Invisible Diamond Setting Buyers Guide

What Is An Invisible Diamond Setting?

A diamond is normally “set” in another material using prongs or clasps. In most cases, a precious metal is used such as: 14K white gold, 18K white gold, yellow gold, platinum, etc. As such, most “settings” are visible (even to the naked eye). An invisible diamond setting, however, implies a method of setting the diamond such that it appears to have no setting at all.

A Brief History Of The Invisible Diamond Setting

The concept of setting diamonds “invisibly” emerged from France at the turn of the 19 th century. Since its inception, the invisible setting (and especially of diamonds) has been incorporated all over the world.

What Type Of Diamond Is Best For An Invisible Setting?

Princess cut diamonds are, without a doubt, the most commonly used diamonds for invisible diamond settings. And usually, smaller diamonds are invisibly set – as opposed to larger diamonds. Also, due to the invisible diamond setting method, square-shaped diamonds have proven to be ideal. Although, recent breakthroughs in technology, have paved the way for other shaped diamonds – such as: the “Round diamond invisible diamond setting” and the “Baguette diamond invisible diamond setting”.

What Is The Ideal Metal For Setting Diamonds Invisibly?

Diamonds can be invisibly set on a wide-range of precious (as well as not-so-precious) metals. However, we find that the best choices include: white gold and platinum. For example, the 14K white gold invisible diamond setting has proven to be an affordable and wise choice. The 18K white gold invisible diamond setting is another option, but naturally, more expensive. Nevertheless, many people are attracted to the extra durability of the platinum invisible diamond setting.

Why Choose An Invisible Diamond Setting?

An invisibly set diamond can have more luster and shine with greater radiance than that of a visible diamond setting. An invisible diamond setting portrays a certain delicate beauty; the diamond appears to be floating allowing for greater visibility of the diamond. The invisible diamond setting has traditionally been applied to women’s jewelry. However, there is a growing trend among many bridegrooms who choose to have their wedding bands invisibly set with small diamonds.

Diamonds which are set invisibly appear to be larger than they actually are. This is usually a desired effect and is a significant reason to purchase invisible diamond settings. A large 1 karat diamond is rather expensive but ten small 0.1 karat diamonds are relatively cheap. Those same ten 0.1 karat diamonds can be set invisibly and, as a result, would appear as a single large 1 karat diamond. Thus, invisible diamond settings provide an economic alternative to anyone searching for a large 1 karat diamond.
