Elegance and Uniqueness Comprise Tension Rings

It is their smooth, sleek lines and natural elegance that accentuates the beauty of tension rings. The tension settings have become the ultimate in contemporary engagement ring design. In tension rings, the perfection and beauty of the diamond or any other gemstone is highlighted rather than adding any distracting embellishments. Tension settings have become an instant classic in the contemporary ring designs owing to its minimal and elegant look.

In a tension ring setting, the diamond or other gemstone appear to be floating or suspended in the mid air within the band of the ring itself. This setting uses specially treated metals that have an inherent springiness nature to hold the ring in place. The entire band of the ring acts as two large prongs to hold the stone in place with small carved niches that fit around the stone’s girdle. The stone is help securely in place in a unique floating illusion with great tensile strength. Each tension ring is individually made to the specific dimensions of your diamond in order to keep it safe and secure in the setting.

Initially couples were having concern over the safety of the stone as it is held in place through two points of contact rather than the typical four or six prongs settings. This concern is however quite contrary. Tension rings can be considered as one among the safest pieces of jewelry available. Since the band metal is stronger than that used for prongs and more of the metal is in contact with the stone than through narrow prongs, the stone in a tension setting is held more securely than a traditional ring setting. Thus the stone achieves a stronger and tighter fit. At Novori Jewelry, the quality and craftsmanship is backed up with the lifetime warranty we offer for all engagement rings.

White gold is the most common metal used for tension rings due to its natural strength and durability. At Novori Jewelry there are designs in white gold, yellow gold and platinum. Couples even have the choice of selecting multi tone rings typically with an inset of a contrasting metal. We offer exquisite designs of tension rings in dual metal setting combining white and yellow gold.
