The Ultimate Guide To Kite Set Engagement Rings

When it comes to engagement rings, it’s often the little details that make your ring feel truly you. From unexpected stone shapes to whimsical settings, there are so many ways to create a piece that feels one of a kind. One design detail we’ve been absolutely swooning over lately? Kite set engagement rings, also known as compass set rings!

This modern, yet timeless, setting style places the prongs at the north, south, east, and west points of the center stone instead of at the corners. The result? A ring that feels artistic, directional, and effortlessly unique! It’s a subtle twist that completely transforms the look of a stone, giving classic cuts a fresh, fashion-forward feel.

Whether you love minimalist solitaires, art deco-inspired details, or colorful gemstones, kite set engagement rings offer a dreamy way to make your ring stand out. Let’s dive into some of our favorite handcrafted kite set engagement rings here from the shop!
