✨ What Is a Pave Band?

The French word for "paved" is the source of the word "pave," which is pronounced "pah-vay." A pave band is paved with small, closely-set diamonds held in place by delicate prongs or metal beads, much like a cobblestone street. The outcome? a smooth sheen that gives the appearance of constant glimmer.

4. Pave with a scalloped surface
