Facts About Bezel Settings

Diamonds and other gems are held in a bezel setting by a metal rim that encircles the sides of the stone and extends slightly above it. The rim, or collar, can stretch around the diamond's entire circumferance, like the ring above, or around only a portion of it, like the bezel set engagement rings on pages 4 and 5.

A bezel setting holds a diamond securely, and the low, protective profile it creates makes a bezel setting a good choice for people with active lifestyles. Another plus -- a bezel setting protect the edges of your diamond and can hide existing chips.

The engagement ring on this page features a round, brilliant cut center diamond in a bezel setting. A yellow gold rope hugs each side of the focal diamond and additional round diamonds are embedded in the ring's shank.
