Description
Patented June 16, 1936 SETTING JEWELS Alfred F. Reilly, North Attleboro, Mass, assignor to Evans Case Company, North Attleboro, Mass., a corporation of Massachusetts Application March 24, 1936, Serial No. 70,686
5 Claims.
The present invention relates to setting stones, jewels and the like and is particularly directed to those out with upwardly and inwardly inclined side or end walls or both. A type of such stone is 5 referred to as cabochon and the stone may be of any suitable or desirable size and general shape. The invention is illustrated and described with reference to relatively long, narrow stones or jewels, but it may also be adapted to jewels of other forms.
In general the invention consists of a setting having some walls which are pre-formed to substantially correspond to the walls of the jewel or stone they are to receive. When the stone is placed within these walls it may be clasped and held therein, and the ends of the walls of the se ting, at least at their upper edges extend beyond the stone or jewel and may be bent inwardly to enclose, clasp and hold permanently in position the stone or jewel.
Such a jewel setting may be adapted for use in any particular arrangement or connection, such as rings, pins, pendants, or other jewelry. The setting is also adapted to ornamenting the surfaces or ends of boxes and receptacles of various sorts and for illustrative purposes such an adaptation is illustrated and described herein.
In the accompanying drawing which shows forms the invention may take Figure 1 is a plan view of a setting showing a cabochon stone partially in place. Fig. 2 is a plan view of a setting showing a cabochon stone in final position. Fig. 3 is a plan view showing a cabochon stone in the setting in its finished or completed form. Fig. l is a longitudinal vertical section on the line 44 of Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a transverse vertical section of a stone in its mounting placed on the end of a receptacle or case, a fragment of which is illustrated. Fig. 6 is a fragmentary perspective view of one end of a stone in the completed mounting such as illustrated in Fig. 3. Fig. 7 is a transverse vertical section similar to Fig. 5 showing another form of mounting associated with or forming the end of a receptacle or case, a fragment of which is illustrated.
A cabochon stone I0 is illustrated as having upwardly and inwardly inclined side walls I I and it may also have upwardly and inwardly inclined end walls I2. A sheet of metal is bent to form a base I3 with upwardly and inwardly inclined side walls l4 formed to substantially correspond in shape with the lower outline of the side walls I I of the stone I0. The elongated stone III may thus be slid longitudinally between the side walls I 4 as illustrated in Fig. 1. The stone I0 may be moved inwardly until it reaches its final position indicated in Fig. 2.
In this position the end of the stone II) will be stopped, engaged and held by the inwardly turned upper corners I5 of the side walls I4. The corners I5 may be turned in to the appropriate extent before the stone I0 is placed in the mounting as indicated in Fig. 1, or they may be turned in to the extent allowed by the stone after it has reached its final position indicated in Fig. 2.
It will be noted in Fig. 2 that the corners at the other ends of the walls It are not turned in, thus allowing insertion of the stone I0. After the stone I0 has reached its final position as indicated in Fig. 2 the upper corners I6 of the walls I4 at the ends opposite the corners I5 may be turned in to engage and hold the stone ID as indicated in Fig. 3.
In the finished condition as indicated in Fig. 3 it will be observed that the stone is tightly grasped by its base and held securely in position in the setting. The side walls I4 are shown extending through the entire length of the stone I0, and grasping it on both sides, holding it down against the base I3, as shown, but this is not essential since the side walls may be made in several separated portions and need not extend throughout the entire length of the stone.
The
grip of the walls I 4 on the stone holds it from leaving its seat and it may be held from longitudinal movement by contact of the corners I5 and I6 with its ends I2 whether or not the ends of the stone are inwardly inclined. As shown the inthe like.
It is shown attached to an end or side I! of a casing or receptacle diagrammatically illustrated in Fig. 5. The base I 3 may be attached to the member I! by any suitable means such as riveting, soldering, brazing, or welding, and preferably it will be attached before receiving the stone Ill so as to avoid injury to the stone.
In Fig. '7 is illustrated an optional form of setting in which the side walls I4 of the setting are connected by a base member which has short turned-in the stone portions I8 at each side against which III rests and beyond which the base member is turned away from the stone III to form members I9 between which is a transverse base member 20 which is separated somewhat from the stone I 0.
The stone is held between the walls l4 and the portions I8. Either or both the base members l8 and 19 are adapted to be engaged by or attached to the walls 2| of a receptacle diagrammatically illustrated in Fig. '7 in such a way that the base member 20 may itself form one wall of the receptacle. The base members l8 and I9 may be attached to the receptacle Walls 2| by riveting, soldering, brazing, welding or in any other suitable way, either before or after the stone I is put in place. Preferably the base member will be attached to the receptacle and become a part thereof prior to insertion of the stone I!) so as to avoid unnecessary handling and possible marring of the stone ID. The base may be thus permanently attached to the walls 2| or one of more of the walls 2| may perform the function of a cover to the receptacle, and instead of being permanently attached to the members l8 and I9 may merely find a seat against them when closed.
The particular form and constructions herein illustrated and described are not essential to the invention which may find other embodiments.
I claim as my invention l. A setting for a jewel having upwardly inwardly inclined sides and ends, comprising side walls formed to engage and substantially fit the sides of the jewel and having ends adapted to be turned in to engage the ends of the jewel. 1
2. A setting for a jewel having upwardly inwardly inclined sides and ends, comprising side walls formed to engage and substantially fit the sides of the jewel, and each side wall having one end turned in to engage one end of the jewel, and each side wall having the other end adapted to be turned in to engage the other end of the jewel.
3. A setting for a jewel having upwardly inwardly inclined sides and ends, comprising side walls formed to engage and substantially fit the sides of the jewel and having ends adapted to be turned in to engage the ends of the jewel, and
a base member joining the side walls having an inset portion so as to form an end to a receptacle and a seat for attachment of the sides of the receptacle.
4. A setting for a jewel having upwardly inwardly inclined sides, comprising side walls formed to engage and substantially fit the sides of the jewel and having ends adapted to be turned in to engage the ends of the jewel.
5. A setting for a jewel having upwardly inwardly inclined sides, comprising side walls formed to engage and substantially fit the sides of the jewel, and having ends adapted to be turned in to engage the ends of the jewel, and a base member joining the side walls.
