at the bench so the flower reads as one continuous shape, not six mismatched petals. What they don’t carry is an individual GRA report — grading each melee-sized stone across twelve total stones isn’t practical at this price point, and we’d rather say that plainly than let you assume otherwise. The center stone is the one with the paperwork. Every other stone in the flower is the same certified-grade Moissanite, hand-set, without individual certificates.

The twisted vine strands that form the band carry no stones — they’re shaped, polished gold, doing the structural work of holding the flower while framing it. That contrast, smooth twisted metal against a dense stone flower, is what gives this ring its shape.

The Gold and Karat Options

The band is solid gold — never gold-filled, never gold-plated. José Lux offers the Flower Vine Ring in 10K gold (41.7% pure gold) and 14K gold (58.3% pure gold). 10K carries less pure gold and more of the harder alloy metals, so it resists everyday scratching a little better — worth knowing on a twisted-strand design, where each strand carries less metal than a solid band in the same spot. 14K carries more pure gold, which reads deeper and warmer, especially in Yellow Gold. Neither is the “better” metal — they’re two different tradeoffs, and José Lux sells both instead of steering you toward one.

Every karat comes in Yellow, White, or Rose Gold. The color isn’t a coating — it comes from the alloy formula, the ratio of copper, silver, zinc, or palladium mixed into the gold during alloying. José Lux’s White Gold is nickel-free; the white tone comes from silver, zinc, or palladium in the mix, not nickel, which matters if you’re sensitive to it.

Every ring goes through four stages at the José Lux workshop before it ships. We alloy 24K gold down to 10K or 14K by hand, in the exact ratio for the karat and color ordered. The vine strands are cast from a 3D CAD design using lost-wax casting, then hand-set with the Moissanite flower stone by stone, and polished to finish. Before it leaves Hồ Chí Minh City, we test the karat with an XRF machine, check for nickel, and stamp the legal karat hallmark.

Certification

The center stone ships with a full GRA gemological report — Color D-FL, Mohs 9.25, and a unique report number traceable to that stone. It’s a Moissanite report, not a diamond grading report, and José Lux states that plainly rather than let the paperwork imply something it isn’t.

Warranty and Repairs

Every José Lux gold ring carries a lifetime warranty. Repairs are free — for life, no expiration date. Every prong on the flower is checked and adjusted by hand before the ring ships, which is why a stone coming loose from normal daily wear is rare.

If a Moissanite stone does come loose under everyday use — no drops, no impact — José Lux resets it for free, center stone or petal stone. What’s not covered: stone loss from a hard impact, a drop, or a strike against a hard surface. That’s not treated as a manufacturing defect. The twisted vine strands carry less metal per strand than a solid band in the same spot, so it’s worth treating this ring the way you would any split or woven band — not built for heavy manual work. José Lux reviews every case individually before deciding next steps, and if a repair falls outside the warranty, we’ll still fix it at cost, with a quote before anything is done.

Our Workshop

José Lux works out of Hồ Chí Minh City, Vietnam. The same team that alloys the gold twists the vine strands and sets the flower by hand — nothing about this ring passes through a third-party factory. A twisted band is a structural piece as much as a decorative one: the strands have to hold their shape under the flower’s weight, and the twist has to look the same on both sides of the ring. We’ve done it enough times to know where it goes wrong, and where it holds.

FAQ

Is every stone on this ring Moissanite, or is some of it CZ?

Every stone on the Moissanite Flower Vine Ring is Moissanite — the center stone and all eleven petal stones. That’s different from José Lux’s channel and pavé settings on other lines, which pair a Moissanite center with Swiss CZ (Cubic Zirconia) accents. Here, there’s no CZ anywhere on the ring — and the twisted vine strands that form the band carry no stones at all, CZ or Moissanite. The center stone carries its own GRA certificate; the petal stones are the same material, hand-matched, without individual reports.

What’s the difference between 10K and 14K gold?

10K gold is 41.7% pure gold; 14K gold is 58.3% pure gold. 10K carries more of the harder alloy metals, so it resists everyday scratching a little better. 14K carries more pure gold, which reads richer and warmer, especially in Yellow Gold. Both are solid gold — José Lux never sells gold-filled or gold-plated pieces.

Is this ring solid gold, or is it plated?

Solid gold, in both karats. José Lux doesn’t sell gold-filled, gold vermeil, or gold-plated pieces on this line. The color — Yellow, White, or Rose — comes from what’s alloyed into the gold, not a surface coating.

How is the Flower Vine Ring set?

A six-petal flower sits where the band splits into twisted strands of gold, braided like a vine on both sides before merging back into a single band. Each petal is built from a pair of round Moissanite stones, tapered toward the center where all six petals meet. The twisted vine strands carry no stones — all the sparkle sits in the flower itself.

What does the warranty cover?

A lifetime warranty with free repairs. If a Moissanite stone — center or petal — comes loose from normal daily wear, José Lux resets it at no charge. Damage from a drop or a hard impact isn’t covered as a manufacturing defect, and the twisted vine strands carry less metal than a solid band, so it’s worth treating this ring like any split or woven design — not built for heavy manual work. José Lux reviews those cases individually and quotes any repair before starting it.

How does shipping work?

Free USPS to the United States, 5–7 business days. Every order is 100% insured on its declared value, including cases where the shipping address was entered incorrectly at checkout.

Where is this ring made?

Handmade at the José Lux workshop in Hồ Chí Minh City, Vietnam — alloying, casting, stone-setting, and polishing all happen at the same bench.
