The tension ring – a very modern piece of jewelry
In recent years, a new type of ring has emerged in the USA: the tension ring. It is characterized by the fact that the gemstone is held in the ring band without an additional setting . With the tension ring, the ring band does not run continuously, but contains a recess for the gemstone, which is held in place by the high tension of the ring band between the two open ends.
The two precious metals gold and platinum are mainly used for tension rings, as their properties are best suited to the special production of such a piece of jewelry. The tension ring is made by cold forming the selected material, which means that the precious metal is processed in a recrystallized state.
The clamping ring and its advantages
What makes tension rings so special is that the gemstone is clearly visible from the sides and is not covered in any way by a setting. This is particularly beneficial for diamonds , whose fiery, sparkling shine is shown to its full advantage in a tension ring. But the optical properties of colored gemstones are also beautifully highlighted in a tension ring.
To ensure that the gemstone has a secure hold despite its freely floating appearance, notches are made in both ends of the ring band into which it is inserted.
