A solitaire ring can be set with a myriad of different gemstones. We have a stunning selection of pieces set with natural and unenhanced rubies, sapphires, emeralds and many other gemstones.

What is the difference between a claw and rubover setting?

A claw setting is when small metal claws, or prongs, secure the gemstone in place. A rubover setting, also known as a bezel setting, is when gemstone is completely or partially surrounded by a thin metal rim. Both are highly durable and ensure that the central stone is secure.
