Pave Wedding Bands

What does a pave wedding band look like?

You can figure out what a pave wedding band is by its name. Pave is a method of attaching stones (most often diamonds) to a piece of jewelry, in which it is strewn with them. This dazzling finish acts as an accent in itself or is used to highlight the center stone, creating a radiant “field” around it. The gemstones are located so close to each other that they resemble the laying of pavement stones. The name of the fastening method comes from the French word pavé, which means “pavement” or “to pave.”

Modern jewelers often choose the pavé technique to combine different textures and create subtle patterns, giving the jewelry even more originality.

It is believed that this technique involves placing the stones so close to each other that the gold is not even visible underneath them. However, for the color of white diamonds to completely blend with the color of gold and the prongs for fastening the stones, jewelry using the pavé technique is most often made in a white gold pave wedding band. If the jewelry is made of pink or yellow gold, the places where the white diamonds are attached and the prongs are rhodium-plated. There is also advice for lovers of rose gold pave wedding bands - it is recommended to choose a pavé setting with champagne-colored diamonds or brown gemstones, which together create a unique sparkling effect.

What is a micro pave wedding band?

When creating a micro pave wedding band, the entire surface of the product is thickly covered with precious stones, so that even the smallest parts of the product will be completely studded with shiny stones. Using this technique implies greater precision. The use of a microscope is necessary to mount gemstones into pre-drilled holes. To achieve maximum precision in the production of micro pave wedding bands, a sphere and jewelry tools (pneumatic electronic gravel) are also used. The micro-pave technique allows you to reduce the visible metal surface between the stones to a minimum, creating small grains or grains of such a size that they become almost invisible to the naked eye. After fixing the stones, the surfaces are easily polished and the metal reflects the shine of the stones.

How to properly care for a pave diamond wedding band?

For the most part, caring for a pave diamond wedding band is practically no different from caring for any other precious jewelry. Such jewelry needs regular cleaning and renewal of the rhodium plating if you have a white gold pave wedding band on your finger since the rhodium plating tends to wear off with daily wear. By the way, such tidbits can be cleaned both in ultrasound (diamonds withstand this very well) and at home. You can have an ultrasound done by a professional jeweler, but at home, it will be enough to dip the item in a light soap solution for 15 minutes and then gently rub it with a toothbrush.
