Gemstone mounting — prong, bezel, and seat preparation

Scribd-style reading pane — scroll the page like a classroom workbook next to the video.

Preparing the seat

  • Measure stone and opening; cut seat with burs so the girdle rests evenly.
  • Check level and orientation before tightening metal.

Prong setting (basics)

  • Seat cut; prongs tapered; push evenly; avoid rocking the stone.
  • Inspect under magnification for loose prongs or chipped girdle.

Bezel setting (basics)

  • Bezel height and thickness matched to stone profile.
  • Burnish / push metal over the stone edge without cracking brittle gems.
