Category: Jewellery Making Tools

Precisely lift and gently release gemstone prongs without damage, making stone removal a controlled bench task.

What it does

These narrow-jaw pliers are engineered for the delicate work of lifting individual setting prongs. The specially shaped jaws feature a grooved inner surface to securely grip the prong tip, while the smooth, rounded outer face prevents any marring of the precious metal. Their fine, tapered profile ensures clear access even in complex or tight settings, allowing for precise manipulation without disturbing adjacent claws.

How to use it

  • Position jaws carefully under the prong tip.
  • Gently lever the prong upwards to release the stone.
  • Wipe clean after use to maintain the finish.

Who it's for

An essential tool for bench jewellers, repair specialists, and silversmiths tasked with resetting or replacing stones. It's also ideal for apprentices and hobbyists seeking the correct tool for intricate stone removal, replacing less precise methods and ensuring cleaner repairs.

Ryan M. ★★★★★

The narrow jaws fit perfectly between tight prongs, making gem removal feel surgical and controlled. I’ve had no slipping or scratches, even on delicate settings. Exactly what I needed for precise bench work.

Leo X. ★★★★★

The stainless steel jaws have a nice weight to them—they feel precise in my hand. Lifting stubborn prongs on a ring took no effort, and the 120 mm length gives good leverage. This tool turned a tedious job into something I actually enjoy.

Edward M. ★★★★★

The narrow jaws are exactly what I needed for getting into tight basket settings without scratching the adjacent stones. I popped a stubborn prong loose in under a minute, and the stainless steel has a solid, balanced feel that makes control easy.
