Solitaire Diamond Engagement Ring Settings

As "solitaire" simply means one, the Solitaire Diamond Ring Settings represent ring settings where there is only one center diamond placed on the band. Solitaire diamond ring means that there is one stone, one diamond that is in the main focus of the ring and there are no other gem stones or diamonds placed on the metal setting of the band. 

Solitaire diamond engagement rings represent simple and clean elegance. The famous jewel designer company, Tiffany's & Co., introduced the first solitaire diamond ring in 1886. It was a diamond on a six-prong setting. The uniqueness of the solitaire diamond engagement rings is the in ability to enhance the beauty of the diamond. While in most rings the design is the most important, in solitaire diamond engagement rings the emphasis is on the diamond.

According to some opinions and tastes, the solitaire diamond engagement rings are very simple and plain and therefore little bit dull. But in my opinion, the solitaire engagement rings do not need to be dull or boring and for many women, they represent simple elegance of a single, sparkling stone which can be the ultimate symbol of single love that two people share together.

When you decide to buy Solitaire Diamond Ring Settings you should decide to buy better quality diamond (considering the 4Cs that a diamond has) because if there is only one diamond placed on the metal setting, that one diamond better to be of higher quality.
 

Before you make decision which loose diamond will be placed on the metal setting, you must decide what kind of setting you will take or more precisely what metal. You can choose different types of metal, for example platinum or gold. If it is gold it will be white or yellow gold etc. 

Many online diamond jewelry shops sell 18 karat and 14 karat gold, but my advice will be to go with 18 karat gold since it is has higher gold pureness. If you choose platinum or white gold, it will give  the ring stunning elegance, as the diamond matches the metal into which it is set, but if you prefer yellow gold, than it will really let the diamond stand out and be main focal point. For more info about the gold pureness and karats, you can read here...

In case you are on lower budget and can not afford more expensive diamond rings, then again my choice is to go with solitaire diamond ring settings because the other diamond ring settings with more diamonds or gems placed on the metal setting will increase the ring price.
