settings question

[jamies]

How do the following settings differ from one another?

-channel setting
-eternity setting
-pave setting
-micropave setting.

I can never tell which is which. I appreciate any clarification that you can provide.

Channel setting: diamonds or gem stones are set in a channel or groove, like an anniversary band.

Eternity ring: the diamonds go all the way around the finger, these can be prong set or channel set.

Pave setting: tiny diamonds, prong or bead set (metal pushed over the stones to hold them in, but not in a formal prong structure) in clusters...

Micro Pave: we've never distinguished the difference, but we assume that it refers to Pave Set diamonds and is simply a different term...
