Setting 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.

Prong

Typically, four to six small prongs hold the diamond in place. This setting emphasizes the diamond, not the metal, and is a time-honored favorite for many brides. It makes the stone easier to clean and is a less expensive mount.
