Project: Minimalist Setting for a Triangle Stone

I had this pretty triangular cabochon that I wanted to be the real focus of the piece, so I built a minimalist prong setting to show it off. This might be suitable for intermediate level metalsmiths. For materials, I used: 14 gauge (1.3 mm) sterling round wire, 12 (2 mm) and 16 gauge (1.6 mm) sterling square wire, and 18 (1 mm) and 22 gauge (.66 mm) sterling sheet. I used hard silver sheet solder and a liquid flux with a bit of easy paste at the end. If you see me make a piece of Jewelry you'd like to purchase, contact me through my website.
