Using Bezel Cups

Bezel cups hold most calibrated cabochons or cameos;

1 Before setting your stone, place a small drop of E6000 adhesive into the bezel cup. This acts as a cushion for the stone and secures it while you complete the setting process.

2 Place your stone in the bezel setting, flat side down. Burnish the bezel over the edge of the stone, using a bezel roller.

3 Apply even pressure all the way around the top edge of the bezel. You can use a slim burnisher to reach into tight areas.

4 Continue until the stone is tight inside the cup and the bezel is snug and neat against the outside edges of the stone.
