Settings

The perfect setting is one that reflects your personality and life style. Whether for an engagement ring or that special colored gemstone, your setting will be the showcase for your gemstone.

A bezel setting has a rim of metal completely surrounding the stone, offering a great option for those with an active lifestyle. Whether you have chosen a round, heart, pr pear shaped diamond, the bezel can be molded to for any shape or size.

The most traditional choice is the four or six prong setting. While classic in styling, you can personalize your setting by choosing pointed, rounded, flat or V shaped prongs.

A popular choice for wedding bands is the channel setting. In this setting the stones are set into a channel with no metal separations. Often they will flow continuously around the ring.

The concept behind the pave’ setting is to give the impression that the ring is paved with stones. This choice is used when there are numerous small stones set in a cluster with no metal shown.
