Will also be interested to hear from a real owner, how it behaves. This really is a beautiful pendant! I take it you must be narrowing down soon to a little purchase????

I "accidentally" bought a teeny tiny diamond so I would like to make a custom BGD pendant with it. just try to figure out what the center should be like

Oh my... those "accidental diamond purchases" can be such a nuisance!!!
I also noticed they have it in milgrain as well - are you interested in the smooth high polish finish or the milgrain? What colour is your accidental diamond? (I love that!!) so what colour gold are you leaning towards?

It was really important to me to get a bezel setting that didn't flip and this one does not. I've worn it continuously for the last month and it has not flipped at all! My diamond is a little bit bigger, at .80 and you don't feel it at all. The metal arches around the back of the pendant cover the diamond so that the diamond isn't against your skin. If that makes sense.

You'd have to find another project for your diamond and it isn't a Barbara, but it's worth thinking about It intrigues me also but I'm just not sure about affordability at this moment. I kinda did an accidental purchase myself!! (well, it was so totally preplanned and I harassed the heck out of poor Luann!!!)

How long is your chain? Of the three fixed stoned pendants I've owned, the only one that hasn't flipped is 18" long. I wonder if that makes a difference.

I most likely will get this. I'm trying to do something a little more custom with the barbara but all depends on the quote I get from them

It might make a difference. I didn't use the one that BGD had with it. I use a 20 inch chain. For me, it's a good length of my neck.

I'm sorry, I would but I didn't even have them send me the chain. I knew that I wouldn't use it.
lktx|1328547862|3120158 said:I have the Barbara pendant on a 16" chain. I asked my SO if he noticed, and he said "it doesn't flip the majority of the time, not even 2/3 of the time, but it does flip."
I've tried to sum things up here, but I'm not sure this description makes any sense...I've found that if the clasp is sitting snugly against the back of my neck, such that the diamond sits a bit lower on my chest, it doesn't flip. However, if the clasp drops down lower on the back of my neck, bringing the diamond closer to my collar bone, I do notice it flipping.
