Today: Selecting a Setting
The setting of a ring is the encasement that holds the stone in place. There are a number of different settings to choose from, from standard to custom. There are prongs, bars, tension, bezel, flush, cluster, and "invisible" styles to choose from. Be sure to ask your salesperson to show you the variety of settings that you have to choose from, Each setting can be desirable, depending on the style of ring that you are considering. The most popular style is the "prong" because it holds the diamond differently than the others, which allows more light to travel through the stone, thus creating more sparkle.
