Stuller Trend Report — Falling for These Design Styles in Findings
From accented shanks to sleek bezels and hidden halos, discover the styles customers want now.
Style trends drive customer demand, and findings are the building blocks that make these looks possible. That’s why the Stuller Trend Report keeps a constant pulse on what’s shaping the jewelry world. From shanks to ring and earring settings, necklace centers, and dangles, these essential elements give every piece its structure, personality, and polish.
This fall, three design styles are stealing the spotlight: accented shanks that amplify sparkle and individuality, sleek bezel settings that balance modern edge with timeless appeal, and hidden halos that shimmer with unexpected brilliance. Our newest findings blend classic craftsmanship with on-trend design — giving you everything you need to create jewelry your customers can’t resist.
Accented Shanks — Style That Speaks Volumes
When it comes to modern bridal and fashion rings, every detail matters — and the accented shank is definitely commanding attention. These designs bring extra sparkle, dimension, and personality to classic silhouettes, transforming the band into a statement all on its own.
Whether you’re drawn to delicate diamond details or bold side-stone patterns, accented shanks let you play with contrast, symmetry, and light. Mix and match them with your favorite settings to create something fresh and one of a kind.
*Creative Tip: Accented shanks shine even brighter when paired with hidden-halo or bezel-set centers for a look that’s balanced and bold.
Bezel Settings — Sleek, Secure, and So On-Trend
Bezel settings are making a major comeback as one of the most versatile styles in jewelry design. Loved for their sleek silhouette and secure hold, bezels offer a clean, contemporary look while protecting the stone — perfect for everyday wear.
These findings are used to create rings, pendants, and earrings alike, making them an ideal choice for jewelers seeking both form and function. With bezel findings, you can create designs that feel fresh yet classic — pieces that capture modern minimalism without losing their sense of luxury.
*Creative Tip: Think beyond solitaires — bezel settings elevate everything from stackable rings to statement studs.
Hidden-Halo Styles — A Sparkle Meant to Surprise
There’s something irresistible about a little hidden brilliance. Hidden halo-style settings deliver that — a delicate ring of diamonds tucked beneath the center stone, catching the light in ways that surprise and delight.
This subtle yet striking detail adds depth and dimension to both classic and contemporary designs. Hidden halos pair beautifully with solitaires or accented shanks, offering a new layer of sophistication without overpowering the main stone.
From earrings to engagement rings, this trend continues to charm designers and customers alike — proof that sometimes the most captivating beauty is the one you don’t see at first glance.
Creative Tip: Think beyond the ring — hidden halos in earrings and pendants add secret sparkle that turns ordinary pieces into conversation starters.
Design Without Limits
Every great design begins with a strong foundation — and that foundation starts with findings. As styles evolve and customers seek pieces that feel both meaningful and modern, these essential components empower you to create without limits.
From the smallest detail to the final polish, Stuller’s findings bring every trend to life with quality you can trust and craftsmanship you can see. Explore the newest additions to our assortment and discover how today’s trends can inspire tomorrow’s heirlooms.
