Some say that diamonds are forever and yes—they are costly too. So when you do purchase one jewelry piece and you would want to have diamond setting on them you should consider bezel setting. A lot of people may be so eager enough in taking care of their jewelry pieces because they are expensive and they also mean so much to them. I suggest that instead of having it on a prong setting have it done on diamond bezels.
A lot of people have attested that bezel setting is much safer way of taking care of your precious stones because they secure your stones more safely than the prong setting. Plus, bezel setting not only secures the gems in place they also protect them from friction and dust and dirt.
Bezel setting is done by a jewelller where a small plate of metal is used. The metal is then measured to the gems circumference. And a certain measurement is also given to cover the top gem, where the gemstones can still be visible but the height of the metal above protects the surface of the gem from friction damage and other external forces.
The metal rim encircles the sides of the diamonds, just enough to make fit the gem and secures it in place.
There are two types of bezel setting; one is the full bezel setting where a full metal rim enclosed the diamonds and partial bezel setting is only covers a part of the diamonds.
In this way your diamonds are protected and much secure. This provides you’re a diamonds a more low profile because you do not expose the entire body of the diamond, only the top.
Bezel setting can protect the sides of your diamonds and can cover the chips of your precious gem stones.
With prong setting, it is more likely that your jewelry can get caught with clothing and other uneven surfaces. With bezel setting, you do not to worry about this because the metal rim is smooth and do not caught on clothes or other uneven surfaces.
A lot of people also liked diamond bezel setting because they can upgrade their traditional piece of jewelry making them more elegant and have that seam lined style.
Like any other piece of jewelry you also have to take care of your diamond bezels. You have to wash them or wipe them with a clean cotton cloth. And if you notice that certain diamonds have loosened, it is best that you bring them to a jeweler so you prevent lost diamonds which could affect the look and appearance of your jewelry piece. Don’t store all your diamond pieces in one storage. You have to separate them because they tend to scratch each others surface which could do a lot of damage.
You should take care of your precious gems because they are expensive so you have to initiate ways to protect them and preserve them, their elegance and luster for as long as you can with diamond bezel setting.
