pavé
Closely set gems
Pavé refers to a setting style in jewelry where small gemstones are placed closely together, held by tiny prongs or beads of metal, creating a surface that appears paved with stones: a pavé diamond band.
The effect resembles cobblestones—the word comes from French for paved.
Pavé can also describe the cobblestone streets themselves, especially in European contexts.
