Taking pictures of Jewelry

[FREEDDAWG]

I have a HP Photosmart 935 Digital Point and Shoot Camera.

I also own several light stands, some tungsten lights, and a tripod (if necessary)

I would like to know a recommended procedure to photograph jewelry. (to put on e-bay)

If I use available light the images are flat. If I use the flash the jewelry will reflect back into the camera.

How do I take nice images of jewelry?

I am particularly interested in how to set up lighting for photographing jewelry.

Thanks for your help

I adore various types of jewelry, but I can definitely say that my favorite type of jewelry is gold chains. Recently I bought myself such mens rope chains and to be honest, I'm still in seventh heaven from such a purchase. The chain looks just incredible, and the price is not that great.
