A bezel set engagement ring holds the center stone with a smooth rim of metal that encircles its edge, rather than with prongs. The result is a clean, modern silhouette that frames the diamond beautifully.

A bezel setting surrounds the stone's edge with metal and can offer more edge protection than many exposed-prong designs. No setting is damage-proof, so the best choice depends on your diamond's shape, your lifestyle and the ring's construction.

A bezel outlines the diamond in metal, which can make its visible face appear slightly different from a prong-set stone of the same size. Its clean silhouette can also emphasize the center stone's shape. Compare the actual designs and proportions to decide which look you love.

Bezel settings complement many diamond shapes, including round, oval, emerald, cushion, and princess cuts. Emerald and oval diamonds are especially striking because the bezel highlights their clean lines and elegant proportions.
