Stone Setting: An Inside Look at the Craftsmanship of Richard's Custom Jewelers

Richard's Custom Jewelers • April 18, 2024

Stone setting is not just an ancient art, but also a crucial component in jewelry design. This meticulous process involves securing a gem into the piece of jewelry, be it a ring, bracelet, necklace, or earrings. At Richard's Custom Jewelers, we're not merely placing the gem in the jewelry; we're carefully crafting a story, a piece of art.


Our Unique Approach to Stone Setting


Our craftspeople at Richard's Custom Jewelers approach each piece of jewelry with respect and dedication, applying decades of expertise to ensure that every gem is set perfectly. We take the time to understand the intricacies of each stone, using the best techniques to highlight its unique features. This painstaking detail ensures each stone is set securely, projecting its brilliance, and echoing the wearer's individuality.


Every Stone Tells a Story


Richard's Custom Jewelers is focused on the essence of the stone. We believe that each gem has its own story to tell, and our job is to allow that story to shine through. Whether it's a sparkling diamond, a vibrant sapphire, or a lush emerald, our skilled artisans use their expertise to bring out the very best of the stone.


Understanding the Complexity of Stone Setting


Stone setting is not as simple as it seems. Each type of gem requires a specific setting technique. Some stones are set low, while others are set high, each technique affecting the gem's exposure to light, its security, and overall aesthetic. Our master jewelers are well-versed in these techniques and can adeptly handle every stone, from the classic round cut to the sophisticated marquise.


The Endurance of Fine Craftsmanship


At Richard's Custom Jewelers, our stone setting craftsmanship ensures that our pieces not only look stunning but also withstand the test of time. We understand the sentimental and monetary value of jewelry, which is why we prioritize robust and secure settings that prevent stone loss, yet maintain the elegance and brilliance of the stone.
