A popular wedding ring and engagement ring trend has been pave diamonds, pronounced pah-vay. It is named for the pavement style which the diamonds are set. They are clustered very closely together giving them the appearance of a shiny and shimmering pavement. These types of bands appear more expensive than other diamond rings because of their appearance, but they usually aren’t due to the smaller pieces of diamonds used for the glittering effect.
Pave diamond rings are made from smaller pieces of diamonds that are set inside smaller holes that are drilled within the band, or ring shank. Tiny metal prongs mold over each diamond to hold it in place. When they are all set together, you see a beautiful continuous row of diamonds that shine in every angle.
There are two different styles of pave settings– single band with one row and wide band with several rows. With single band pave, there is one single row of the pave diamonds and are all the same size and luster. The single band can be thin or wide, with the wide band accommodating larger diamond pieces. The wide band with several rows may have the diamonds set at different angles. Pave diamonds bands that do not have a center stone are referred to as anniversary bands or eternity rings.
The most popular metal for pave styles are white gold or platinum and they tend to have a more contemporary look than the traditional solid band and solitaire style engagement ring.

You’ll browse through our selection with ease as you turn through the pages of our large selection of diamond engagement rings.
Round Brilliant Cuts are a very popular choice because they incorporate a combination of clarity, color, cut, and carat weight.

A diamond’s grade depends on four characteristics, also known as the Four C’s: cut, carat, clarity, and color. Together, these properties determine how much a diamond is worth.
The first C is Cut. Cut is extremely important in determining a diamond’s worth. A round brilliant diamond has about 58 facets and the proportion of the facets on each diamond determine a very key characteristic in a quality diamond. The better the proportion of the facet, the more light will be reflected off the diamond and into one’s eye. The diamond will also sparkle more and give off a bigger shine. The cut can also refer to the shape of the diamond such as round, princess, emerald, heart, pear, or oval.
The next C is for Carat. Carat is the size and weight of the diamond. Larger diamonds, of course, cost more per carat because of their size. Diamonds are measured in points, with 100 points per diamond. A half carat diamond has 50 points.
Clarity, the third C, describes how clear the diamond is and ranges from flawless, which is a perfect diamond, to I, meaning Included. It goes by this chart:
–Flawless: the diamond is perfect inside and out. These diamonds are the rarest of them all. Flawless diamonds are very difficult to find and they are the purest. They contain no imperfections what so ever.
–Internally Flawless: These diamonds are inernally flawless and have no imperfection inside at all. These diamonds are very rare.
–VVS1, VVS2: These diamonds have practically no imperfections. It is very difficult to see any imperfections, even under 10x magnification. Diamonds in this range are more rare than the lower clarity grades.
–VS1, VS2: Diamonds in this range are the most sought after for being as clear as possible without the heavy price tag of VVS and Flawless Diamonds. Diamonds in this category have very small imperfections which are not visible by the naked eye and sometimes can be picked up using 10X magnification.
–SI1, SI2, SI3: Diamonds in the SI1 category tend to be eye clean with some exceptions. Some SI2 Diamonds are eye clean as well. Once in the SI3 range, you can expect to see small imperfections by the naked eye. The SI1-SI2 range is very popular because it will give you the most bang for your buck.
–I1, I2: Diamonds with a clarity grade of I1 or I2 tend to have multiple imperfections visible by the naked eye. Diamonds in this range are great because of the relatively low cost compared to other clarity grades. Clients tend to like this range when looking for a larger size diamond at a low cost. As in life, not everything can be perfect, some of the worlds most beautiful gems can have imperfections and still be the most beautiful in the world.
Lastly, the fourth C represents color. It describes the amount of color the diamond contains. The most flawless and perfect diamond should have no color at all. Diamonds can range from colorless to yellow with slight tints of yellow, gray or brown. Some can also range from intense yellow to brown, blue, green, pink and red. These fancy colored diamonds are rare and therefore more valuable. Their range is measured on a letter scale from D-Z, with D being exceptionally white and so forth. The color of a diamond or stone can be determined using a Gemological Institute of America (GIA) Certified set of master stones or by using a Colorimeter. The colorimeter is a computer that accurately grades a polished diamond’s color.
