Is One Prong Style Better Than The Other?
This is a common question that we receive here at the shop and truthfully, it all boils down to aesthetic preference! Some people like a more metal look with six-prongs, while others prefer the opposite and let the center stone have its moment. Not only that, the way prongs are set can make the stone "have a different appearance". Six-prongs tend to make stones appear more rounded and smaller, and four prongs make a stone appear more square and larger.
While technically your stone will have some extra security with six-prongs, if both prong styles are worn mindfully, your ring will be just fine!
Ring Styles
Now let’s get to the fun stuff - the rings! Here are some of our classic rings that don each prong style.
Skinny Webster
A classic round cut ring with six-prongs! Our Skinny Webster engagement ring is a sweet and traditional piece that features six-prongs around her round cut moissanite center stone. This ring style will require a curvy band due to her basket shape.

Skinny Lexus
Skinny Lexus is an oval solitaire stunner that also features six-prongs. In a way, the six-prong look makes the stone look like it has a totally different shape which kind of brings an interesting look to the piece. Unique right?!

Chelsea
A four-prong ring set in a unique fashion! Chelsea is a modern take on the classic four-prong look with her prongs set like a kite around the moissanite center stone. The diamonds on the band give the ring the sparkly finishing touch that it needs to complete the piece!
