Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 14, 19165.
Application filed April 12, 1916. Serial No. 90,537.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JOHN F. SELMEIER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of Norwood, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Settings for Precious Stones, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to settings for precious stones, more particularly for diamonds, whereby a group of stones may be mounted so as to resemble at a distance a single stone of the size of the cluster.
I am aware that small stones have been mounted in a cluster to resemble a single stone of the size of the cluster by attaching to the plate or disk in which the small stones are set, a framework consisting of small wires converging and joined at the bottom thereof to imitate the facets of the pavilion of the single large stone which is imitated. I am also aware that the said facets have been imitated by a plurality of metal plates. A framework also has been used which was attached to the disk which holds the stones, made in the form of a star-like structure having the points of its radiating arms secured to the periphery of the disk. All of these structures however, have their disadvantages. They are very often frail and do not produce a'strong, durable mounting and must be cleaned with care.
It is the object of my invention to produce a simple and inexpensive structure which will overcome these disadvantages, and one which will be durable, easily cleaned and neater in appearance than those heretofore constructed.
In the accompanying sheet of drawings which illustrates a preferred construction: Figure 1 is a top plan view of my improved setting or mounting. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of same. Fig. 3 is a bottom plan View. Fig. 4 is a vertical cross section taken through the center of same showing the stones mounted therein. Fig. 5 is an elevation showing the setting mounted in a ring.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, 1 is a metal disk or plate in which the small stones 2 are mounted. This plate is of the customary construction, being somewhat crown-shaped with the apertures 3 provided therein. A shallow framework gallery a is provided and extends downwardly a short distance from the crown or disk and consists of a ring 6 at the bottom connected to the crown or disk by means of a series of curved bars 7, the said bars converging and connected to the periphery of the said disk at points between the holes in the disk. The ring 6 is preferably smaller in diameter than the disk 1.
The framework f thereby lends a substantial appearance to the entire cluster and at the same time admits light to the stones so that their brilliancy is retained and the ring 6 at the bottom thereof as well as the spaces between the bars 7 allowing easy access for cleaning.
The bars 7 are preferably arranged in pair and are slightly curved to converge at their points of connection with the periphery of the disk as best shown in Fig. 3.
By providing the ring 6 at the bottom and connecting the bars 7 to both the ring and the disk, the entire setting is greatly strengthened and at the same time provides a more sightly mounting for the group of stones. The entire setting when thus constructed, may be mounted in a finger ring 8 having suitable prongs 9 for properly holding the setting.
What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A setting for a cluster of small stones comprising a circular disk having a plurality of circular apertures therein in which precious stones are mounted to resemble the surface of a single stone, in combination with a framework depending from the periphery of the disk comprising a series of curved bars joined together at points on the periphery of the disk, and a ring to which said bars are joined at the bottom.
2. A setting for a cluster of small stones comprising a circular disk having a plurality of circular apertures therein in which the stones are mounted to resemble the surface of a single stone, in combination with a series of curved bars depending from the periphcry of said disk and arranged to form an annular framework below said disk, and a ring smaller in diameter than said disk, said curved bars joined together at points around said ring and diverging therefrom to their points of connection on said disk.
3. A setting for a cluster of small stones comprising a disk having a plurality of apertures therein, in which precious stones are mounted to resemble the surface of a single stone in combination with a depending framework comprising aring smaller in diameter than the disk and suspended therefrom, curved bars connected to said ring and arranged in pairs, the bars of each pair diverging from their points of connection on said ring and connected at their upper ends to the bar of the succeeding pair, said bars being connected to the periphery of the said disk whereby said framework is suspended.
