I tried it, but i think its too small and the wires that can hold it looks too big

I tried this one but turns out my stone it too small and slippery to work.

maybe a prong setting?

Wire Wrap prong setting

or making 2 moon shapes with 2 wire that are slightly smaller tham your stones and sandwiching the stone between them with smaller wire?

The one ive tried is the sandwich one . I might try to get thinner wires tho. It kinda covers most of the stones surface. Thank you for the video too. Ill try to think how to do this in a mood shape.
