Reply to comment by muskytortoise in can gemstones be melted into a gradient? by Acceptable_Shift_247

Glue, solder, or a precious metal. I still don’t think it would work, though.

Why wouldn't it? You just described standard jewelry making tools. The soldering part is a bit iffy in that you're not actually joining the two but merely holding them in place but the method is essentially the same to create a seam keeping gems in place. They're not even a little related to what OP was looking for, but that's exactly how gems are kept in place.
