What Is a Bezel Setting?
A bezel setting surrounds the centre diamond with a smooth metal rim, offering a minimalist and contemporary look while securely holding the stone in place.
Modern and Practical Elegance
Unlike claw or prong settings, bezel rings provide full protection around the diamond’s edge. They’re perfect for those with an active lifestyle or those who prefer clean lines and understated luxury.
Sleek Finish and Streamlined Style
Bezel settings sit close to the finger, giving the ring a low-profile silhouette. They are ideal for modern brides or those seeking a ring that blends design and durability.
Benefits of Bezel Set Engagement Rings
Bezel settings are more than just stylish — they’re smart.
Maximum Security
The full metal frame protects your diamond from daily wear and tear, making bezel rings a top choice for long-term durability.
The history of bezel-set engagement rings
The bezel setting is one of the oldest known methods of securing gemstones, dating back to ancient civilisations such as the Egyptians and Greeks. Early jewellers used it to protect softer stones by encasing them in metal rims. This technique offered both durability and elegance, making it ideal for everyday wear. Over centuries, the bezel evolved from a purely functional setting to a stylish, minimalist choice. Today, it’s celebrated for its clean lines, modern aesthetic, and secure hold — especially in bespoke engagement rings.

What is a bezel set engagement ring?
A bezel setting encircles the diamond (or gemstone) with a thin metal rim, holding it securely in place. It offers a sleek, modern aesthetic and excellent protection for the stone.
Are bezel settings secure for everyday wear?
Yes — bezel settings are among the most secure options available. The metal frame protects the diamond from knocks and chips, making it ideal for those with an active lifestyle.
Do bezel settings make the diamond look smaller?
Bezel settings can slightly reduce the visible surface area of the diamond compared to prong settings, but they create a clean, smooth outline that often enhances the stone’s shape and brilliance.
Can bezel settings be made for any diamond shape?
Absolutely. At Mouza, we design bezel settings for round, oval, emerald, pear, marquise and more. Each one is custom-crafted to suit the shape and proportions of your chosen stone.
Are bezel set rings difficult to clean?
Not at all. While dirt can collect beneath the stone over time, regular cleaning and occasional professional care will keep your ring sparkling. We offer lifetime cleaning for all Mouza rings.
Can I customise a bezel set engagement ring?
Yes. Mouza specialises in bespoke bezel settings, allowing you to personalise every detail — from the metal choice to the diamond cut and side accents.
Is a bezel setting more expensive than a prong setting?
Bezel settings may involve slightly more craftsmanship due to the precision required, but the difference is minimal. Many clients find the added security and sleek style well worth it.
