An Introduction to Diamond Settings

Whether you’re looking to buy jewelry or sell your diamonds, much depends on the setting. Most folks think that a diamonds worth is entirely wrapped up in it’s color, it’s quality and clarity, but that’s not always true. If you’re trying to sell diamond jewelry, the setting of the diamond matters quite a bit. If a jeweler were to buy the diamond from you, they don’t want to lose money on the setting. They’ll need the setting to promote the natural beauty of the stone as they won’t be able to afford to reset it. A setting nowaadays should easily enhance the beauty of the natural stone. It should improve the appearance of the metal design around the gemstone as well. The general goal of any setting is to let the most light reach the gemstone so every facet is highlighted and allowed to shine as much as possible while keeping the gemstone securely seated. If the setting receives any blunt force, it shouldn’t be dropping the stone. Additionally, if the stone has blemishes or inclusions, it shouldn’t show those. If possible it should cover those up entirely.
