Pics of Pave Cathedral Setting?

(i'd never heard of the guy who made this one and he wanted over $5k for it--forget it.) the setting was pave all over (on all three sides and on pretty much every visible surface, except that the setting wasn't eternity style--the pave went only 3/4ths of the way around.) it was very very delicate, maybe 2.5mm, not chunky at all (which i hate). and the part that i liked the absolute best was that it was a cathedral-style setting. (i find that i don't like most of the pave settings ive seen from the side view--but this one was fab.) PLUS it had split claw prongs!!! (it did NOT have a bezel, though, which may surprise some of you.) the problem im having now is, i came back here to try and draw it so that i can explain to leon what i want done, and i cannot do it for the life of me! im searching the web for ideas, but in the meantime, if anyone has access to side pics of a similar setting (doesn't really matter if it's eternity or not) and could direct me to them or post them, i would be soooo thankful. i obviously need drawing/memory lessons! Thanks! REENA _____________________ Cap'n Zales says, "Friends don't let friends buy the $199 holiday special! Hardy-har!"

Maybe you could even get a pic - you could explain that you want to show the setting to your "guy" (he doesn't have to know your "guy", in this case, is leon) _______________________________________ "any diamond given with love is a beautiful thing"

(Not bad for under 2 grand!) ______________________________ Stewart says: I'm good enough. I'm smart enough. And doggon'it, people like me.
