LOOSE DIAMONDS
Setting Types
Engagement rings are often defined by their setting, which determines the way the diamond is mounted and displayed.
- Prong : A prong setting features several metal prongs that hold the diamond in place. This type of setting is a classic choice and provides a simple, elegant look that allows maximum light to enter the diamond, enhancing its brilliance and fire.
- Bezel : A bezel setting features a metal rim that surrounds and holds the diamond in place. This type of setting provides a more secure setting for the diamond and creates a sleek, modern look.
- Pave : A pave setting features small diamonds that are set closely together on the band, creating a shimmering, sparkling effect. This type of setting is a popular choice for those seeking a more dramatic look.
- Channel : A channel setting features diamonds that are set into the band, with metal walls on either side to hold them in place. This type of setting provides a secure setting for the diamonds and creates a sleek, sophisticated look.
Ultimately, the setting you choose will depend on your personal style, budget, and preferences. It’s important to consider all of your options and choose a setting that you love and that enhances the beauty of your diamond.
