An object, such as a piece of jewelry, which has at least one precious stone supported in a recess of a main body, wherein the recess is bounded at least in some regions by a cover that is transparent at least in some regions and the at least one precious stone moves directly or indirectly on an inner peripheral wall of the recess or along an inner peripheral wall of an insert inserted into the recess.

A jewelry setting including a structure having an outer circumference in a round shape and setting a first set of stones, a second set of stones and a third set of stones, the first set of stones being set within the structure using a combination of prongs and a first set of mounting apertures, the second set of stones being set within the structure using a combination of the prongs and a second set of mounting apertures, the third set of stones being set within the structure using a friction setting and a third set of mounting apertures, the first set of stones, the second set of stones and the third set of stones being arranged so that the first set of stones, the second set of stones and the third set of stones appear to be a continuous, uninterrupted surface thus creating an illusion of a large stone in the round shape.

The present invention discloses an adorning element which comprises a base body having a front side and a rear side. At least one gem (4) is disposed in the base plate (1). In addition, a through hole (2) which receives the gem (4) is disposed in the base body for each gem (4). At least one retaining element (21) which projects into the through opening or through hole (2) and which supports the gem (4) is disposed at an end of the through hole (2) facing the front side of the base body. A holding device which holds the gem (4) in a defined position in the through hole (2) is arranged at the through opening or through hole (2) on the rear side. In addition, a method for manufacturing the adorning element according to the invention is disclosed.

A method for setting a central gemstone is disclosed. The central gemstone may be mounted on a triangular cone. The triangular cone may be configured to receive a first tapered end of the central gemstone. Further the method may comprise pressing a lower plate against a top plate. The triangular cone is on the lower plate. Further lapping the central gemstone with a plurality of gemstone, mounted on the top plate, such that plurality of edges of the plurality of gemstone overlap an edge of the central gemstone at broadest diameter in horizontal plane. The method may further comprise soldering a plurality of metal bars, positioned on the periphery of the top plate, with the lower plate at a lower base.

An item of jewellery (10) including a gemstone (20) and a substrate (40). The gemstone (20) defines a peripheral region (22). The substrate (40) defines a plurality of apertures (42) spaced in locations arranged relative to the peripheral region (22), each aperture (42) dimensioned to receive a respective post (30). The posts (30) are secured in the apertures (42) to extend from the substrate (40) and against the peripheral region (22) of the gemstone (20) to mount the gemstone (20) on the substrate (40). A method for mounting a gemstone (20) to a substrate (40) is also disclosed.

An object, such as a piece of jewelry, which has at least one precious stone supported in a recess of a main body, wherein the recess is bounded at least in some regions by a cover that is transparent at least in some regions and the at least one precious stone moves directly or indirectly on an inner peripheral wall of the recess or along an inner peripheral wall of an insert inserted into the recess.

A multiple stone setting (20) includes a first, second and third stone (21, 22, 23) each set on respective plane surfaces (31, 32, 33) of a base (35) such that the second (22) stone is positioned perpendicular to the first stone (21) and such that the third stone (23) is positioned perpendicular to the first stone (21) and to the second stone (22), each stone (21, 22, 23) displaying a different color. As the viewing angle of an observer changes, each of the colors changes to a different color. A two-color changing multiple stone setting (70) is also disclosed. By providing multiple stone settings (20) and (70) three- and two-color changing surfaces may be created, respectively, that acquire an autonomous entity with changing viewing angles. Stone settings (20) and (70) may be useful to create articles of jewelry as well as to enhance objects and designs of various natures.

This technique includes setting of 13 round cut stones forming a flower shape cluster, by setting the all 13 stones at three different levels. In these 13 stones there are 3 different categories of sizes: bigger, medium, and smaller, the bigger size contains 1 stone, the medium size contains 6 stones and the small size contains 6 stones. In the medium and small size category, the stone size is defined by a specific ratio to size category. This technique of setting cluster has three different height levels in which big, medium and small size stones are set. This entire construction of 6 small, 6 medium and 1 big round stone to create a cluster with complete diamond look, there is no negative gap seen in between the two stone and no metal is visible from the seat. This cluster creates an illusion of one complete flower shape diamond.
