Application filed June 25,
This invention relates to a method of makin jewelry, one of the objects being to pro vide an improved means whereby links of bracelets, and
similar articles, can be cheaply made, the resultant article being simple and durable. I r
Another object is to provide a a method whereby the articles can be produced in quantities by the minimum number of operations, thereby materially reducing the cost of production. a
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed may be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
' In the accompanying drawing the preferred. form of the inve tion has been illustrated. r a
In said drawing,
Figure l is anedge view of a blank strip from which the frames of the articles of jewreference, 1- designates elry can be produced.
Figure 2 is a plan view thereof. Figure 3 is an elevation of a frame formed from the strip material shown in Figures 1 and2.' r
Figure 4 is a front elevation showing a stone assembled withthe frame, a part of the stone being broken away. r
Figure 5 is aside elevation of the structure shown in Figures 4, portions thereofbeing in section.
Figure 6 is a of frame. p I
Figure 7 is a section on line 7-7, Figure 6.
plan view'of a modified form Figure 8 is a front elevation showingthe frame with a stone seated therein, a portion being broken away. f r a Referring to the figures by characters of a strip of metal rolled or otherwise formed into desired shape. This metal can be made in a long ribbon and can be cut to lengths and bent transversely as indicated by dotted lines at 2 so as to produce a means of hard solder orthe like, t
itre 3, one or more 0 i929.- serm harvests; n g V frame of any desired-contouri as indicated at 3. The ends of. the strip can befilinedb ese e'n v being indicated at 4. a
If desired the strip 1, when rolled or "other-- I! a be positioned directly back of the protuber- 6 i ances 5. v I After a stone has been laced inthe frame the protuberances 5-;can. edriven inwardly, so as to displacemetalinto the recesses fthese protuberances will This willr slllt in keying the stone to the frame so that'it becomes impossible to remove it. At thesame'time there-is'no visible evi- 'dence of the means whereby the stone is held in place. In Figures 4 and 5 the inwardly displaced metal has been'indicated at 8. v
It is to be understood that, if desired, the strip 1 can be formed without the protuberances 5 and, instead, both faces can be made plain or the outer face can be suitably ornal 'mented. After the frame. from a strip and a recessed stone or the like inserted into the frame, portions of the metal has been formed of the strip can be forced inwardly intothe I I recesses in the stone, leaving depressions in the outer surface of the strip. These depres n sionscan be part of a suitable design appearingonthe outer surface. g
' Instead of forming the frames out of strips of metal'cut and bent as explained, eaelfjfiame can be cut-in one piece out of a-relatively' thick sheet of metal. One of these modified forms of frames has been illustrated in Figures 6, 7, and 8. The frame 9canbe of any desired contour and has an opening 10 cut therethroughyportions of the wall of thisv opening being relatively thin where the inner surface 'approachesthe outer surface of the frame as shown at 11. Thus a stone or the like indicated at 12 whichfiis shaped to fit snugly in the opening 10 can be placed in said opening after recesses 13 have been formed in theperiphery ofthe stone at points adapted to match the thin portions of the wall of the frame.
Following the foregoing operation the thin portions of the wall can be pressed or hammered inwardly to form protuberances :14 adapted to extend-into the recesses 13. The resultant'recesses 15 in the outer edges ofthe frame can be utilized as portions of ornamentation provided along the edge of the frame. rticles of jewelry such as described can be used as bracelet links, watch charms, stick pins, breast pins, and the like, The;invention, as before explained, is particularly advantageous because of the easewith which the structures can be i produced, thereb adapting them for quantity production at low c'ost'of labor.
*- What is claimed is; a i s by an article'may be produced with duplicate opposed faces, which includes the step of orming an elon no es on one ace, cutting the-"strip into lengths each of which is-adapted to form a rame, ending one-of the lengths and join-' ing its ends to form a frame having opposed aces open,insertinginto the frame through e'itheropen face a stone or the like rovided with marginal recesses adapted to e closed the walls of the frame, and finally disp acing the nodes'inwardly into the recesses to hold the-stone or the like against'removal through either open face of the frame.
n testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I'have hereto aflixed my signature.
