How is a Diamond Set in a Ring?

Yet not many people know that the main factor that enhances the beauty, as well as the sparkle of a diamond ring, is its setting. Additionally, the diamond ring setting plays a really crucial role of safeguarding the priceless gems in the ring.

 

 

If you were wondering how is a diamond set in a ring, there are mainly two factors that craftsmen usually consider while setting gemstones into a ring. The first point is to make sure that the metal setting is appropriate to safeguard the gemstones in the ring to the fullest. The second point is to choose a setting that allows the maximum amount of light to pass through the stone so that the diamond shines at its best.

Usually, prong settings are used to secure the gemstones in a ring. Here, the most important phase is the preparation of perfect claws for diamonds. Note that all the claws must be cut at a proper angle and right levels in order to make sure that a diamond can sit level in that setting and allows reflection of the maximum amount of light. After that, diamonds are carefully inserted to the mountings using setting pliers. Finally, each claw is gently tightened to hold the gemstones strongly.
