Diamond flush settings are a very subtle way to display the diamond, because the diamond is set down in the metal level with the surface of the ring. The gems are sunk far enough into the ring that only the face of the diamond shows. Sometimes they are slightly raised so that a little more of the diamond can be seen. Sometimes flush settings are called gypsy settings.

Most women prefer to have their diamond stand out, so the flush settings would not be their first thought. But, there are many advantages to using a flush diamond setting. They appeal to women who like tiny sparkles rather than one big glitter.

One of the main advantages to using flush settings is that they protect the diamond. If you know that your ring will be put through harsh conditions because you used your hands throughout the day, a flush setting is ideal to keep the diamonds safe. Additionally, flush settings can be used to display low-quality diamonds, this type of setting does well to hide flaws and imperfections in the gems.

Small flush settings are also popular in men’s rings, because they can offer a subtle bit of glitz without looking too feminine.
