ABSTRACT:
A gem setting comprised of a plurality of interconnected links. Each link has a male end at each end, an opening for receiving and holding a gem stone therein, and an apertured raised portion forming a platform for setting the base of the gem stone when assembled. A rimmed embossment presses over the top edge of the gem stone holding it securely in place. The embossment, along with a plurality of prongs, secures the gem stone in place. A female opening is provided in each link between the gem opening and the raised portion. In assembling, the male ends of one link are grasped together, the gem stone being disposed in the opening with the raised portion abutting against the base thereof, the base of the stone entering the aperture in the raised portion, and inserted into the female opening, then turned to lock one link to another forming the setting.
