Stone Setting

While we design jewelry we can choose from many methods of stone setting.

Some stone setting is intended to raise and dramatize a single stone, while others types offer clusters of gems to be viewed as a group.

In other cases the setting work is intended to protect a fragile gem from excessive wear.

Without the art of stone setting, the dramatic gemstones featured in most fine jewelry would be forlorn.

The true goal is to present the gemstone in a way that most flatters it, without dramatizing the method in which it is secured.

We tend to take it for granted that all of the wonderful twinkling sparklers in our jewelry magically stay in position.

We also use a Stereo microscope for the fine work.
