A guide to the different
engagement ring settings
The setting of your engagement ring is one of the most important considerations when shopping for this jewel that
will represent the love you share for many years to come. It determines the design and aesthetic more than any other
factor while at the same time securing the stones firmly in place.
Discover the different types of engagement ring setting at Budrevich, each of which brings a diamond or coloured
stone to life in its own unique way.
Solitaire
setting
The quintessential engagement ring style, the solitaire setting features a single, central stone set upon a simple band.
Pure and minimalist, it's a timeless design that sets your diamond or coloured stone centre stage, with no additional
flourishes to detract from its beauty. If you are looking for an engagement ring that combines simplicity and
elegance, the solitaire setting is a true classic.
Diamond shoulder
solitaire setting
Accentuating a solitaire stone with smaller diamonds set into the shoulders ‐ where the setting joins the upper part
of the band - is a classic way to amplify the brilliance of your engagement ring. These elegant rows of accent
diamonds add extra detail to simple solitaire settings and their subtle flashes of scintillation are the perfect
complement to the sparkly halo engagement ring setting.
Halo
setting
The most striking of all the engagement ring settings, the halo is designed to deliver maximum scintillation. Placing
a halo of smaller diamonds around a centre stone to form an intensely sparkly frame creates another layer of
brilliance and has the effect of making the diamond appear larger. For even more impact, a diamond-set band works
magnificently with this setting.
Three stone
setting
Also known as a trilogy ring, the three stone engagement ring setting is the embodiment of romance, with three
stones said to represent the past, the present and the future. A stylish alternative to a solitaire engagement ring, a trio
of diamonds set in a row is a classic three stone look, while a central diamond accompanied by two coloured stones
on either side is a vibrant alternative. The side stones are more than simple embellishment. They guide the eye to the
central stone and enhance its brilliance.
