Understanding This Piece
About 10K White Gold
10K white gold blends 41.7% pure gold with palladium, silver, and zinc, then plates the surface with rhodium for a brilliant cool-white finish. The higher alloy content makes it the most affordable and hardest-wearing white gold available — ideal for daily-wear bands. The rhodium plating wears down over 12–24 months of constant wear and needs replating to restore the bright white; we include this service free for life on every 10K white gold piece purchased from our Atlanta location.
About Side-Stone Settings
Side-stone settings add accent diamonds along the shoulders of the ring next to the center stone — typically channel-set, pavé, or shared-prong rounds. The accent stones bring additional sparkle and dimension without dominating the center diamond. Side-stone construction is one of the most popular non-solitaire engagement-ring categories and works well across nearly every center-stone shape.
