Setting Gemstones Instructions  

Stone Settings Techniques

Traditionally, the task of setting gemstones is done by a master setter. As metalsmith you can become familiar with the setting techniques and with practice you will become more confident to do some of your own setting. This means you can make the jewelry piece from start to completion on your own bench. At the very least gem setting instructions teach you how to prepare gem seating so that your setter can deliver top quality setting.
