AT THE WORKTABLE
The stone starts to look like yours
You have the color or cut in mind, but the finished piece is still taking shape. Start with the stone, check its millimeter size against a mounting, then compare the proportions and metal color that bring your idea together. Each choice gives the next one somewhere to land.
A clear next step
A mounting that meets the stone
Metal color with intention
Compare before you choose
Your setting, measured
Compare the size, cut, metal, and details before your stone becomes a finished piece.
Measured fit
Center-stone sizes are listed in millimeters.
Metal choices
Choose sterling silver or solid 14K gold colors.
Know what arrives
Specifications identify the setting and center stone separately.
The NW Gems approach
I want every stone and setting to give your idea a clearer shape, from first color to final proportion.
I see a gemstone search as the beginning of a piece, not a choice made in isolation. That is why NWG brings gemstone families, cuts, colors, and jewelry-purpose pathways together with settings described by size, shape, and metal. The aim is to help you compare carefully, then make the piece your own.
Before you choose, get the details right
Will my stone fit?
Choose by millimeters: settings list supported center-stone sizes, from 4mm rounds to 16x12mm emerald cuts.
What am I receiving?
A mounting is setting only: the center stone is not included, and the product page identifies shape, size, metal, and weight.
How do I compare metals?
Compare the cut first, then the metal: solid 14K gold offers white, yellow, or rose, while sterling silver names 925 purity.
What happens after I order?
Shipping, returns, and warranty terms belong in NW Gems' approved service information; check Shipping & Returns before placing your order.
