A Solitaire Diamond is a single diamond set alone as
the sole ornament for a piece of jewellery, usually a
finger ring or a pendant. The Solitaire Diamond became
popular from the year 1880 when high-quality stones became
more available, and is still favoured, especially for
an engagement ring; a finger ring set with such a stone.
The setting is distinctive so as to showcase the stone
and make it visibly clear. Since there are no other stones
studded on the surface of the ring, the solitaire diamond
gets all the attention of the onlookers. Another feature
of the Solitaire Diamond is that since the Diamond is
being set alone, it gleams with maximum brilliance. Thus
the Diamond dominates over the jewellery, may it be a
ring or a pendant. A wide variety of cuts can be used
depending upon the Diamond’s properties and both
plain and fancy Diamonds can be displayed in a solitaire
setting.
The size is of no matter since Solitaire Diamonds when
set in a proper way appear comparatively larger. Classically,
a solitaire Diamond is large and the stone may appear
totally alone or it may be surrounded with smaller stones.
As far as the shape of Solitaire Diamond is concerned,
round is the most popular. Other shapes like emerald,
pear and marquise are also preferred and can appear larger
on rings or pendants or even earrings. Solitaires are
generally seen with prong settings because prongs push
up the diamond above the surface of the ring making the
stone stand alone and apart from any other embellishment
on the ring. The setting is often designed to be as unobtrusive
as possible, so that the stone can be clearly seen. The
Diamond must be as flawless as possible with few to no
inclusions and a clear and bright appearance because the
solitaire setting leaves little room for error. Since
there is only one diamond to be purchased, the overall
cost of the ornament remains affordable, thereby making
solitaire Diamond jewellery the most popular and sought
after. Solitaire Diamond thus makes a timeless piece of
jewellery that never goes out of style.
The solitaire diamond is a classic. It has been popular
for many years past and is sure to remain a favorite for
many years to come. The solitaire diamond ring is quite
popular as a wedding ring, but it can be worn for other
reasons as well, including as a promise ring or purity
ring. We are leading suppliers and exporters of various
