Description
A professional-grade bezel and prong setting tool set crafted in Italy, this 20-piece collection covers a wider size range than comparable French-style sets, making it well suited for jewelers and metalsmiths who work with larger stones and settings. The set includes a dedicated punch handle and stores neatly in a fitted wood stand, keeping all tools organized and accessible at the bench.
For tube settings, select heavy-walled tubing 0.5mm larger than the stone, then cut the seat with a setting burr exactly matching the stone diameter. For example, a 3mm round faceted stone pairs with tubing of 3.5mm–3.8mm outside diameter and a 3mm setting burr. Once the stone is seated, burnish the bezel using the appropriate size setting tool from this set.

Notes
Interior Polishing Recommendation: Before first use, inspect and polish the insides of all bezel setting punches if necessary. A super-smooth, polished interior finish will not mar settings or scratch metal. Bullet-point-shaped polishers such as Craytex-type wheels (e.g., Part #110.342) or similarly shaped polishing tools work well for this purpose. This recommendation applies to all bezel setting tools. While this set has nicely finished interiors, any jewelry tool can be further refined by the user for optimal results.
