Mini Bezel Mandrel Set of 9

A bezel mandrel gives the jeweler a shaped steel form to true and burnish a fancy shaped bezel against at the bench, and this set puts nine of the most used profiles within reach at once. Every mandrel is steel and measures 3-3/4" (95 mm) in length, with the profile proportioned to a popular stone shape. Sold as a set of 9, made in India.

The set is intended for skill building and practice work. The profiles taper quickly and are not finished to the same precision as individual professional fancy shaped bezel mandrels, so it serves as a foundation for jewelers and students working toward more advanced bezel setting.

• Steel construction throughout
• 3-3/4" (95 mm) overall length on every mandrel

The profiles on these mandrels taper quickly and are not as precisely finished as those on individual professional fancy shaped bezel mandrels, so jewelers who need tighter tolerances for fine gemstone work should consider full-length professional bezel mandrels.
