Why Is The Tiffany Classic Engagement Ring So Popular?
Famous Tiffany Classic Replica by ExcelDiamonds.com
More than any other designer engagement ring setting, the Tiffany setting has captured the hearts of millions of couples searching for the perfect engagement ring for their loose diamond.
What is it about the Tiffany six prong setting that has so captivated the masses, making it the most popular traditional solitaire diamond ring of all time?
There is more than one answer to this question. However, one in particular is the foundation for all others and is the basis of this article.
There is a very core difference in philosophy and objective between the designers of the Tiffany setting and the designers of other fashion jewelry rings like Tacori, Verragio, and Scott Kay.
Many of the manufacturers for designer engagement ring settings have the primary goal of commanding the attention of the viewer to the ring setting itself. They would like the observer to immediately notice not the center diamond but the actual engagement ring and to recognize it as their “branded” setting. To accomplish this goal they will often design ring settings that are extremely “busy” with a lot of filigree and detailing. Many of their creations also feature accent diamonds in different shapes, sizes, and configurations. These jazzed up and gaudy settings effectively overpower the center diamond and draw attention away from the diamond to the ring.
Now this is no big deal in an instance where the center round diamond is of poor to mediocre cut quality and appears dull and lifeless to the viewer. In this type of scenario, the ring setting becomes a positive diversion. However, in the case of an Ideal Cut diamond which has been crafted to achieve a high level of beauty and brilliance, it distracts the viewer from what should be the prize of the entire engagement ring ensemble; a magnificent and sparkling ideal cut diamond. ........(click on the extended entry to read more).........
The designers and creators of the Tiffany Engagement ring setting had the primary objective of promoting the beauty of a well cut diamond in mind. They were intent on creating the ultimate complement to a high quality loose diamond. Theirs, would be the type of ring that would literally push the diamond into the light and highlight its beauty and brilliance for all to see. There would be no distraction from the prize (center diamond) to the ring setting. At the same time, they made every effort to create a setting that would be timeless, understated, and elegant; an engagement ring that would radiate class and not scream fad. Thus, the magnificent Tiffany diamond engagement ring was born.
Here is a direct quote taken from the Tiffany website:
“Over a lifetime a woman may look at her engagement ring one million times or more. Design is important. Every Tiffany setting shoulders the diamond with consummate respect, honor, and grace. The diamond is the Hero. The stone is held properly by the girdle, to maximize light moving in and out. The prongs are thick enough to hold the stone tightly, yet thin enough to be a beautiful design element. Each Tiffany ring has balance and pleasing proportions. Design gimmicks and fads are eschewed.”
At Exceldiamonds we share precisely this philosophy and commitment to promoting and highlighting the beauty and brilliance of our Signature Round and Princess Cut Diamonds.
Our listed Ideal Hearts and Arrows cut Diamonds have been crafted to achieve nothing short of perfection for brilliance, fire, and scintillation.
It was for this reason that we set out to duplicate the beauty of the Tiffany Setting in our own exclusive manufacture to complement our ideal cut loose diamonds.
We found during the course of our extensive research that everybody selling any type of cheap six prong setting was calling it a “Tiffany style setting”. We were truly amazed that these the diamond vendors and companies selling these generic, cookie cutter settings were trying to pass them off as “Tiffany replica rings”. The fact of the matter is that these settings share nothing in common with the actual Tiffany setting. They are usually of poor manufacture, less than pure platinum, lightweight, and don’t look or function like the actual Tiffany. Any person who is even remotely familiar with the beauty and grace of the actual Tiffany ring can immediately recognize the tremendous discrepancies in these cheap fake Tiffany rings.
We decided that we would take a different approach and invest all of our energies into creating a Tiffany replica setting that would be indistinguishable from the actual Tiffany solitaire in every respect. The result of our efforts is our highly acclaimed and exceptionally beautiful Tiffany Style Solitaire Setting.
Our “Tiffany” ring is exactly like the original in every way; from its completely hand rolled manufacture to suit the exact dimensions of your loose diamond, to its heavyweight 950 pure platinum construction, to its classic fluted prongs and elegant taper.
Do some research on the internet by typing in Tiffany replica setting or some permutation thereof, and you will find testimonials from scores of our thrilled customers who say that even the salespeople in the flagship Tiffany stores could not distinguish between our “Tiffany” and the actual Tiffany setting. They offered a complementary polish and ring cleaning of our Tiffany replicas at no charge….and we kid you not!!!
We are very proud of what we have been able to accomplish and invite you to browse our outstanding selection of Diamond engagement rings, as well as our Tiffany style solitaire setting.

After reading all the positive reviews of Barry and Judah's Tiffany style settings, I decided to buy one to go with the (truly splendid) Superbcert I bought.
I knew I was paying more than other similar settings cost, but I wanted to make sure that she was happy with the setting.
When the ring initially arrived, she felt that it wasn't exactly like the Tiffany settings we had seen in the store. After a visit to our local Tiffany's store I was forced to agree.
This situation (which was traumatic for me) was handled almost perfectly by Barry and Judah. They patiently explained the slight differences between different Tiffany rings, listened carefully to our concerns, and manufactured a new setting. She is thrilled with the result.
The extra money I spent on getting Excel's Tiffany setting was absolutely worth it. I strongly recommend it to anyone looking for such a setting whose girlfriend has a familiarity with Tiffany's rings.
