How do I go about having a loose gemstone set in jewelery?
The easiest way to have a gemstone set in a piece of jewelery is to take it to your local jewelery store and see if they have a metalsmith/stone setter on staff. Most jewelers will be able to offer a wide selection of precious metal settings to accommodate your purchase.
