ABSTRACT:
A jewelry setting for a gemstone which provides the illusion or otherwise simulates the appearance of a larger gemstone. The setting comprises a collar having an axial, cylindrical bore disposed therethrough. A V-shaped cut is formed in the surface of the cylindrical bore perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the collar. The collar is adapted to secure the gemstone for mounting. The apex of the V-shaped cut defines a circle substantially equivalent to the girdle of the gemstone and lies in a plane which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the collar. The intersecting surfaces of the V-shaped cut are adapted to be adjacent a portion of the pavilion and crown of the gemstone. The upper surface of the collar uniformly circumscribes a segment of the crown of the gemstone and thereby permits display of the gemstone table and the uncovered portion of the crown. The upper surface of the collar may be etched or otherwise inscribed with indicia which simulate the appearance of girdle, bezel and crown facets.
