Among the myriad options available, shared prong wedding bands stand out for their elegance and remarkable craftsmanship. Not to mention their major focus on sparkle. So, let's dive into the side-by-side subject here, folks — the intricacies of shared prong wedding bands, exploring their different types, functionalities, diamond shapes, and styles to see if they're right for you!
Shared prong bands sparkle with elegance, symbolizing eternal love as seen with our, Megastellar Wedding Band.
First of All: What is a Shared Prong Wedding Band?
Well, you've probably heard of a prong set diamond band, right? In a standard prong setting, each diamond is secured in place on your finger by little bits of gold or platinum called prongs, that start below the diamond's girdle, and are pushed over the top edge to hold it tight. Now, that's all fine and dandy when we're talking about a single center stone on your engagement ring. But when you have a diamond ring with a bunch of diamonds or gemstones on it, all that metal can get a bit overwhelming and stand in the way of the stones really sparkling bright.
Shared prong wedding bands, also known as shared claw or u-prong bands, are designed to hold multiple diamonds securely in place while maximizing their brilliance and minimizing their metal. Unlike traditional prong-set bands, where each diamond is held by separate prongs, shared prong bands feature prongs that secure two adjacent diamonds simultaneously. This shared prong design creates a seamless, continuous flow of diamonds, enhancing both the sparkle of the stones and the overall aesthetic appeal of the band.

Types of Shared Prong Wedding Bands
Not to overcomplicate things, but even within this special category of diamond bands, there are a couple of variations. There is the single shared prong band, which features a single prong securing two adjacent diamonds, allowing for minimal metal visibility and maximum diamond exposure. And, there is a double shared prong wedding band, which features two prongs securing each pair of adjacent diamonds, providing extra security and stability and just a little bit more metal, ideal for larger stones. Choosing the band you like comes down to style, security and personal preference. Let's look at a few!
Round Diamond Wedding Bands
By far the most popular choice for diamond shapes in the bridal world, round brilliant cut diamonds are frequently found in shared prong settings. They are very sparkly and give off a ton of light, crafted to be the most brilliant diamond available. For a super minimalist take, there's a single shared prong wedding band with round diamonds. This shared prong setting allows the diamonds to really sparkle and the delicate details of the prongs are nearly invisible. Note that this is very minimal metal, so if you have a super active lifestyle, this may not be the right choice for you. Not to worry, a double shared prong setting offers a bit more security for wear with barely a difference in the style.

Oval Shared Prong Wedding Bands
If you're looking for a wedding band with a more unique diamond shape, many of them also work well in shared prong wedding bands. We particularly love the oval diamond in this style of setting, as its elongated shape allows even more light and more sparkle to come through in the ring. Clients often choose their diamond shape based on personal preference and pricing, as round diamonds are usually more expensive than other shapes.
A petite, ring you can easily stack with an engagement ring or other diamond band, this shared prong wedding band with oval diamonds is an excellent choice. You can choose from yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, or platinum to match your ring stack or engagement ring setting, or mix and match for something that stands out.
A five-stone ring with shared prong settings is for those of you who want a bit more major sparkle. These standout oval diamonds make a perfect ring for an anniversary gift that lasts a lifetime.

Square Diamond Shared Prong Wedding Bands
If all those curves aren't really your thing, pass 'em by in favor of more square diamond shapes with a shared prong setting. We love the intensity of radiant cut diamonds with their clean lines and brilliant sparkle set in a shared prong wedding band because it really does end up looking like an endless line of sparkle. But for something just a bit softer, rings with old mine cut diamonds (the predecessor to today's modern cushion cut diamonds) strikes a beautiful balance. This five-stone gold shared prong wedding band with old mine cuts is a vintage-lover's dream. Think mid-century clean lines, warmth, and sparkle all in one.

Shared Prong Eternity Bands
Shared prong settings are also an industry favorite for the classic eternity ring. This style, rather than just having diamonds on the top like a classic wedding band, has diamonds that go all the way around your finger in an endless line of brilliance. You can find an eternity band in any ring size, diamond shape, and metal color, along with myriad design choices. When shopping for a wedding band to match your engagement ring, we suggest choosing an eternity ring with the same shape of diamonds as your center stone to make a harmonious appearance.
An Asscher cut shared prong setting eternity ring offers Art Deco inspiration worn on its own or in your ring stack. Its step-cut diamonds are more rainbow flash and subtle sophistication than a brilliant cut gemstone, but in any jewelry, an Asscher cut is simply stunning. There are, of course, also oval diamonds, shared prong setting cushion cut eternity rings, show-stopping emerald cut diamond bands, and the round diamond eternity ring that offers more light and magic that we know what to do with!
Colored Gemstone Wedding Bands
For anyone who needs a little more color in their life, you can also find a shared prong wedding band with colored gemstones such as ruby, sapphire, and emerald, all suitable for everyday wear with your choice of engagement ring. You can also find these in an eternity band. A simple, sophisticated line of oval cut rubies adorns this shared prong wedding band, which is a great way to celebrate your favorite color, your birthstone (or your partner's), or a special meaning to your love story. And don't stop at blue, because sapphires come in all different shades, like the pink sapphires set in this shared prong wedding band for a feminine touch.
Show Off Your Shared Style
Ultimately, whether you prefer the classic allure of round diamonds or the contemporary edge of princess cuts, there's a shared prong band to suit every style and preference. You can purchase one or custom-make one that reflects your romance. Shared prong wedding bands represent the epitome of lasting elegance, seamlessly blending timeless design with modern sophistication. With their impeccable craftsmanship, dazzling diamonds, colorful gemstones, and endless versatility, shared prong wedding bands are sure to become a cherished heirloom that symbolizes everlasting love and commitment for every couple.
