Synopsis

This encyclopedic overview gives jewelry makers an in-depth, technical guide to stone setting.

Gemstone Settings features an extensive summary of stone-setting and techniques for creating beautiful gemstone jewelry, from basic bezels and prongs to pave, carre, clusters, and numerous others - including cold joins, precious metal clay, settings for fragile stones, and settings that allow the stones to move.

You'll also discover detailed information, photos, and illustrations about stones and metals - including their suitability, what makes a design wearable and durable, and in-depth details on pre-made versus handmade settings.

With step-by-step instructions, learn how to set your most beloved precious, semiprecious, and organic stones with projects that range from elegant diamond masterpieces to earthy pearl or coral everyday favorites.
