<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 3520924, member: 15199"]Silver solder is probably better than glue, as it is more resistant to sharp fore such as pulling in and out of pockets. If glue is only way , then a good epoxy . I have switched to a UV catalyzing epoxy to hold gemstones securely in a setting with little visibility. It hardens with 2 minutes of UV from the light or 10-20 minutes in direct sunlight, or your friendly dentist might zap it with their UV they use to glue crowns and some plastic fillings.
