Amazon.com Product Description
In this graceful setting, four beautifully matched round diamonds sparkle in the channel setting. The setting starts out wider where it meets the center diamond, then tapers for a subtle, delicate effect. Similarly, the diamonds closest to the center stone are slightly larger than the outer diamonds. The diamonds show considerable fire in the channel and are held securely with smooth, highly polished metal. This type of setting is great to wear everyday, as there are no prongs or sharp edges holding the accent diamonds. The brilliant diamonds are capped off by a slightly raised double bar design, then the ridged band that encircles the finger tapers away. The total effect is elegant, with the sparkle enhancing, but not overpowering the center diamond. The diamonds in the setting are a minimum of I in color, I1 in clarity. Since the diamonds are in the near-colorless range, they should appear beautifully white in the setting. This color should blend well with the color of the center diamond, particularly diamonds with an F to J color grade. A center diamond with a D or E color grade may show a slight color difference to the I color diamonds in this setting, but it should not be very noticeable to the casual observer. The I1 clarity grade means that it might be possible to see the internal inclusions in the diamonds with the unaided eye, but it is unlikely that the inclusions would be seen with the diamonds mounted in the setting. The diamonds are well cut, with proportions and polish designed to capture the light and sparkle beautifully in the setting. The setting is made of 14 karat white gold, which is a popular and flattering precious metal for a diamond ring. 14k white gold has a wonderful white color that complements the clear brilliance of diamonds, and is a great value. 14k gold is 58.3% pure 24 karat gold, with the remaining percentage usually being alloy metals of silver, copper, nickel, zinc and palladium. The alloys add strength to the pure gold, which would be too soft for everyday wear on its own. White gold is often plated with rhodium, a metal in the platinum group, to enhance its white color. 14k white gold is not as white in color as platinum, as it is yellow gold made white through alloys. Some people prefer this warmer white over platinum?s grayer white. 14k white gold is quite durable for everyday wear. As a precious metal, it will naturally patina, or scratch lightly on the surface, but the original bright polished luster can be maintained through an occasional cleaning and polishing.
