 		Does anyone have examples of channel bead set or channel pave set? (are they one in the same?)
 
If so, could you please, please post them. I really want the look of pave but the security of channel set. I´m assuming that channel bead set or channel pave set is much more secure than just bead set/pave set?

Many Thanks

 		I've never heard the team "channel pave set" before.  Do they mean beadset?  Here is a picture of a beadset band.  It has a metal edge like a channel set band, which gives it some protection from knocking out stones, but the stones are actually set with tiny prongs.

 		This is a picture of a traditional channel set band where the stones are set using the channel and a series of notches within the edge.

 		I had the same exact concerns. Would love to know if anyone could give some feedback on the security and images of a closeup of a channel bead set....and what is it's difference with a pave set?

 		Also, isn't this a pave setting, why does the description on Pearlman's call this a channel setting? Does pave within a channel mean the same thing as a bead channel setting?

Your picture shows bead-set with a milgrain edge. Milgrain is where the channel edge has tiny bobbles instead of being straight.
