What Is a Bezel Engagement Ring?
A bezel engagement ring features a diamond that is surrounded by a thin metal rim that holds the stone securely in place. Instead of prongs holding the diamond, the metal edge wraps partially or fully around the stone. This design creates a sleek, modern look while providing excellent protection for the diamond.
