How do I pick the right stone for my project?
Start with color, then shape. Each page gives the cut, the size in millimeters and the Gemstone Report, so you can compare two stones before you order.
Are your stones natural or lab-created?
All our stones are natural. Each page lists the stone's species and origin, so you know exactly what you are buying.
What size will I receive?
For faceted gemstones, the millimeter (mm) size and average carat weight (ct) listed on the page are the mm size and average carat weight you will receive. The exact carat weight may vary from stone to stone, but the carat weight listed is the average ct weight for that mm size. Cabochon sizes are usually given only in millimeters, length by width.
How should I care for it?
Keep it away from perfume, lotion and heat, and wipe it with a soft dry cloth. Softer stones such as turquoise scratch more easily, so store them apart from harder gems.
Do you offer a guarantee or returns?
We offer a 100% authenticity and satisfaction guarantee, with a 30-day no-questions-asked return policy.

A closer look
The details that decide
A closer look at the setting
Built around the stone you choose
Before you order, check the metal, center-stone shape, measurements, and proportions that bring the finished piece together.
The setting, measured by what matters
1
Metal & purity
The metal is named plainly, so the finish begins with a specification you can compare.
2
Center-stone opening
The shape and millimeter size tell you which stone belongs in the prongs, from round to emerald, cushion, oval, or square.
3
Size & approximate weight
Choose from the listed stone dimensions, then compare the approximate weight for the proportion you want on the hand.
4
Shank & ring size
The shank width and listed ring size let you judge the band’s presence before your stone is set.
From stone to setting
3 steps, one setting that fits
01
Start with the stone, in millimeters
Begin with the center-stone shape you are building around: round, emerald, cushion, oval, or square/princess. Then measure the stone in millimeters and match it to the listed size range. That measurement gives you a practical starting point, so the mounting is chosen for the stone you actually have—not a similar one you may need to force into place.
02
Match the mounting to the cut
Select the variant that matches your measurement, then choose the available metal option where offered. The product record shows the intended center-stone shape, size range, material, purity, approximate weight, and shank width. For example, audited 14K settings are solid 14K gold in white, yellow, or rose, while audited silver settings are listed as solid sterling silver with 925 purity.
03
Confirm the mounting before you order
Read the product details once more before checkout: this listing is for the ring mounting, and the center stone is not included. Confirm the shape, millimeter size, metal choice, and variant price you selected, then place the order for that exact setting. Gem setting service details are to be confirmed; do not assume the stone will arrive set unless NWG states this separately.
Still checking the details before you order?
Will my stone fit?
Each setting lists its supported center-stone shape and size range, so compare your stone in millimeters before ordering.
What am I receiving?
The listing is for the mounting only; the center stone is not included, so you know exactly what arrives.
Can I judge the material?
The product record names the metal and purity, plus approximate weight and shank width, before you choose.
What happens after I order?
Shipping, returns, warranty, and contact details are pending NW Gems approval; check this area before ordering.
BEFORE YOU ORDER
The details that make the choice easier
How do I know the setting will fit my stone?
Match your stone's shape and millimeter dimensions to the options listed for the setting. Available shapes include round, emerald, cushion, oval, and square/princess, depending on the product.
What metal and color options are available?
The audited silver settings are solid sterling silver with 925 purity. The audited 14K settings are solid 14K gold, with white, yellow, and rose color options shown when available.
What exactly am I receiving?
This listing is for the jewelry setting only; the center stone is not included. Product photography, variant choices, metal details, dimensions, and approximate weight describe the selected setting before you add it to your order.
Where can I check the weight and proportions?
The product details give the approximate weight range and shank width for the selected setting. Gold solitaire examples list an approximate shank width of 2–2.5mm, with weight varying by center-stone size.
Can the ring size be adjusted?
Audited gold settings are listed in ring sizes 6–7 and can be resized to most sizes. Please review the product-specific terms before ordering, since custom sizing can affect eligibility for returns or exchanges.
