What’s the easiest bezel setting for a faceted octogan?
Morning,
A question that kept me awake last night....what’s the easiest bezel setting for a faceted octogan?
Long story short - I have to set a (11x9mm) quite deep faceted octogan into a bezel setting for my sister’s birthday present. Having been a newbie jeweller for only 5 months my family seem to think I can do this...I’m definitely not so sure but I shall give it my best shot.
I have set cabachons before so am comfortable with flat bottomed stones but never a faceted one. Last night I spent hours searching for tips on how to do it and I found a step setting technique but the only examples were for circular or oval stones. Would this work for an octogan too?
Or any other ideas for an easy way?
A million thanks
Emmy
