Pave engagement rings are another standout style this season. Tiny diamonds are set closely together along the band, creating a continuous shimmer that catches the light from every angle. At James & Sons, our pave bands combine delicate craftsmanship with dazzling sparkle, offering both classic and modern designs. This style is perfect for those who want maximum brilliance and a touch of glamour without overwhelming the center stone.
