In the use of stone protected articles of jewelry such as finger rings where there is an emblem member which is mounted over a gem or stone member with piercings in the emblem member so that the stone may be viewed through the piercings and forms a background for the emblem, it frequently occurs that the stone will rattle or move, which is undesirable. It also sometimes occurs that. the stones are of varying thicknesses and some compensation has to be made in order to accommodate the stones of these varying thicknesses; and in order to avoid "both of these undesirable results, I have provided a holding member having a seat for the gem therein in which the gem is individually and securely held, and I provide another seat for the superimposed emblem. so that this emblem will cover over the edge of the stone and be flush with the outer surface of the holding device, in which position it is securely held to providean attractive appearance; and the following is a more detailed description of the present embodiment of this invention, illustrating the preferred means by .which these advantageous results may be accomplished:
With reference to the drawing, l5 designates the shank of the ring or other article of jewelry which forms the base and mounting portion for the holding device designated as l6 which is formed separate from the shank l5 and soldered to a fiat base portion l1 provided 'on the top of the shank, although if practical, so far as the invention is co'r'icerned, these parts l5 and I6 could be made in one piece.
A holding device It is provide with a gem seat l8 of a bevel formation for the reception of a gem l9 having a bevel edge to fit against this seat l8. The raised periphery or edge portion 2! of this seat I8 is then peened over as at 22 in Fig. '7, to hold the gem l9 snugly and securely in and against its seat l8. A larger recess portion 24 provides a separate and independent seat 23 for an emblem member 25. This emblem member is somewhat arched in construction and of a shape substantially corresponding, to the shape of the upper surface 26 of the stone I!) so as to closely follow the same and be either spaced therefrom slightlyor in closecontact therewith to prevent the accumulation of dirt or foreign matter between the emblem -and the gem l9.
This emblem is pierced or cut out as at 21 so that the gem or stone l9 may be viewed therethrough and provides a background for the emblem as it is viewed from the top of the ring.
- The thickness of the emblem member is such that in the showings of Figs. 1 and 8, the upper edge '28 of the holding device is substantially flush with the upper'surface 29 of the emblem member and thus both the edge of the stone and the emblem member are protected against injury r to their edges.
This emblem member may be held in this poiition on itsv separate seat 23 by any suitable means. I have illustrated 'in Figs. 1 to 9 in- U elusive, pins 30 as secured to the, back of the stone. provided for holding this emblem member on its emblem member 25 and extending through the stone Hand riveted over as at 3| in back of the However, other various means may be separate seat, such for instance as the peening and is substantially flushtherewith.
or rolling in of the'edge portion 32 of the holding device it and the rolling over of this edge portion as at 33 in Fig. 11 to hold the emblem member in position. In this case, the holding of the emblem member is entirely independent of the stone and the stone and emblem member .are
held separately and firmly so that regardless ofthe thickness-of the stone each is held against;
rattling. In thiscase, the edge portion 33 in being peened over about the entire edge of the stone is thinned downsufliciently so that its-surface merges with that of the emblem member In some cases, instead'of having a continuous annular seat in the holding device about the stone the seat for the emblem member may be in three sections as 35, 36 and 31 and the emblem member 38 is provided with three fingers 39, 40 and 4| spaced correspondingly with the spacing of the seats 35, 36 and 31, in which case' this emblem member is positioned above the stone and the edge portions 42, of these seats, are rolled the device is susceptible, the invention being defined-and limited only by the termsofthe appended claims.
