Category: Jewellery Making Tools

When a claw-set stone has to come out — for a re-tip, a stone replacement or a full reset — levering the prongs with whatever is nearest invites a chipped girdle. These pliers keep the job under control: the grooved tip engages each claw and lifts it away from the stone, while the flat, tapered opposing jaw braces against the setting. A small tool that makes routine repair work considerably calmer.

The construction is stainless steel throughout, so flux splashes and workshop damp will not mark the jaws. Double-leaf springs return the handles smoothly between lifts, and the curved vinyl grips keep your hold steady through slow, deliberate work. Wipe the tips after use so the groove keeps its bite.

  • Specialised jaw profile features a grooved tip to securely engage and lift claws.
  • Opposing flat, tapered jaw provides a stable counter-surface against the setting.
  • Stainless steel construction offers strength and corrosion resistance in the workshop.
  • Double-leaf springs provide a consistent return action for controlled, repetitive use.
  • Curved, non-slip vinyl grips offer comfort and control during delicate operations.

Who it's for

An essential tool for UK bench jewellers and jewellery repair workshops that frequently handle stone replacement and resetting jobs. Also suitable for apprentices learning the craft of gemstone setting and removal in precious metals.

Sebastian ★★★★★

Removing a chipped sapphire from a stubborn claw setting used to make me nervous, but these pliers let me lift the prongs without marking the stone. The stainless steel feels solid and the tips are narrow enough to get right in there. Re-tipping jobs go so much faster now.

Grace Q. ★★★★★

The claw tips grip the prong base so precisely that I stopped worrying about slipping and scratching the girdle. Pulled four stones out of a channel-set band last night without a single mark on the surrounding metal.

Jacob ★★★★★

The jaw tips are narrow enough to slip under a prong without touching the stone, which is exactly what I needed for a stubborn old ring. The stainless steel feels solid in the hand, and the grip kept my fingers from slipping during a delicate re-tip job.
