RhinoArtisan brings an excellent bunch of tools to Rhino, including a gem library, automated gem placements, ring sizing, prong creators and a photography studio for your models.

RhinoArtisan 6 - Specialised Jewellery Plugin for Rhino (formerly 2Shapes for Rhino)
RhinoArtisan is the most complete 3D CAD tool for jewellery designers. If you're a Rhino user and design jewellery, this plugin is for you.
One of the most powerful features of RhinoArtisan is the intuitive parametrics, which allow users to change any property of a design, such as finger size, gem, profile, and thickness of prong.
The software leverages SubD technology, allowing Jewellers to create intricate models. There are two ways to edit your design: using an outliner or by selection. Outliner presents a list of features and objects of your design which can be selected from a list. The second option is to select the object and edit it directly.
The user interface has been created to help the designer model in the easiest, most agile, and most comfortable way. All the commands offer real-time previews and the option to adjust visually or with numeric fields to work accurately.
RhinoArtisan offers the possibility to start your design from scratch, or select one of more than 2,000 elements. Based on what you select, change what you need and apply your style.
