Is a bezel setting good for everyday wear?

Yes. The metal rim around the stone removes prongs that snag, so it suits daily wear and active hands. It also holds the diamond more securely than a thin prong setting.

How does an emerald cut look next to a round brilliant?

An emerald cut is a step cut with long, mirror-like flashes rather than the scattered sparkle of a round brilliant. It looks larger for its carat weight and shows clarity more openly.

Is a lab grown diamond a real diamond?

Yes. It has the same carbon structure and hardness as a mined diamond. It is grown in a lab rather than dug from the ground.

Will a wedding band sit flush against it?

A bezel solitaire usually sits low, so a straight band can sit close, but a curved band may fit better. Try the pair together before committing.

What should I check on the stone?

Ask for the diamond report and check clarity, since emerald cuts reveal inclusions more than brilliant cuts. Confirm the carat weight and the metal type of the band.
