BAUNAT’s Guide to Solitaire Settings

At BAUNAT, we firmly believe in the power of a solitaire setting. Primarily, a solitaire setting is a design that showcases a single, radiant diamond, a testament to our belief in unveiling natural beauty. It could be an elegant necklace, a pair of shining gold earrings or an exclusive piece of men's jewellery. The diamond is held in place with a series of clamps or prongs, positioned to catch and reflect the maximum amount of light, thereby enhancing its natural brilliance. ​

Read summary

What makes solitaire settings so special in diamond jewelry, and how can you choose the perfect one?

A solitaire setting elegantly showcases a single diamond, maximizing its natural brilliance through strategic placement of prongs or clamps that capture light perfectly. Whether in rings, necklaces, or earrings, these settings have become timeless symbols of love, particularly in engagement rings. BAUNAT offers various setting options to suit different preferences: the classic prong setting uses four or six prongs to secure the stone, the cathedral setting features Gothic-inspired architecture, the tension setting creates a floating effect, and the bezel setting fully encases the diamond for protection. The diamond's shape plays a crucial role in the overall design, with brilliant cuts being particularly popular, while princess and pear shapes offer trendy alternatives. Each setting type uniquely enhances the diamond's beauty while ensuring its security, making solitaires a perpetually elegant choice for meaningful jewelry pieces.

Solitaire diamonds, particularly in engagement rings, serve as timeless symbols of endless love and loyalty. The moment a man proposes with a breathtaking diamond solitaire ring from BAUNAT, it etches a moment in time that will forever be remembered.

 

Each glance at her BAUNAT diamond ring transports her back to the romantic event that changed her life forever. Many men opt for the resplendent elegance of our traditional diamond solitaire setting, a decision complimented by the ring's versatility in complementing every style. Choose from a multitude of types and allow BAUNAT's personal service to guide you. 

 

Choosing the Perfect Shape for Solitaire Diamonds 

 

Every solitaire setting starts with selecting the ideal diamond shape. The radiant solitaire engagement ring, adorned with a highly reflective brilliant cut diamond, is a much-loved choice among BAUNAT clientele. However, our trendy princess cut and pear-shaped diamonds are gaining popularity. Keep in mind how the diamond will be set; a four-prong setting gives an angular appearance, while six prongs lend to a more rounded look. 

 

Exploring BAUNAT’s Range of Solitaire Settings 

 

Once the diamond shape is selected, the perfect setting type comes next. BAUNAT offers a variety of settings each designed to secure the diamond in place: 

 

  1. The prong setting: Our most popular choice where the diamond is securely held in four or six prongs. 

 

  1. The cathedral setting: With sides reminiscent of a Gothic cathedral vault, this setting holds the solitaire diamond securely. 

 

  1. The tension setting: The diamond appears to float between two precious metal 'arms', with no precious metal underneath, making it easy to clean. 

 

  1. The bezel setting: The solitaire diamond is framed completely by a precious metal band, not only making it appear larger but also better protected. 

 

Regardless of the diamond shape and setting you prefer, BAUNAT's handcrafted jewellery from Antwerp promises a stunning diamond solitaire ring to surprise your loved one.
