"Show me designs for 'engagement rings & heads'" => 7 photos

 Here is a library of engagement ring 'claw settings' that are seen daily. As you can see, only a few of them have soldering pegs. 

(I will keep my preferences to myself as I need to stay neutral at all times.)

 These heads are designed for: 1)security, 2)ease of stone setting, and finally 3) appearance. It is quite common to have the jeweller pre-polish the 'head' before soldering it to the main ring.

All of the necessary 'karat and trademarks' must be stamped long before any of the gemstones are set.

  Here is an engagement ring set with many square "Princess-Cut"

diamonds, it also contains bead-set gemstones throughout.

 This 'Full Bezel' protects the Girdle of the stone throughout many years of wear.

 This Full-Bezel arrangement protects the delicate diamonds.

These are the best groupings of diamond ring heads that I've seen.

Safety in this engagement ring rates high in the 'flat-top' design.

 For a simple-looking Marquise ring, here is a two-toned combination.
