:: CHANNEL SETTING ::
Channel setting are used to set smaller stone(round, square, baguette & tapered ) in a row. A channel is cut into the piece of jewelry and connected below with a bridge, after each stone or on few point only for support of the seperated parts. The bridge below should not be seen from the stones above. Below the top surface, a groove is frased on both side along the channel, where the stones can rest.
