Definitions
- the present invention relates to a jewel holder for holding a jewel (gem) or the like, and a ring using the jewel holder, and more particularly to a jewel holder in which a jewel is mounted so as to be movable as if it glitters antiquely, and a ring having a jewel or like mounted in the jewel holder.
- a jewel-fixed type of ring is know as a general one of these ring designs.
- a cut jewel (gem) such as a brilliant cut jewel or the like is fixedly set on the collet of a ring by keep a crown of the ring to engage with a claw section integrally formed on the collet. Accordingly, in order to enjoy glitter of the jewel itself, a user moves his/her finger around which the ring is put as if his/her finger flutters.
- a ring having such a structure that the base portion of a jewel mounting portion on which a jewel is mounted is equipped with a coil spring portion connected to a ring band of the ring.
- the jewel mounting portion is vibrationally moved, and reflection light from the jewel mounted on the jewel mounting portion flickers. This flickering of the reflected light induces the glitter of the jewel at the user's eyes.
- the motion of the coil spring portion is too rough and random to enjoy the glitter of a jewel because it is randomly and roughly moved due to its spring force when the finger flutters. That is, the rough motion of the jewel-mount movable type ring is unfavorable to enjoy the glitter of the jewel.
- the glitter of cut jewels such as brilliant cut jewels or the like is more enhanced by a minute motion of the jewel itself because the minute motion of the jewels brings minute variation (flickering) of reflection light and it makes the jewels more beautiful and antique for human visual sense. Therefore, the jewel-mount movable type ring is unsuitable to achieve beautiful and antique glitter of jewels.
- the jewel-mount movable type ring needs an additional accessory such as a coil spring portion or the like, so that the productivity of such rings is more difficult and also the cost of producing the rings is increased.
- the present invention has been implemented in view of the foregoing problems, and has an object to provide a jewel holder for holding a jewel (or other accessories) which enables the jewel to make a minute motion suitable to enhance glitter of the jewel with a remarkably simple structure.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a ring using the jewel holder which enables the jewel have more beautiful glittering by uniquely representing reflection light from the jewel.
- a jewel holder for holding a jewel having a culet, characterized in that a jewel mount portion (M) is formed at the inner bottom portion of the jewel holder so that the culet of the jewel is rotatably engaged with the jewel mount portion (M) and the jewel makes a minute motion around the culet of the jewel.
- a jewel holder for holding a jewel, characterized by comprising: a jewel fixing base (7) on which the jewel is fixed, the jewel fixing base having a projecting portion (P) functioning as a culet on the outer bottom portion of the jewel fixing base (7); and a jewel supporter (8) having a recess portion (M') that is engageable with the projecting portion (P) of the jewel fixing base (7) so that the jewel fixing base (7) makes a minute motion around the projecting portion (P).
- a ring with a jewel having a culet characterized by comprising: a jewel holder for holding a jewel having a culet, characterized in that a jewel mount portion (M) is formed at the inner bottom portion of the jewel holder so that the culet of the jewel is rotatably engaged with the jewel mount portion (M) and the jewel can make a minute motion around the culet of the jewel; and a ring band (RB) fitted to the jewel holder.
- M jewel mount portion
- RB ring band
- a ring containing a jewel characterized by comprising: a jewel holder having a jewel fixing base (7) on which the jewel is fixed, the jewel fixing base (7) having a projecting portion (P) functioning as a culet on the outer bottom portion of the jewel fixing base (7), and a jewel supporter (8) having a recess portion (P) that is engageable with the projecting portion (P) of the jewel fixing base (7) so that the jewel fixing base (7) makes a minute motion around the projecting portion (P); and a ring band (RB) fitted to the jewel holder.
- Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing a jewel supporting portion constituting a jewel holder according to a first embodiment of the present invention on which a jewel or the like is mounted.
- the jewel supporting portion 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention is designed substantially in a bowl-like shape (or inverse-conical shape), and the cut jewel D is put from the open side of the jewel supporting portion 1 and set on the inner bottom portion thereof.
- the inner bottom portion of the jewel supporting portion 1 is equipped with a jewel mount portion M with which the culet of the cut jewel engages movably (rotatably).
- the culet of the cut jewel corresponds to the apex of the lower conical portion (pavilion facet portion) of the cut jewel D.
- the jewel mount portion M is formed substantially at the center of the inner bottom portion of the jewel supporting portion 1 so that the culet of the cut jewel is movably (rotatably) engaged with the jewel mount portion M and also the cut jewel makes a minute motion favorable to the glitter of the cut jewel.
- the minute motion favorable to the glitter of the cut jewel means such a motion that the flicker of the reflected light from the moving cut jewel is minute and brilliant to the extent that the glitter of the jewel is convinced for human beings.
- precession such motions will be generally referred to as "precession"
- the engagement between the culet of the cut jewel and the jewel mount portion M is made so that the cut jewel held on the jewel mount portion M can make a precession around the culet thereof (as if the cut jewel itself dances in the jewel supporting portion 1), for example.
- the jewel mount portion M may be formed as a groove, a recess or a hole at the inner bottom portion of the jewel supporting portion 1, or a projecting member that is provided at the inner bottom portion of the jewel supporting portion 1 so as to have an engaging portion engageable with the culet of the cut jewel.
- the size, shape, depth or height, etc. of the jewel supporting portion M must be adjusted so that the engagement between the jewel supporting portion M and the culet of the cut jewel brings the cut jewel with the minute motion as described above.
