Stone Setting 101: Cushion Cut Stone | 4 Claw | Goldsmith's Workshop Secrets

This week I explain how I set this big blue lab-grown diamond. Hopefully it will help you if you are thinking of setting a cushion cut stone! Or if you're curious about setting or interested in the making of jewellery in general.
This ring is 18ct white gold and NEXT WEEK we are showing the making of the ring itself.

[@tasdefeuilles]

So glad I found your videos, great quality ! Cushion are always a pain for me, I’ll try your method next time.

[@jacothejeweller]

Let me know if it works for you 👍🏻

[@jacquiventurini8844]

How do you file the prongs without scratching the stone. If it’s not a diamond this can happen so easily

[@jennykress2171]

what is the third-hand equipment you are using that holds the ring and yet moves around so fluidly?

[@jacothejeweller]

GRS Bench-Mate 👌🏻

[@eoinlyon4543]

What kind of engraver tool is that? I've seen rotary ones everywhere, but never something like that

[@jacothejeweller]

The tool I’m using to hammer the claws down is a standard tool engraver which you might pick up from any hardware shop. I’ve just grinder the tip down. They are great for stone setting.

[@mcspad]

You ever work with high end Opal? I’m obsessed with it and have started cutting. Hard to source hi grade rough tho

[@jacothejeweller]

Not as much as I should. It’s such a beautiful stone.

[@jacothejeweller]

@@mcspad I am planning some give away pieces to raise money towards a few worthy charities so that would be lovely 😊
