Cylindrical gemstone rods known as CYLETTES® dramatically ‘fire up’ as light is smoothly transmitted from end to end. Invariably eliciting a wow, their inventor, John Kennedy, opened his CYLETTES® patents to Jean Designs in 2000. www.jkennedydesign.com

In our CAPTURE pieces, the center gemstone is captured between CYLETTES® that are aperture® set into 18 or 14 karat gold. Color rods are cut in turquoise agate; blue, green, and lavender onyx; carnelian, garnet, citrine, and fire opal. CAPTURE setting is
also a Kennedy innovation.
