How Our Products Are Made: Bezel Setting | Pandora

A bezel setting is one of the oldest stone setting techniques and is still very popular. A band of metal is wrapped around a stone, holding it in place from the sides and from a tiny edge along the top of the stone to protect it. Its low, protective profile makes it a good choice for people with active lifestyles. Bezels can be plain or decorative. It is traditionally used for cabochons and for displaying round-shaped stones and phenomenal gems.
