A detailed wax model is created to bring the design to life and prepare it for casting.

Unset

The cast piece is expertly finished, ensuring every surface and detail is perfected before stones are added.

Set

Our skilled setters carefully place each stone by hand for a flawless, secure, and brilliant finish
