Ahui,
I would tend to say that any jeweler should be able to handle it. Basically, you
want to bore a hole in the torso, push an earring into it, bend the pin of the
earring over to lock it in, and probably also epoxy it in place.
The skill will come in shaping the hole to make it look as natural as possible.
As a bonus, you could probably get Rob to mount a white LED inside the torso so that
you could remotely attach a battery to it to light the gem up ;-)
