Learned how to make this yesterday from an online tutorial. It uses double wires (in form of flattened loop) as prongs in traditional gem stone setting, and they hold better than you might think.
The center was meant for a gem stone. I don't have one; so I used a pewter bead having similar dimension in terms of width/height, although not shape. A keeper.
