Bur kit for JEM 422 Advanced Stone Setting

The Bur Kit for JEM 422 Advanced Stone Setting is a comprehensive, course-specific bur assortment developed for the Academy of Art University (AAU) JEM 422 Advanced Stone Setting curriculum — and for any jeweler or metalsmith who wants to build a serious, practical hand stone-setting toolkit. What sets this kit apart is that it supplies multiples of the most critical burs, so you always have a backup ready when you need it most during intensive setting work.

The kit brings together Swiss and specialty burs spanning ball, hart, shallow hart, setting, cone square, and twist drill styles — covering the full range of bur types required for bezel, pavé, prong, and channel setting techniques. Sizes range from fine detail work at 0.90mm up to larger format cuts at 5.00mm, giving you the versatility to work across a wide variety of stone sizes and setting styles.

Note: Due to ongoing supply constraints with the sole producer of American-made HSS setting burs, the 119.681 2.9mm and 119.686 4.0mm setting burs may be substituted with the next smaller sizes — 119.680 2.7mm and 119.685 3.9mm — until back-ordered inventory is received.
