Cluster

A cluster setting features many small diamonds to either appear as one big stone or accentuate a larger center stone, also called a halo setting. This can be one of the best statement pieces, perfect for anyone who loves a sparkle. Any cut diamonds can be used for the cluster but the most common is round brilliant diamonds. As the cluster setting can come in many cuts and designs you are sure to find your own significance to you and your partner, for example some people see a halo as a symbol of everlasting love as there is no start or end to the ring of diamonds surrounding the centre stone.

Diamond Shoulders

This style can be combined with any of the previous settings to add even more sparkle. Diamond shoulders feature smaller diamonds going along the band each side of the centre stone. It’s the perfect way to add sparkle to any ring while still keeping an air of simplicity such as adding it to a simple solitaire setting or adding it to a cluster to get the maximum sparkle out of your ring.
