Why Choose a Tension Setting
Most people purchase a tension setting simply because
they like the way they look. There really is no other
setting style that has the unique look of a tension
setting. The special feature of a tension ring is that
it will showcase the diamond in a fuller manner. This
means that you will see more of the diamond you have
purchased and be able to enjoy the diamond more. More
light will be able to enter the diamond and thereby
giving the diamond more sparkle. In a typical prong
setting, the diamond is sometimes covered or hidden
by the setting and prongs. With a tension
setting, the diamond or gemstone floats within
the setting and provides an excellent view of the gemstone.
Once you see a tension ring, there is no other ring
that comes close.
Since a tension setting is somewhat unique, it also appeals
to those who want something just a bit different, and
maybe just a bit more special. A tension
setting always
gets an extra look because most people have not even
seen such a unique and beautiful ring.
Are Tension Settings Safe?
As with any other piece of jewelry, you want to take good
care of the ring and make sure it does not get hit or
abused. Although a tension setting may appear more fragile
than other rings, the opposite is more true. The pressure
mounting on the gemstone keeps the stone safe and secure
within the tension setting. A typical prong setting can
be damaged if just a single prong is bent or snagged and
tension settings protect the diamond or gemstone by having
more metal surrounding the stone. Properly made tension
settings by Novori cannot be pulled apart by hand and
make a secure setting for the center stones.
Sizing a Tension Setting
As you can tell, tension setting
are made to fit a particular gemstone
and for a particular finger size.
The methods normally used to resize
a ring simply cannot be used to
resize a tension ring which makes
sizing a tension ring very difficult
and costly. Always ensure you
have a ring size that has been
measured by a jeweler before ordering
a tension setting. Unfortunately
we are required to charge for
any tension ring resizes. Contact
a jewelry consultant at Novori
Jewelry for details. If you are
planning to order a matching tension
set band, you should considering ordering
them both at the same time to ensure
they have a perfect fit. Otherwise
you will have to send the engagement
ring back to us to ensure an exact
fit. These are just a few things to
consider when buying a tension setting.
Other Names for Tension Settings
Tension settings have a unique style
and are sometimes called

rings, tension set diamonds, floating
