Tension Setting
 Tension setting is a unique and beautiful method of setting a diamond into a ring or piece of precious jewelry. In tension-set rings, the diamond is essentially "squeezed" at the girdle into a small groove cut into the tension mounting. The mountings are manufacturing using precious metals that are especially hardened to grip the diamond without the necessity of prongs. The settings are very secure, however it is important to fully insure any high-value diamond purchase against loss.
