A complete and practical guide to using precious and semi-precious
stones in any metal - from traditional settings to contemporary
looks. This is a detailed, technical guide to stone-setting for
jewellers and jewellery students. It explores traditional, modern
and experimental approaches to stone-setting, from the purely
functional to design-led solutions for securing stones. This book
takes you through the entire process of setting stones from
choosing a suitable stone, designing and making the setting, to
seating and setting the stone. The extensive setting techniques are
combined with step-by-step demonstrations, precise diagrams and
images of contemporary work from international jewellers. A
comprehensive reference section, featuring an illustrated glossary,
makes this book the essential stone-setting resource for both
students and professional jewellers. Demonstrations produced using
3D modelling software provide the most up-to-date reflection of
current practice and technology, and allow explanations of skills
and techniques to be presented with expert accuracy. This book is
the perfect resource for jewellers of all levels.
