Setting Description
This elegant setting with baguette sidestones features four tapered baguette cut diamonds, two on each side of the center diamond. This diamond cut has a clean, dramatic sparkle with step-cut facets and a tapering shape. The matched baguette shapes are set side-by-side in a bar setting, which securely covers the edges of diamonds. The diamonds taper slightly, with the wider ends set closest to the center diamond and the narrow ends tapering toward the band. In profile, the setting has delicate open gallery work underneath the diamonds, allowing additional light on the diamonds. The top of the 2.32 mm thick by 2.52 mm wide band is softly domed, and it tapers subtly towards the back of the finger for comfort. The entire ring is polished to a bright mirror finish. This setting style is one of the most classic, enduring styles, and works well with almost any center diamond. The diamonds in the setting are a minimum of J in color, I1 in clarity. Since the diamonds are in the near-colorless range, they should appear white in the setting. This color should blend well with the color of the center diamond, particularly if the center diamond has a G to J color grade. A center diamond with a D, E, or F color grade may show a slight color difference to the J color diamonds in this setting, but it should not be very noticeable to the casual observer. The I1 clarity grade means that it might be possible to see the internal inclusions in the diamonds with the unaided eye, but it is unlikely that the inclusions would be seen with the diamonds mounted in the setting. The diamonds are well cut, with proportions and polish designed to capture the light and sparkle beautifully in the setting. The setting is made of 14 karat white gold, which is a popular and flattering precious metal for a diamond ring. 14k white gold has a wonderful white color that complements the clear brilliance of diamonds, and is a great value. 14k gold is 58.3% pure 24 karat gold, with the remaining percentage usually being alloy metals of silver, copper, nickel, zinc and palladium. The alloys add strength to the pure gold, which would be too soft for everyday wear on its own. White gold is often plated with rhodium, a metal in the platinum group, to enhance its white color. 14k white gold is not as white in color as platinum, as it is yellow gold made white through alloys. Some people prefer this warmer white over platinum's grayer white. 14k white gold is quite durable for everyday wear. As a precious metal, it will naturally patina, or scratch lightly on the surface, but the original bright polished luster can be maintained through an occasional cleaning and polishing.
