Emerald & Round Cut Yellow Gold Cluster Ring, Split Shoulder Set | CEW01

A smooth, shiny surface that reflects light. It's created using abrasive compounds or a polishing wheel to remove imperfections from the metal.

It features multiple gemstones grouped closely, giving the illusion of a single large diamond or gemstone. While glamorous, they aren't always practical due to their shared stone settings, often resulting in loose or lost diamonds/gemstones. At Essex Bespoke Jewellery, we don't recommend this ring style for everyday use, and it should only be worn for special occasions.

A split shank ring has a band that splits into two or more strands as it reaches the centre stone. This design creates an open space that draws attention to the gemstone.

Also known as French pavé, this setting uses tiny, partially split metal beads to secure the gemstones, creating a delicate fishtail appearance. It allows diamonds to sit low in the metal, enhancing their brilliance.

Gemstones are held by shared prongs connecting adjacent stones instead of each gemstone having its own prongs. This enhances light reflection but offers less security than other settings.

It features tiny gemstones arranged in a tight, alternating pattern. The prongs often appear like additional diamonds, creating the illusion that the entire ring is covered in them.

Yellow gold exudes a classic charm ideal for most engagement and wedding rings. It often contains other alloys to achieve its recognizable colour. While it offers a timeless look and is generally more affordable than platinum, it is softer and can scratch easily, especially in higher karats.
