ABSTRACT:
A design for a jewel mounting structure employing a moveable setting. A jewel or other stone to be exhibited is set upon a mounting sleeve which is adapted to slideably move along a curved guide surface having a predetermined radius of curvature. A connector depends radially inwardly from the sleeve and is journeled about a shaft which lies at the center of curvature of the guide surface. Affixed to the journaling element opposite the connector and sleeve is a weighted enclosure which will cause the sleeve to rotate about the shaft until gravitational forces maintain the weighted enclosure at the lowest point of its circular arc. The jewel or other stone being exhibited will be capable of slideably moving across the guide surface but will tend to be maintained at a location based upon the positional relationship of the weighted enclosure.
