Jewelry bezel settings have a band defining an aperture shaped to receive a stone. The band has a flange defining an upper opening and a pavilion-facing interior surface defining a lower opening. The flange extends radially inward a pre-selected distance to sit on a top edge of a girdle of the stone, and the pavilion-facing interior surface is angled to seat against facets of the stone. A channel is formed in and extends around an interior perimeter of the band between the flange and the pavilion-facing interior surface, and a cured material fills the channel and defines a plurality of pavilion facet-mating surfaces. The cured material defines a layer having a preselected color selected to enhance a brilliance of the stone.
