Setting Corners First on Cornered Cabochons

A tip from @haroldstudio on pushing the bezel at the corners first for a clean fit, holding the piece in a ring clamp to rotate as you set.

Here is a setting tip from @haroldstudio -“When setting cabochons that have corners, set the bezel around all the corners first to ensure a good, clean fit around your stone. Using a ring clamp to secure your work is a great way to be able to hold and rotate as you set“ thank you so much for letting me share this! It’s so helpful to see how different jewelers hold their work for setting! #stonesetting #jewelrymakingtools #jewelerstools #jewelrystudio #makingjewelry #ringclamp
