Given below are five of the most common and popular 
settings you can consider.
Prong settings: This classic and popular 
setting consists of two or more 
prongs 
that secure the 
stone by wrapping around the crown of 
stone.
Shared prong settings: These 
diamonds ring settings are similar to the
 prong settings except that it minimizes the presence of metal and allows more light to enter the 
stone.
Channel settings: In-
channel set diamond rings, the 
diamonds or other 
gemstones are held in place between metal walls. Here, the 
stones are placed side by side without any metal in between.
 Pave settings
Pave settings: Here, the 
diamonds are 
set low and close to each other using tiny beads. The surface of a 
pave set diamond ring will look encrusted with 
stones for a great brilliance.
Bezel settings: It is so far the best 
settings for 
diamond rings when it comes to the safety of the 
stone. Here, a metal 
band surrounds the entire centerpiece along its edges.
