What this setting called?

[GoBlue55]

What is the type of setting where the band is offset on either side of the center stone called? There is an example from Shane Co below. If you can point me to other examples it would be appreciated.

I don''t know but is Shane Co a big chain or in a particular region of the country? Because I keep reading posts about them and they don''t have them where I live.

 

[GoBlue55]

they are a national chain.

Goblue I''m not sure there''s a specific name for that setting, it looks like it''s prong set to me with a low set halo maybe. But more often than not when you see that shape setting the ring is tension set. I''ve attached a picture as an example.

I''ve heard this style referred to by some companies as a bypass.
