Amazon.com Product Description Setting Description This trellis solitaire setting is a classic choice for your center diamond. Graceful wires entwine to form prongs that securely and beautifully hold a round center diamond. The diamond takes center stage while gracefully integrating with the band. Enhancing the shape of the diamond, the top of the band is rounded with the edges softly squared. The band measures 1.78 mm thick and 3.03 mm wide and has a substantial feel due to the solid precious metal. It tapers slightly toward the back of the finger for added comfort. The setting has a highly polished finish, allowing the light to play upon the contours of the design and reflect the bright sparkle of the diamond. This setting is made of platinum, a beautiful and popular precious metal for diamond jewelry. This pure white metal is the ultimate complement to the clear brilliance of diamonds. Platinum is typically 90 to 95% pure platinum, with the remaining percentage being alloys of other platinum group metals such as iridium and ruthenium for surface strength. Platinum does not splinter or wear away easily, making it the most durable choice for everyday wear. It is valued for its extreme rarity and incredible luster. As a precious metal, platinum will naturally patina, or scratch lightly on the surface, but the original bright polished luster can be maintained through an occasional cleaning and polishing.
