A tool (6) is applied perpendicular to a surface of the piece and proximate to a periphery of the hole for forcing a rim (8) of the piece on a girdle (9) of the stone. An impression comprising a facet is printed on surface of the piece, where the facet reflects light and the surface is defined between adjoining stones. Independent claims are also included for the following: (a) a tool implementing a stone setting method (b) a product such as jewel or clock piece comprising a metal piece.
