For this reason, many clients love the look achieved with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/uk\/education\/tiffany-setting-world-famous-ring-styles\">Tiffany-style rings<\/a> with simple claws reaching out with a mesmerizing brilliant-cut diamond. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other buyers choose a tall setting out of necessity. To explain, many coloured gemstones are cut very deeply\u2014far deeper than most diamonds. As a result, a tall setting allows enough depth for the underside of the gemstone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"753\" src=\"https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Tall-setting-solitaire-diamond-ring.jpg\" alt=\"High engagement ring with setting lifted away from the band\" class=\"wp-image-14904\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Tall-setting-solitaire-diamond-ring.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Tall-setting-solitaire-diamond-ring-300x266.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Tall-setting-solitaire-diamond-ring-768x680.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Solitaire design photographed from the Serendipity Diamonds showroom collection (enquire for details)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-the-average-height-for-an-engagement-ring-setting\">What is the average height for an engagement ring setting?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The average height of an engagement ring setting is approximately 5.5mm. This measurement is taken from where the setting touches the finger\u2014measured to the tip of the claw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Larger diamonds have more depth and require taller settings. An increase in the carat weight of any diamond results in an increase in both diameter and depth for the diamond. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/uk\/education\/diamond-size-chart\">Refer to any diamond size chart<\/a> to see the relationship between carat weight and physical size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-prominent-tiffany-ring-styles\">Prominent Tiffany Ring Styles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many ring styles strike an excellent balance between design and height. A perfect example has to be the Tiffany-inspired design shown below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our video shows the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/uk\/product\/1-carat-lab-grown-solitaire-diamond-engagement-ring\">Kensington ring design<\/a>\u2014elegant and simply styled with an iconic 4-claw Tiffany style setting.

High settings benefit from greater visibility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, high settings can be vulnerable to damage. For this reason, for this reason, we recommend striking a balance between height and practicality so that your ring is suitable for daily wear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-do-tall-engagement-rings-require-a-deep-wedding-ring\">Do tall engagement rings require a deep wedding ring?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most high ring settings allow a straight band to sit flush with the engagement ring. In contrast, other ring styles demand a shaped wedding ring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also refer to wedding-ring-friendly designs as &#8216;Wedfit&#8217;. Lifting the setting onto the band allows a regular straight wedding ring to sit neatly alongside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"837\" src=\"https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Higher-tiffany-setting-with-matching-wedding-ring.jpg\" alt=\"Taller wedding ring friendly setting for an engagement ring with matching wedding band\" class=\"wp-image-14909\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Higher-tiffany-setting-with-matching-wedding-ring.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Higher-tiffany-setting-with-matching-wedding-ring-300x295.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Higher-tiffany-setting-with-matching-wedding-ring-768x756.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Higher-tiffany-setting-with-matching-wedding-ring-55x55.jpg 55w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-taller-twist-engagement-rings\">Taller twist engagement rings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For a variation to the tall solitaire, try the Juliana design.
