What is a bezel setting anyway?
Well an elevated collar that is made from metal and surrounds a gemstone (diamond etc.) is a bezel set. Well that sounds great, but really why is this significant? Well one of the main advantages of such an engagement ring setting is that it is great for people who are active and who don’t want to remove their ring every time they do something, because this setting will give it more of a low profile, as well as offer much more protection than elevated engagement rings will. A flush setting for example is not as bold and noticeable as a bezel because it has not color surrounding the gemstone.

Will a more siginifcant color effect the stone?
Many people worry about buying bezel set engagement rings because they worry about how the collar will effect the diamonds color and brightness. Honestly this is just storm in a teacup, because light comes into a stone from its top and therefore light is not at all obstructed by any collar. This setting is therefore as pro-light as the next so you dont have to worry.
The big advantage
A Bezel Setting does not only improve the look of your diamond or other gemstone but it also offers some serious protection for them too. Things like dust, dirt and oil can really effect your stones and could in the long run damage them, with a good collar this becomes much less of a problem and could result in a cloudy and very dull stone, this is what you always want to avoid. It will also protect the delicate edges of your gemstones, making sure they will stay that way.
If you are looking for a beautiful bezel set engagement rings then don’t be surprised when you find out how many different styles there are to choose from. This is both and advantage and curse, because it may make your choice a bit harder (too much to choose from!). These are not just plain and simple engagement rings, but they come in a variety of styles. They can be made with a Celtic design, part of a filigree pattern or used in a pave setting. There is much to choose from.
Whether it be princess cut, round cut or an emerald cut engagement rings, you can find it with a bezel setting if you look around. Even modern day mens engagement rings often carry a bezel setting. Bezel set engagement rings may just be a perfect choice.
