Question 1

What is a pavé wedding band?

Accepted Answer

A pavé wedding band is a ring lined with many tiny diamonds set close together, each held by small metal beads called pavé. The beads almost disappear, so the top of the band looks like a continuous sheet of sparkle. Ours use certified lab grown diamonds in gold or platinum.

Question 2

Micro pavé or French pavé?

Accepted Answer

Micro pavé uses even tinier diamonds set in a smooth, seamless sheet of light across the band. French pavé cuts small V-shaped grooves under the stones, so each one catches more light and looks brighter. Both are true pavé — the difference is the setting detail, not the sparkle style.

Question 3

Do the diamonds fall out of a pavé band?

Accepted Answer

Each small diamond sits in its own tiny beads of metal that grip it in place, so a well-made pavé band is secure for everyday wear. Like any diamond jewelry, avoid hard knocks and have the setting checked now and then, and the stones stay tight for years.

Question 4

Can you resize a pavé wedding band?

Accepted Answer

A pavé band has diamonds running partway or all the way around, so there is little plain metal to cut and rejoin. That makes it harder to resize than a plain band. Measure the finger carefully before you order, or ask our gemologists to help you get the size right.

Question 5

What engagement ring does a pavé band pair with?

Accepted Answer

A pavé wedding band matches a pavé engagement ring most naturally, since the tiny diamonds echo each other. It also suits a solitaire or halo ring, adding sparkle beside a plain band. See our pavé engagement rings to match the two.

Question 6

How much is a pavé wedding band?

Accepted Answer

The price of a pavé wedding band depends most on the number of small diamonds and your metal choice, so it costs more than a plain band of the same width. Because ours use lab grown diamonds, you get more sparkle for your budget. Prices change daily, so we show today's live prices below.

Question 7

Which metal can I choose?

Accepted Answer

Every pavé band comes in 14K or 18K gold — white, yellow or rose — or in platinum. White gold and platinum hide the tiny metal beads best and keep the diamonds looking bright. Yellow and rose gold give a warmer look. Platinum is the most durable for daily wear.
