Tension Style

The setting is the mounting that holds your diamond in place.

Your choice of metal will affect not only the strength of the mounting, but also the radiance of the diamond. The setting must be strong enough to prevent breakage, and it should contribute to, rather than detract from, the brilliance of the diamond itself.


			Tension Normally found in wide-band engagement rings, this modern setting holds the diamond in place on two sides with the compression-spring pressure of the setting. This gives the impression that the diamond is floating in place.
