An integral part of product photography, especially small products such as jewelry, is using the right prop. The right prop not only enhances the shot but also adds that little bit of magic which brings the whole shot together. Yes, of course, the product (which in this particular case is the jewelry) is the focus of the image, but the props assume a place of importance too in the whole scheme of things.
