Personalise Your Eternity Wedding Band at Jose Jewellery
Once you’ve selected your band style, you can choose your setting. Each technique determines how the gemstones capture and reflect light. Whether you prefer a moissanite full eternity ring or a lab grown diamond set, we offer several expert finishes.
Channel Setting: Stones are set deep into the metal and protected on both sides. This is ideal for active brides who need a snag-free ring.
Claw Setting: Using small prongs to hold the stones, a claw set allows for maximum light exposure and ‘pop’.
Pave Setting: For a surface that looks ‘paved’ in diamonds, pave uses tiny metal beads to hold stones closely together.
Flush Setting: Also known as gypsy or burnish settings, stones are embedded into the metal so that the tip sits level with the surface for an ultra-low profile.
Adorn your hand in brilliance. At Jose Jewellery, we believe your ring should be a reflection of your love story. Visit our Benoni Design Studio to explore our full collection or contact us to create a bespoke piece. Find the sparkle that speaks to your heart.
