 | What is Pave?: Pave is a technique used to make jewelry. It takes small stones (usually diamonds) and bunches the stones very close together. The idea is to put the stones as close together as possible so the finished product looks as though its paved. When using a Pave setting, no metal can be seen. The stones in this setting are placed into very small holes (drilled in the metal before hand) that sit almost flush with the surface of the jewelry. The stones are secured by the surrounding metal. The actual word Pave comes from the French word pavement. |

 | Price: Micro Pave is priced very reasonably and is affordable to all jewelry fashionistas. |

| 14K Gold: The value of gold is measured according to its purity and its purity is measured in karats (Kt). Karats measure how much pure gold is in each piece. For Example, 24 karats is considered 100% gold and 10 karats contains only 41.7% gold. 14 karat = 58.5% gold. |

| Love to Know says this about micro pave engagement rings: "Micro pave settings are even more intricate, and use the smallest possible diamonds to achieve a uniform glitter on the ring's surface." "Because the diamonds or diamond chips used in micro pave are so small, the ring's surface is smoother than with larger pave settings." "Smaller stones can fit together more closely, eliminating even more metal from showing through the diamond encrustation." |
