A prong setting, also called a claw setting, is a jewelry setting that holds a gemstone in place with tiny tines or bits of metal called claws or prongs. Claw settings typically have four to six prongs holding the gemstone in place, usually just above the girdle. The claw setting allows light to enter and pass through the exposed part of the stone, making it a good choice when you want to maximize brilliance.
