The
Gemological Institute of America’s color grading for
yellow diamonds are faint, very light, light, fancy light, fancy, fancy intense, fancy vivid, and fancy deep or fancy dark. As the grading goes up, it means that the
yellow tint goes on becoming darker in the
stone.
It is a known fact that the
stone needs to be set in the ring with proper
settings to make it secured. There are, in fact, many types of
settings for designing a canary
yellow diamond ring, and some of them are given below.
Halo Setting
A
solitaire stone is just awesome, but for more stylish and dazzling look, you can opt for
halo setting. In this
setting, the canary
diamond is surrounded by
diamond or other
stones.
Pavé Setting
The
halo settings surround the
center stone, while in
pavé settings,
paved diamonds accents run along the whole
band. The surrounding
stones can either be colorless
round brilliants or else colored
gemstones.
Side Stones Setting
If you do not want too many stones in your canary
yellow diamond ring, you can go for a
side stone setting. A
three stone setting is the most popular choice here, which features
two stones of any shape on either side.
