ABSTRACT:
A setting for retaining at least one grooveless precious stone and a method for providing such setting. A first portion of the setting includes a first surface, with the first surface contacting a facet portion of the grooveless precious stone at a first contacting location of the at least one grooveless precious stone. A second portion of the setting cooperates with the first portion and includes a second surface. The second surface contacts a pavilion portion of the grooveless precious stone at a second contacting location of the grooveless precious stone. The pavilion portion is situated below the facet portion. The grooveless precious stone is situated between the first portion and the second portion, with the second portion being wax-molded with the grooveless precious stone to provide a first pressure on the at least one pavilion portion at the second contacting position. The first portion provides a second pressure on the facet portion at the first contacting position in response to the first pressure.
