Conner's stone setting pliers offer precise control for carefully closing claw settings on rings and other jewellery pieces.

What it does

These pliers are engineered to gently push and burnish metal prongs over a gemstone, securing it without damaging the girdle. The precisely machined groove on the upper jaw cradles the prong tip, guiding it into place. The robust box-joint construction ensures the jaws remain aligned and resist twisting, even under firm pressure. This design facilitates a clean, professional finish on delicate claw settings.

How to use it

  • Position the prong tip within the upper jaw's groove.
  • Gently squeeze handles to carefully bend and shape the prong.
  • Wipe clean and store to maintain jaw alignment.

Who it's for

An indispensable tool for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and dedicated stone setters working with diamonds and other precious stones. Whether you're a seasoned professional or an intermediate craftsperson, these pliers offer superior control over traditional burnishing tools for claw setting tasks.

Common questions at the bench

Will these mark soft silver wire?
Our flat-, snipe-, and round-nose pliers have polished interior jaws — they will not mark cleanly annealed precious-metal wire when used with normal grip pressure. For absolutely no-mark work on finished pieces, wrap the jaws with masking tape or nylon-jaw covers (sold separately).
Can these cut hardened wire?
Tungsten-carbide-tipped cutters in this collection handle hardened steel up to spring temper. Standard side cutters are for non-ferrous (silver, gold, copper, brass) up to half-hard. Check the product spec for the cutting capacity.
What is the difference between parallel and standard pliers?
Standard pliers pivot on a single point — the jaws scissor open and grip strongest at the tip. Parallel-action pliers stay perfectly parallel through the full opening, giving equal grip pressure across the whole jaw face. Parallel models are higher-precision (better for wire-wrapping and dead-soft annealed wire) but cost more.
Do they come spring-loaded?
Most of our bench pliers ship spring-loaded for one-handed operation. Where the spring is removable, the product description notes it. Spring tension is set for all-day comfort, not maximum grip.
