pave

The individual small diamonds in a pavé diamond ring remember of tiny paving stones, hence the name.
Les petits diamants d’une bague en diamant pavé rappellent justement de petits pavés, d’où le nom.
Moreover, a pave setting, where smaller stones are set around a central stone in a sort of checkerboard pattern or incorporated in the surface of the ring itself, is gaining in popularity.
En outre, un sertissage pavé, où les petites pierres sont disposées autour d'une pierre centrale dans une sorte de damier ou incorporées dans la surface de l'anneau lui-même, gagne en popularité.
This traditional setting is of course not your only option for engagement rings; there are other possibilities for solitaire rings and even completely different ring designs as well such as a pave setting for example.
Ce sertissage traditionnel n’est bien sûr pas la seule option pour les bagues de fiançailles. Il existe d'autres possibilités pour les bagues solitaires et même des designs complètement différents comme par exemple un sertissage pavé.
