The four rounded prongs secure the gemstone while maximizing visibility and reducing the risk of snagging on clothing.

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.

This type of gallery features prongs (or claws) reinforced with a horizontal bar that secures the gemstone in place, creating a 'basket' effect around the gemstone.

The primary gemstone is typically elevated by arches that rise from the band, resembling cathedral architecture. This style can make the centre stone appear larger and more prominent. 

The ring's band doesn't taper or split at the ends and maintains the same width, making it the most basic and common type of ring shank.

18-karat white gold contains 75% pure gold, compared to 9-karat, which has only 37.5%. Higher karat white gold has a warmer hue, even with rhodium coating, but it is also softer and more prone to scratches.

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

A Millgrain finish involves tiny metal beads, often resembling small grains, added along the edges of the jewellery piece. This creates a decorative border that gives the piece a vintage or antique aesthetic, typically associated with Art Deco jewellery.
