A double ended hand tool created to pick up place and position flatback crystals, gems or other tiny items is disclosed. The tool contains a hollow, conical end which securely encases each crystal allowing the operator to easily position the crystal with no slip. The tool has a first end and a second end coupled by a shaft. The first end has a wax tip which allows the user to pick up crystals or other small items. The second end has a hollow narrow extended portion which allows the users to manipulate the crystal or other small items.

The specification relates to a jewelry setting. The jewelry setting includes a gemstone having a culet; a mounting rod having a culet-shaped indent; and at least one braze joint, the at least one braze joint being formed between the culet and the culet-shaped indent.

A movable decorative element, intended to be freely rotated and translated between two walls (5, 6) whose inner faces are parallel to each other, at least one of which is transparent, includes a precious or semi-precious stone (2) mounted in a socket (1). The socket (1) includes a closed bottom (4) whose outer face is bulged to promote the rotation of the decorative element when this bulged outer face (7) is applied against the inner face of one of said walls, and an open outer (7) opposite to the bottom (4) which is flush with or which protrudes relative to the stone (2) to form a bearing surface against the other of said walls (5, 6) when the decorative element is disposed between the two walls. The precious or semi-precious stone (2) is held in its socket (1) by a plurality of arms (3) which extend above a body (8) of the socket (1) and which crimp the stone (2), these arms (3) leaving, therebetween and above the body (8) of the socket (1), lateral openings (9) letting appear the flanks of the stone (2) between the arms (3), and said bearing surface is constituted by the free ends of said arms (3) in the form of separate contact areas spaced from each other around the periphery of the open outer face (7) of the socket (1).

The specification relates to a gemstone setting. The gemstone setting includes a gemstone, a mounting surface and a braze joint. The braze joint is formed from a reactive metallic alloy with the reactive metallic alloy adhering the gemstone to the mounting surface. The braze joint is substantially concealed from a direct line of sight from a top portion of the gemstone by preventing excessive alloy from getting outside a desired braze area.
