Fretz Bezel & Micro Stake Set

The Fretz Bezel & Micro Stake Set combines two complete Fretz stake collections — the Bezel Stake Set (112.630) and the Micro Stake Set (112.635) — into one comprehensive toolkit for professional jewelers and metalsmiths. Designed for creating bezel settings for fancy and standard stone shapes, forming rings, and executing small-scale gold and silversmithing work that would otherwise be impossible, this set delivers exceptional versatility and precision in a single package.

Fretz miniature stakes are manufactured from hardened 420 stainless steel with highly polished surfaces, ensuring clean, consistent results on precious metals. The stakes are easily customized with files and abrasive paper, allowing you to adapt each tool to unique project requirements. From setting irregularly shaped stones to forming rings by hand using traditional goldsmithing methods, this set equips the working jeweler with the tools needed to tackle demanding fabrication challenges.

Two Fretz instructional DVDs are included — covering both convex and concave forming techniques — providing hands-on guidance from Bill Fretz himself on bezel-making, ring forming, and a range of signature projects.
