\"\"<\/p>\n

Head (or crown)<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

The head is the part of the setting that holds the center stone, including the prongs.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Central stone <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

It usually represents 75 – 90% of the ring total cost.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Side stones<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Diamonds or colored gems set on both sides of the centre stone.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Prongs or claws<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Prongs are small metal pieces that hold your gem in place. Usually solitaire rings have 4 \u2013 6 prongs. The more prongs hold the gem, the secure the gem is, although more metal covers its surface.<\/p>\n

Please note that 4 prongs give the gem a square-ish appearance, while six prongs give it a more rounded look.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Accent stones<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Small stones (generally diamonds) that surround or flank the central stone, enhancing its brilliance.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Band or shank <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is the metal circle that encircles the finger and to which the crown is attached.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hallmark<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is the print on the circle identifying the type and purity grade of the metal. Italian law states that all precious metals must be stamped.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

E<\/u><\/strong>ngraving<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Any word, sentence or number can be engraved. This inscription is personal, unique and adds a special touch to your jewel.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The shoulders<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

The two shoulders mark the point where setting and band meet.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Gallery<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is a small metal part that provides support to the crown at the base of the prongs and sits against the top of your finger. It can be adorned with very small diamonds, or more often with engraved details.<\/p>\n
