As astonishing as a diamond may look, it is equally important to have them set properly in other to truly reveal their essence. A setting is just as important as the diamond as the mounting of the engagement ring affects the design of the ring. There are a couple of factors that add to the overall beauty and allure of a diamond ring, afterall diamonds may be forever but your setting should be as well.

There are two major parts of a ring that are integral to setting which are the shank and the gallery, the former represents the body of the ring while the latter represents the head where the diamond is set. In this article I would be listing five of Best engagement ring setting types and highlighting their pros and cons in order to make it easy for you to determine the best engagement ring for you and your significant other.

1. Solitaire diamond ring setting: This is the best engagement ring for simplicity, it is a diamond attached to simple band with no side diamonds or gemstones. Its center stone is usually large and well supported by prongs that make it shine and stand out on the band. However, its large gemstone makes it easy for it to be scratched or damaged and must be handled with care.

2. Invisible diamond ring setting: This ring setting is perfect for engagement rings due to its near invisible nature, the diamonds are meticulously adorned around the body of the ring carefully concealing the metal hence given the engagement ring a very huge diamond look that stands out, however setting of this type can be expensive and delicate due to the limited amount of metal on it, the diamond has a higher chance of falling off easily.

3. Bezel diamond ring setting: This type of ring setting is popular among sports persons

and people that use their hands a lot for rigorous activities, the side diamonds and perfectly cut to fit the ring, with little to no excess metal. However, it has been argued that the bezel setting doesn’t shine as bright as other diamond rings as it doesn’t allow as much light to pass through it.

4. Princess cut diamond ring: This ring setting very common and popular among women especially for its enormous diamond head as the gallery elevates the main diamond making it shine and sparkle. However, it is a common type of diamond ring and may not be as exclusive as the wearer might want for an engagement ring.

5. Emerald cut diamond setting:   A very popular diamond ring known for its rectangular diamond center piece which are also less expensive compared to some other diamond rings and cuts. Due to the rectangular nature, it makes the fingers look slenderer and more elegant. The sides are also very taper allowing for a vast amount of light into the center stone which allows it to sparkle fervently. However, with so much clarity with the gem also means higher transparency which could reveal the flaws in the diamond if it is not entirely pure.
