Choosing Your Engagement Ring
What distinguishes the Kensington setting?
The Kensington pairs an elegant solitaire setting with delicate micro-pavé diamond shoulders. The additional diamonds lead the eye towards the centre stone, creating refined brilliance without overwhelming its beauty.
What is the difference between a four-claw and six-claws?
A four-claw setting reveals more of the diamond and creates a clean, contemporary appearance. Six claws offer a more traditional silhouette and an additional point of security around the centre stone.
What is better, a white and yellow setting head?
A platinum or white-gold head blends naturally with the diamond, helping it retain a bright, colourless appearance against a yellow-gold band. A yellow-gold head creates a warmer, more uniform finish. The difference is primarily aesthetic, and both can hold the diamond securely.
Will a wedding ring sit alongside the Kensington?
The Kensington is carefully proportioned to accommodate many classic wedding-ring styles. We can also recommend or create a wedding ring designed specifically to complement its profile and diamond-set shoulders.
How are the diamonds in the shoulders set?
The shoulder diamonds are individually micro-pavé set to create a delicate, continuous line of brilliance. Each stone is carefully positioned and inspected to ensure a refined finish and lasting security.
Does the Kensington setting sit high on the finger?
Security is at the forefront of every design we create. Each diamond is set as low as its proportions safely allow, while ensuring a wedding ring can sit as closely and neatly beside the engagement ring as possible.
