[Jewelry making - Article 00065] - [Orchid] Flush setting stones

[Alma Rands]

========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm  ]========

    I am getting ready to carve some waxes for some rings in which I
    plan to set some fairly large, 10X14MM, and 12X16MM emerald cut
    citrines.. I was told that emerald cut stones cannot be flush set,
    and that they have to be set in a basket setting, or with prongs.. 

    I would prefer to have the stones set low in the ring. Where can I
    find information as to the best procedure for setting emerald cut
    stones in rings that are going to be cast. I will appreciate any help
    you can give me. 

Alma
