Another new WF pendant

[prettyinpave]

I received it yesterday and it is awesome. The setting is so delicate that it''s nearly invisible and it is BRIGHT and super-sparkly. Now that I''ve seen this one, I know that I probably haven''t ever seen a stone with a truly great cut in person.

The only problem is that when I put it on, it''s default position on my neck has the diamond facing the floor instead of looking straight out. It doesn''t flip over totally, just tips toward the floor. I can adjust it, but it always goes back. I e-mailed Bob about it, so we''ll see what we can do.

This is my first diamond purchase and I''m very pleased. Thanks to everyone for their wisdom! I''ll add some neck shots tomorrow night.

[Jennifer5973]

Well done!

I think it is beautiful and a great size! Neck shots, please!

 

[Libster]

It''s a beauty

I just love the setting and the stone is super sparkly!

My wheels are spinning, as I have a .48 G VVS that is in a ring I never wear

 

[belle]

love the look of the simple 3prong

i hope it works out for you

neck shots asap!

Just my .02 but I think every pendant, especially this type, can flip--it''s a matter of degree. If it''s flipping all the time or not laying right in general, then an adjustment is probably needed. I know some people swear that their pendants never flip but I think the reality may be that they rarely flip or turn, which is as it should be. Shooting for a pendant that stays in the perfect position 100% of the time is unrealistic, IMO, and can lead to OCD.

Don''t drive yourself nuts!

Too late, Jennifer, I think I''ve already crossed that line years ago!

I''m going to wear it for a day or two and see how I feel.

 

[Patty]

Thanks for the info Jenn...so THAT''S where my OCD came from!

prettyinpave, it''s a beautiful pendant!

i agree with jenn. make sure you are being realistic with your expectations of the pendant.

HI:

GR 8!!! With the rush on for pendants--soon WF will have no stock left.........

cheers--Sharon

 

[Maxine]

Very..pretty...I love that setting!!!!

 

[appletini]

I love your pendant! I have one on a tiny gold chaing that my granddaddy gave me my grandma many years ago, she eventually gave it to me. You''ve inspired me to have it reset, so that I can wear it more often.

I can''t wait to see the neck shots!

hahaha - actually OCD and pendants can be a good mix. lol Whenever I forget to check my pendant for a few hours, usually the diamond has repositioned up next to my collar bone

Congratulations on your new necklace!

nice looking pendant.

 

[Mara]

beautiful new pendant, love it!!

re: the facing the ground, that should definitely not be happening...let us know what WF says.

i am lucky in that i have a 4 prong basket done by GOG that rarely (or for me never, but as Jen notes you never really know since it''s on your neck!!) flips and the only time it EVER moves around my neck is when i wear it to kbox class and it ends up around the other side of my neck. but honestly, i love my setting and feel pretty lucky to have one that seems to perform with relatively little problems. i think flipping alot or pointing at the floor or traveling alot would drive me nuts over time.

 

[Kamuelamom]

Kmom

really

wants

a

pendant!!

But I admire yours very much

, as the other pretty ones which are posted here. Hope your flipping issues get resolved but congratulations on what looks like a lovely stone.

Lovely necklace.

I have issues with pendants flipping too. I wondered if a bail like this one would prevent it from happening without being too obviously there.

 

[stretch4]

It''s gorgeous!! How about some neck shots???

Hi, Bagpuss!

I think that bar idea is great! Sundial recently posted hers on the other "solitaire pendant" thread...

Apparently she put hers on a bar because of flipping issues, and it works. I think it looks great, too. I tried to repost her neck shot but it wouldn''t load....
