Tall Prong Setting

This tall prong setting is designed so that the diamond sits high, showing it off nicely. Tall prongs can easily catch on anything near them. If your fiance leads a very active lifestyle, reserve tall prongs for a ring that will be worn on special occasions, and choose a lower prong for an engagement ring that will be worn every day.
