When it comes to the overall look and design of a ring, particularly one with a gemstone, one of the most important aspects is the setting upon which the stone is mounted.There is a wide range of settings, and new designs are coming up every now and then.
Your choice of ring setting determines, to a large extent, what the eventual design of the ring will look like, and this is why it is important to know what setting to go for.
We have prepared a couple of classic ring settings for various gemstones that are available on Amazon. They are detailed below.
