Side Stone Rings
Side stones and pavé diamonds frame the center stone and cascade brilliance down the band, creating extraordinary sparkle from every angle.
The Setting
Accented Brilliance,
Refined by Design
Side stone rings place additional diamonds along the shank on either side of the center stone, adding sparkle, depth, and visual width. The result is a ring with more presence on the hand without increasing the center stone size.
At Nathan Alan Jewelers, side stones are sourced to the same ideal-cut standard as our center stones. Every diamond in the setting earns its place, chosen for how it complements the center, not simply to fill a mounting.
Ring Details
“Side stones transform a beautiful diamond into something breathtaking, adding depth, dimension, and a brilliance that extends across the entire ring.” Nathan Alan Jewelers · Newport Beach
Continuous Sparkle
Side stones extend the diamond presence across the full visible face of the ring. The center stone leads, but the side stones ensure every angle has something to offer.
Ideal-Cut Accent Stones
Most jewelers use lower cut grades for accent diamonds. Nathan Alan sources ideal-cut stones throughout, so the setting is as brilliant as the stone it holds.
Many Varieties
Side stone rings include pave shanks, channel-set baguettes, tapered designs, and step-cut sides. Each creates a distinct look worth exploring in person.
