Setting

A setting in the production of jewellery is always referred to when the gemstone is attached to the respective piece of jewellery by means of a specially designed shaping. There are different settings, which must always depend on the respective type of jewellery and the condition of the gemstone, or on its cut. The frame setting encloses the gemstone with fine metal strips and binds it to the rest of the piece of jewellery. Such a setting is very labour-intensive, but also protects the corners and edges of the gemstone very well, so that it can be used with all cuts for gemstones and holds the stone securely when worn frequently. The rubbed-in setting is a variation of the frame setting, in which the respective gemstone is inserted into a recess in the material of the piece of jewellery. The surrounding material is then pressed against the gemstone to fix it in place. The channel setting places all gemstones next to each other in a channel, which is a good setting especially for small stones. The bar setting is a variation of the channel setting. The pavée setting combines several small stones, making them appear larger in the community. The claw setting is the most common setting for modern jewellery. The stones are placed between claw-like supports that form a basket around the stone. Usually, four or six claws carry a gemstone.
