How to Choose the Correct Bezel Height

Here is a tip for achieving the correct bezel height from @rosyrevolver (and a GIVEAWAY from @rosy.on.the.rocks 😁❤️) - “1. Measure the thickness of the stone’s edge. (Digital calipers recommended). 2. Select a bezel wire with a width that is no more than 1mm more than the height of your stone’s edge. If commercially unavailable, you can sand or use a bench shear to custom cut your own width of fine silver sheet (28g works great). 3. When holding the wire up to the edge of your stone, it should be just slightly taller. Best to check this on a perfectly flat surface such as your bench block.”😄 Jess actually wrote out an entire step by step for bezel making and I’ll be sharing more of that in my stories and on my blog! We also have a GIVEAWAY 🔥Her husband David @rosy.on.the.rocks is giving away a gorgeous stone lot AND a Society Zip Hoodie to ONE WINNER and a SECOND WINNER 😯 will get another lot of stones. So head over to their page to enter and give them a follow to support these awesome people! ❤️ #metalsmithsociety #rosyontherocks #stonesetting #bezelsetting #giveaway
