Why Bezel-Set Diamond Necklaces Are Sleek, Secure, and Stunningly Modern

Written by Jason Kirk

A beautiful diamond necklace often holds more meaning than we can actually realize. It can be, of sorts, a reminder of maybe a special day. A little something that is a reflection of your personality, or it can be simply something that you instantly fell in love with as soon as you saw it.

With every year there are new jewelry trends that come and go, but a diamond necklace is that one piece of jewelry that is timeless for a reason. Among every other jewelry style, there is one thing that takes center stage is a bezel-set diamond necklace.

This necklace style is often celebrated for its security; bezel-set jewelry is far more than just a practical choice. It is bold and modern and fuses style, strength, and understated luxury all at once.

So you can be layering delicate chains for a street-style look or wearing it for a solo statement. A bezel-set diamond necklace is the perfect example of sophistication, purpose, and versatility, all while keeping your sparkle safe.

Importance of a Necklace Setting

Before we jump into the nitty-gritty of necklace setting, let’s start with understanding the importance of it. While there may be people out there who focus on the cut, color, clarity, and carat of the diamond when they select a necklace for themselves or a loved one. Necklace setting is something that they often forget and overlook, looking at it as something that is not as important. But here is the thing: setting plays a crucial role in the overall appeal of the necklace.

A necklace setting is something that defines how the light passes and interacts through the diamond. It also defines the security of your diamond. A bezel-set diamond necklace is perfect for those who like to wear their necklace every day. The diamond in this setting sits flush with the metal, making it less likely to snag on hair and clothes.

How to Choose the Right Setting

When you are on the quest to find that one perfect necklace for yourself or your loved one, there are a few things you need to remember. Well, to make this a bit simple, here are a few questions that you might want to start asking yourself first.

How often are you gonna wear it?

If you plan to wear the necklace every day, we suggest that you choose something that is very durable with a low-profile setting. But if you are going to wear the necklace only for special occasions, we suggest that you go for the designs that are more dainty and delicate.

Why Bezel is a Design Game Changer

Here is the thing; a bezel setting isn’t just a metal rim resting around the central diamond. It is a geometry that meets glam in all its glory. The diamond rests very snugly inside the smooth metal frame; it creates a crisp and clean line that lets your diamond shine without any distractions.
