Claw setting
This popular setting, which can be 4 claw or 6 claw, requires minimal metal and therefore has more space to allow light to pass through the diamond. This brings out your diamond’s true sparkle.
Bezel setting
A very secure setting, a metal rim surrounds the entire diamond and creates the illusion of a larger diamond. With a scalloped-edge aesthetic and smooth finish, it’s perfect for a modern-contemporary look.
Channel setting
Popular for eternity rings or diamond wedding rings, diamonds are nestled next to each other in-between the precious metal for a uniform flow of sparkle. A secure setting and smooth to touch, it creates a sleek look.
Pavé setting
Standing out for its sparkle, lots of small diamonds are held onto the surface by small beads of metal raised from the ring itself creating a paved look. The difference between pavé and claw is that the prongs are less noticeable on a pavé setting.
