CULow Set vs High Set Engagement Rings💍
In a low-set ring, the gemstone is positioned closer to the band. This setting is often chosen for its practicality and comfort, as it minimises the likelihood of the ring snagging on clothing and other materials. It also tends to protect the gemstone more since it’s less exposed. However, one downside is that in most cases (not always) low set rings will not sit flush with straight wedding bands.🤍
On the other hand, (pun not intended) a high set ring features the gemstone mounted higher above the band. This setting is favoured for its versatility and ability to sit flush with most wedding bands and are often considered more dramatic or striking in appearance. The drawback is that they are more prone to catching on fabrics and may not be suited for individuals with more active lifestyles.✨
Or if you can’t decide between the two, why not have the best of both. A floating solitaire setting offers the comfort of a low setting, but the style versatility of a high setting. The open bridge design allows the ring to sit snugly against the finger, whilst still allowing space for a straight wedding ring to sit flush up against it.
The choice between a low set and high set ring often depends on personal preference, lifestyle, and the desired balance between aesthetics and practicality.
Would you choose low set or high set??🤍
