Molten Bezel

Design study — made to order

Molten Bezel

An irregular bezel of uneven thickness, its top edge undulating rather than level, the whole surface hand-hammered with visible planished facets.

Deliberately imperfect and structurally sound. Suited to stones with strong colour zoning, where a machined setting would make the irregularity of the stone look like a fault instead of a feature.
