Jewel-studded components are formed of a planar holder or carrier made up of rings joined together by webs with the back surfaces of stones secured into the rings by soldering or by an adhesive. The thickness of the holder is only a fraction of the height of the back surface of the stones. The rings are sized to receive the shape and size of the stones so that different size stones can be fitted into the holder. The holder can be formed from a thin metal plate and the webs are flexible and deformable. Further, the holder can be provided with support surfaces, laterally adjacent the rings, on which contrasting small sized articles, such as granules or floccules, are deposited. |
