Stone Setting

In stone setting class we have been learning many different types of settings for many types of stones. Each setting has to be approached a different way. Each one has to be precise and exact. At times it can be very frustrating. So much of stone setting is the set up and I always just want to get to it.

With the style of my work I think I will end up using the flush setting the most often. I set three garnets into my large pebble ring. No help, no problems, no mistakes. I think I am finally getting the hang of it.
