Solitaire rings: different types of settings and diamonds cuts
Solitaire rings differ also for the type of setting:
- In the griff setting, the central stone is held by small prongs, which create a kind of elegant perch to the gem.
- In the bezel setting instead, the stone is set into a flat cavity.
Another distinctive element of solitaire rings is the diamond’s cut, which influences the reflection of the light in the stone. The best the cut is made, the more the gemstone will glow.
The brilliant cut is the most popular among the possible cuts and it has a round shape.
