Benefits of technology

[0001]The present invention relates generally to jewelry and a method for setting gemstones. In particular, the present invention relates to arrangements of gemstones that enhance their visual characteristics.
[0002]Gemstones may be arranged to enhance the appearance of the individual gems and the group of gems. Together, they may enhance their visual characteristics and cause light to reflect or refract providing a visually pleasing arrangement.

Problems solved by technology

One issue within the art is that larger gemstones are more expensive, so it is desirable to provide a setting that looks like one large gemstone, but is in fact comprised of a number of smaller gemstones.
However, this can be difficult to provide the appearance of a single solid gemstone when using only round gemstones.
The '115 patent though, is very complicated to fabricate and expensive.
Specifically, mounting gemstones of different heights is very complicated.
The complementary gemstones are twice the length of the center gem and in use this is very difficult to fabricate.
