What are the most popular types of jewelry settings?
Jewelry settings are crucial for both the aesthetic and security of gemstones. Here are some of the most popular types:
Prong Setting: Features metal prongs that hold the gemstone securely. This setting allows maximum light exposure, enhancing the stone's brilliance.
Bezel Setting: Encircles the gemstone with a thin metal rim, offering excellent protection. It's ideal for active lifestyles as it secures the stone well.
Pavé Setting: Involves setting small stones closely together with tiny metal beads or prongs, creating a sparkling, continuous surface.
Channel Setting: Places gemstones between two metal bars or channels, offering a sleek, modern look. Commonly used in wedding bands.
Halo Setting: Surrounds a central gemstone with a circle of smaller stones, enhancing the overall sparkle and giving the illusion of a larger center stone.
Tension Setting: Uses the metal's tension to hold the gemstone in place, giving the appearance of the stone floating. This setting highlights the gemstone's brilliance and modern design.
Understanding these settings can help you choose the right jewelry piece for your style and needs.
