Channel Set Engagement Rings

Channel-set diamond engagement rings feature a groove built into the band, which recesses accent diamonds for a smooth—but sparkling—look.

Yes. Channel-set refers to the way in which the diamonds are added, and these rings are available in sidestone, three-stone, and unique-style engagement rings.

The two main factors that go into pricing a channel-set diamond engagement ring are the design of the setting itself and the size and quality of the centre diamond. Tailoring the characteristics, known as the 4Cs, of the centre diamond will help you find just the right stone for your budget.

Pavé settings use a series of small prongs to hold their accent stones in place. A channel setting doesn’t use a claw design, but rather sinks the diamonds in a channel so they’re flush with the band, providing a smooth, snag-free result.
