Thirty-three years ago, a young French jeweler landed in New York with three wedding rings in his pocket that would change the face of the bridal market. The then patented "bar" setting, later trademarked as Gemlok, was an innovative setting technique. It not only afforded an original, elegant new look, but also a "technically" more secure and snag-proof way of setting diamonds and precious stones. The Gemlok setting made such an impact on the wedding ring market that many tried to copy the technique and look (but never with any real success). The secret of the Gemlok technique remains with its originator, Jean Vitau. Jean and his wife, Irene, expanded the Gemlok collection to include a complete line of necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings in 18 karat yellow gold and platinum set with exquisite diamonds and vibrant color gemstones.
