Sterling Silver 6mm Round Snap-Set™ Pendant Mounting, 6-Prong


Description

This sterling silver Snap-Set™ pendant mounting holds one 6mm round faceted gemstone and features six prongs that help hold the stone more securely. A tapered rabbit-ear bail makes it easy to add the pendant to cord or chain necklace and bracelet designs.

Snap-Set™ settings, intended for inexpensive gemstones, are quick and easy to set. Just lay the stone facedown and position the mounting over the stone. Press gently on the setting and the prongs will snap into place, securing the stone. Some adjustments may need to be made, especially on hand-cut stones. These settings are a higher quality than previously offered settings of the same type.

Please Note: • IMPORTANT: Sterling silver is an alloy containing metals that react with chemicals found in air and produce tarnish; high moisture levels, exposure to sunlight and contaminants such as salt water increase this reaction. Take steps to protect your sterling findings by keeping them in airtight packages, use tarnish-resistant products (such as tarnish tabs or strips) that absorb harmful chemicals, and store sterling findings in a cool, dry place. Most tarnish is easily removed by polishing with a mild abrasive or soaking in an anti-tarnish solution.
