All About Ring Settings
Prong
A prong setting features small metal claws that grip the stone. This setting type allows maximum light exposure for extra sparkle. It’s classic and elegant, but be careful—prongs can snag on fabric.
Shared Prong
A shared prong setting is a variation of a traditional prong setting where multiple diamonds share prongs, creating a seamless row of sparkle. This setting is perfect for bands with side stones.
Channel
Channel set diamonds are nestled between two strips of metal for a sleek, modern look. Since there are no prongs, it’s a great low-maintenance option.
Bezel
A bezel setting features a metal rim that encircles the stone for a smooth, protective setting. Ideal for active lifestyles and vintage-inspired designs. The bezel setting, one of the oldest setting styles, dates back to ancient times and was used in signet rings and royal jewelry.
Half-Bezel
Similar to a full bezel setting but has open sides, allowing more light to enter the stone while still providing protection. A perfect balance between security and sparkle!
Pavé
A Pavé setting is when tiny diamonds are set close together on the band, creating a shimmering, “paved” effect. More sparkle, less metal!
Trellis
A trellis setting refers to an interwoven prong setting that adds an intricate, sculptural effect. It’s a stylish choice for those who love a little extra detail.
