The system and method includes a display container having an outer body, a back cover, a transparent front cover located a distance from the back cover, at least one metal bearing having a facetted exterior lower surface and sized to fit within the container between the back cover and the front cover. The metal bearing is adapted to pin or nail a precious or semi-precious stone thereby retaining the stone and the height of the metal bearing and stone is less than the distance between the front and back covers. The distance between the front and back covers is such that the stone containing metal bearing is able to rock or tilt from side to side without falling completely on its side.
