Natural motifs were common during the Edwardian era, with flowers, leaves, vines, insects and celestial motifs often inspiring Edwardian ring elements. Of these, perhaps floral motifs were the most popular. Floral motifs lent an elegance and femininity to ring designs and are popular even today.
Cluster Setting
The trendy cluster setting features a central gemstone or diamond, encircled by pearls or other gemstones to create a cluster. The cluster often ties back to the floral motif, as it can be crafted to look like a flower, as can be seen in this daisy cluster setting. This is an excellent way to have more diamonds at a lower cost, because smaller diamonds always cost less than a single large one.
