A Bezel setting is a design where the center stone is securely encased in a rim of metal, surrounding it either partially or entirely. This setting is known for its sleek, modern appearance and excellent durability, as it protects the edges of the gemstone from chipping or damage.

Bezel settings come in two styles: full bezel, where the metal encircles the stone completely, and half bezel, where the metal partially frames the stone, leaving sections open for added light and brilliance. These settings are ideal for those seeking a clean, contemporary look with enhanced security for their gemstone.

Yes! Half Bezel settings are designed to be highly secure for everyday wear while maintaining a modern and elegant look. In a Half Bezel setting, the metal partially encircles the gemstone, holding it firmly in place along its sides. This design protects the edges of the stone from chipping or damage during daily activities, making it a durable and reliable choice for those with active lifestyles.

Compared to prong settings, half bezels offer more stability as the metal rim shields the stone from potential impacts or accidental knocks. Additionally, the smooth edges of the setting reduce the likelihood of snagging on clothing or other items, adding to its practicality for everyday use.

North-South and East-West refer to the orientation of the gemstone within the half bezel setting.

• North-South Setting: The gemstone is positioned vertically, with its longer axis running from top to bottom. This traditional orientation is often used to create an elongated, classic appearance that flatters the finger.
• East-West Setting: The gemstone is set horizontally, with its longer axis running side to side. This modern and unconventional style adds a unique and contemporary twist to the design.

Both orientations work beautifully in half bezel settings and can be customized to suit your personal style.
