Wholesale Micro Pavé Diamond Setting

Micro pavé is one of the most detail-sensitive areas of fine jewelry manufacturing.

deBebians provides wholesale micro pavé diamond setting services for jewelry retailers, designers, brands and qualified trade professionals.



  • Precision Matters in Micro Pavé

    With micro pavé, very small differences in spacing, preparation and setting can dramatically affect the finished appearance.

    Diamonds should appear consistent and properly aligned. Beads or prongs should be refined and proportionate. The underlying metal must provide enough structure to safely support the stones.

    The goal is to create a clean field of diamonds while maintaining the integrity of the jewelry.

  • Preparation Before Setting

    Excellent pavé work starts before a diamond is set.

    The CAD, casting and preparation of the mounting all influence what the setter is ultimately able to achieve.

    Hole placement, stone spacing, metal thickness and access to the setting area should be considered during the design and manufacturing process.

    When deBebians handles the complete project, we can coordinate these stages so the mounting is designed and prepared with the setting process in mind.

Micro Pavé Applications

Micro pavé can be incorporated into many types of jewelry, including:

  • Engagement rings
  • Halo designs
  • Hidden halos
  • Wedding bands
  • Eternity bands
  • Pendants
  • Earrings
  • Signet rings
  • Custom jewelry
  • Detailed diamond accents
The appropriate setting style will depend on the design, stone size, metal and intended use of the piece.

  • Fine Setting Requires the Right Balance

    It can be tempting to make every visible section of metal as small as possible in order to expose more diamond.

    However, jewelry still needs enough metal to securely hold the stones and withstand normal wear.

    Our team evaluates both appearance and durability when reviewing pavé designs.

    If we believe an area should be strengthened or redesigned before setting, we would rather address it during CAD or manufacturing than discover the problem after the jewelry has already been produced.

  • For Custom Pieces and Wholesale Production

    We work with businesses needing a single high-end pavé project as well as companies requiring recurring manufacturing and setting support.

    For clients developing repeatable designs, consistency in CAD, stone specifications, preparation and setting can be particularly important.

    deBebians can assist with the individual setting stage or manage additional portions of the manufacturing process.

Complete Fine Jewelry Manufacturing Support

In addition to micro pavé, our wholesale services include CAD development, custom jewelry manufacturing, stone sourcing, center stone setting, engraving, polishing and quality control.

This allows a project to move from an initial design into finished jewelry through one manufacturing relationship when appropriate.
