Size limitations

I have a 6.5 x 6.5 mm trillion shaped tanzanite, however I don't see that size. Does anyone know if I can use the 7 x 7 mm size instead?

Answer: 
This type of setting requires an exact fit in order for the gem to be secure and not fall out of the "bezel" type setting.

Answer: 
Yes you should be able to use a 7x7 mm trillion casting for your tanzanite. There will be a little "lip" that keeps the stone in the casting and the small difference in size shouldn't be a problem. Just make sure the prongs are set tight and secure. This, I'm sure will make a nice pendant when you set it. Enjoy

Answer: 
Yes a 6.5mm will fit into this 7mm Bezel setting. Just push the prongs down equally all the way around so the stone stays centered. Good luck and hoped this helps my JTV friend. This is a picture of a 6.5mm Tanzanite in my 7mm Bezel pendant casting it fits fine.

Answer: 
Size limitations as far as trying to set a 6.5 x 6.5 into a 7 x 7 sized semi mount? I would order the semi mount and then take it to a local but experienced-- very good jeweler to see if the gem can be set into this semi mount due to the specific gravity of the tanzanite. This is not a super expensive semi mount. However, you need to make sure that the jeweler can do this without damaging the tanzanite as well as making sure that the tanzanite will stay secure forever in this setting. Sometimes it is possible and sometimes it is not possible depending on the kind of stone you are setting and the specific gravity of the stone. Tanzanite is a little bit softer gem stone than a sapphire, etc., so they can't force it in or push too hard on the tanzanite to get it to fit to risk damaging or scratching the tanzanite. In other words I am not sure without seeing the stone and the setting together-- and you would want to ask a jewelry professional. I would order it if I were you and then take it to an experienced jeweler who can set stones in sterling. Remember once you set the stone in the setting you would not be able to return the setting to JTV if you change your mind or if the stone does not stay securely in the setting. Thank you and good luck

Answer: 
Should work nicely. A little smaller, no problem. A little bigger wouldn't work. The prongs you bend inward will compensate for the slightly smaller stone. I personally wouldn't put a stone of that caliber in silver. Deserves gold...

Answer: 
I don't believe you can place a 6.5 mm trillion into 7.7 mm casting, especially if the trillion is calibrated at 6.5. I suggest you contact customer service on their 800 number to find out if one of them can give you a more definite answer. Good luck!
