shown on fig1 is a carved object 1 included in a jewel 2 such as a necklace , a bracelet , an ear ring , a ring , etc . object 1 includes a bezel 3 provided with a decorative element 4 mounted thereon , here a cut precious stone such as a diamond , a ruby , an emerald , an aquamarine , etc . the bezel 3 is preferably made of a precious metal such as platinum , yellow or white gold , silver . the bezel 3 comprises a hollow body defining a cavity 6 . the body 5 is here provided with a square section , and has four planar faces 7 substantially parallel to each other by pairs . at an upper end , the body 5 is mounted with four claws 8 which protrude from the corners of the body 5 , at four junctions between the faces 7 . the stone 4 has an upper part 9 or crown , on which the claws 8 apply , and a lower part 10 or breech , which applies onto an upper edge 11 of the body 5 , and partly extends in the cavity 6 . the body 5 is provided with at least one pair of holes 12 of circular shape , formed in at least two faces 7 facing each other . the body 5 is provided with two pairs of holes 12 , 13 ( i . e . four holes ), one hole being provided in each face 7 . both coaxial holes 12 of a first pair , the common axis l of which defines a longitudinal direction , are provided in two parallel faces 7 facing each other , whereas both coaxial holes 13 , the common axis r of which defines a transversal direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction l , are provided in the other faces 7 , also parallel to and facing each other . the body 5 has , at its upper end , a first opening 14 forming a passage for the breech 10 and , at an opposite lower end , a second opening 15 , which forms an access ( both visual and mechanical , by means of suitably dimensioned tools ) inside the cavity 6 . it shall be understood that , according to one embodiment , the bezel 3 has an overall width ( i . e . distance between parallel faces ) of 2 . 2 mm ( 22 tenths of millimeters ) and an overall height ( from the lower end to the tip of the claws 8 of 2 . 5 mm ( 25 tenths of milliliters ) for a diamond stone of 0 . 04 carat ( diameter 2 . 2 mm ); the holes 7 have a diameter of 0 . 4 mm ( 4 tenths of millimeters ). for the manufacturing of a jewel 2 , the bezel 3 is mounted on a wire - like support 16 , hereinafter more simply called wire . it is preferably a wire formed in a transparent or translucent thermoplastic material , which may be colored , but advantageously not colored . as an example , a fishing line may be used , the diameter of which may be equal ( with a clearance ) to the diameter of the holes ( i . e . 4 / 10 mm in the present example ). the most common materials for the manufacturing of fishing lines are polyamides ( i . e . nylon ). one may use this material , the resistance of which is great but which sometimes weakens under cyclical constraints ( such as traction ). it might therefore be preferable to chose new materials , which tend to replace nylon in the manufacturing of fishing lines . one may cite polyvinylidene fluoride ( pvdf ), better known as fluorocarbon . compared to nylon , pvdf has indeed the advantage , being a fluorinated polymer , to offer an increased resistance to temperature variations and to ultraviolets . from a visual aspect , pvdf has a refraction index ( about 1 . 33 ) lower than the refraction index of nylon ( about 1 . 66 ), which makes pvdf more transparent than nylon . it is also possible to use composite nylon / fluorocarbon or glass fiber . as it shall be seen , the bezel 3 is not simply mounted on the wire 16 ; it is also immobilized in translation and rotation thereon . a manufacturing method of a jewel is now disclosed , with reference to fig3 - 9 . it starts ( fig3 - 4 ) with forming a bore 17 through the wire 16 , perpendicular to its axis , by means of a sharp tool 18 such as a nail , a needle , a drill or a gimlet . the tool 18 has a pointed edge 19 , possibly provided with a helical cutting edge permitting to achieve a cutting by stock removal , followed with a smooth cylindrical body 20 having the same diameter as the wire 16 . the bore 17 is formed by passing the tool 18 through the wire 16 , together with a possible rotation of the tool 18 at the beginning of the operation , for example when the head 19 is provided with a cutting edge to achieve a cutting by stock removal . at the end of the operation , the body 20 of the tool 18 is inserted in the start of the thus created bore , to enlarge it to the desired diameter ( that of the wire ). no cutting by stock removal is realized at this stage , the diameter setting of the bore 17 being made by simply bending the material . therefore , as seen on fig4 , a roll 4 of material is formed on each side of the bore 17 , parallel to its axis . the thus drilled wire 16 is then longitudinally introduced in the bezel 3 , through one hole 12 ( fig5 ). as the diameter of the hole 12 is equal ( with a clearance ) to the diameter of the wire 16 , the roll temporarily creates a resistance , which is overcome by pulling the wire 16 , the elasticity of which is sufficient for the roll to rub and pass through the hole 12 . once this operation complete , the wire 16 longitudinally goes through the body 5 of the bezel 3 , through both coaxial holes 12 facing each other , whereas the bore 17 in the wire 16 is then localized in the cavity 6 ( fig6 ). the wire 16 is longitudinally adjusted to set the bore 17 at the level of both other holes 13 , and the wire 16 is turned to orient the bore 17 transversally in the axis t of holes 13 ( fig6 ). a stop element 22 is then transversely inserted in the body 5 , both through the holes 13 of transversal axis t and through the bore 17 . once introduced , the stop element 22 extends transversely in the cavity 6 through the bore 17 ; it engages the edges of the transversal holes 13 which form stop surfaces for the element 22 in rotation around the longitudinal axis l , and in longitudinal translation . acting as a pin , the stop element 22 thus mutually blocks the bezel 3 and the wire 16 both in longitudinal translation , and in rotation around the longitudinal axis l . in other words , the wire 16 and the stop element 22 altogether form a cross which ensures the complete blocking of the bezel 3 onto the wire 16 . the stop element 22 is preferably of cylindrical shape and has a diameter equal ( with a clearance ) to the diameter of the holes 13 and the bore 17 . the stop element is e . g . a metal pin , the length of which is equal to the distance between the faces 7 of the body 5 , such that when suitably positioned the ends of the rod 22 are flush with those faces 7 , the pin 22 being virtually invisible to the human eye . however , in a preferred embodiment , the stop element 22 is formed of a portion of the same wire 16 that the one used for the mounting of the bezel 3 . depending upon the jewel model which it is intended to manufacture , the section of wire used for making the stop element 22 may be : cut at both ends protruding from the body 5 , in order to make those end flush and thus to make the stop element 22 almost invisible to the human eye ( fig9 ); cut at one end only , or not cut , when the portion of wire used is otherwise used as a support for other bezels , or when this wire portion is a buckle following the support wire 16 . partly represented on fig1 and fig1 is a necklace 2 with a pendent made with two crossed wires , i . e . a primary wire 16 which supports a first bezel 3 , through which it goes from side to side , and a secondary wire 16 ′ an upper end 22 of which forms a stop element passing through the primary wire 16 and blocking the bezel 3 both in translation and in rotation with respect thereof . at a lower end , the secondary wire 16 ′ supports a second bezel 3 ′, which is blocked both in translation and in rotation with respect of the secondary wire by means of a stop element 22 ′ which passes through the secondary wire 16 ′ and is cut at both end not to protrude from the bezel 3 ′. the thus manufactured jewel 2 , as any other jewel made with this technique ( e . g . having volutes , buckles , etc .) has an increased resistance to external constraints ( such as torsion , flexion , traction ), the crosses tending to resiliently bring the bezels 3 back to their original position .
