Hi All, 

 I just got an email from Bostonian regarding their new products, & they listed these lovely studs.   I love that they are double prong but still look like Martini style.  Plus the gallery of them look interesting.  The description states they don't droop down.   Is this a problem with studs?   I dont own a pair as I'm more of a hoop girl.   Just thought I would pass this on.

ohmygoodness....I really like that setting. The double prong adds a little something, if I do say so myself. Very, very pretty!

Very nice, with a twist!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"It is also important for the State to inculcate in its subjects an aversion to any 'conspiracy theory of history' for a search for 'conspiracies' means a search for motives and an attribution of responsibility for historical misdeeds."

-Murray N. Rothbard, in The Anatomy of the State



John Swinton [1829-1901] Chief Editorial Writer of the New York Times (Considered "the Dean of his Profession" by his peers), when asked to toast an 'Independent Press' in a gathering at the National Press Club, circa 1880

"There is no such thing in America as an independent press unless it is in the country towns. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dare express an honest opinion. If you express it you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid... for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things....

The business of the New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and sell his country and race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same thing, his salary. You know this, and I know it and what foolery to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are tools, and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, all are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

Mara,  thanks for checking on that.  Thats too bad really.  I think in the end, when stores do this, that they really set themselves up because they could set external stones if they want.  Like all jewelery out there, there is some various reproduction of some kind for everything.  It's just a matter of time before another  company might create something different (no copyright laws broken) but similar.  Maybe Bostonian reads the boards & will reconsider their policy.

I said it on melalu's thread earlier today, but this setting makes me swoon!  It really does almost make me forgot my current bezel obsession. We need a PSer to get these and post ear shots, pronto!!!!

Hm...maybe I'll get them for my mom.  I owe her a gift.  But I wish I could pick the diamonds....

the setting you posted is pretty! Have you guys seen this setting on james allen's site:
The only thing is, I don't see them available to purchase, they are just in the intro picture for diamond studs. Maybe you have to ask specially. I think they are perfect!

The Bostonian Jewelers settings are beautiful!  Too bad you have to buy them with the diamond.  I'd love to see more pictures of that setting.

those james allen ones are pretty but they are too bulky looking on the prongage. not sure if that's just a stock pic or what but those prongs need some serious shaving down. on earrings, in my opinion, you can't have prongs too large or else they will make the stones look misshapen on the ear, who wants to buy rounds and have them look octagonal or similar. with a little tweaking those settings could be quite purty.

ccu...yeah maybe bostonian will wise up and just sell the setting or allow you to have your own stones set. i would totally be interested in something like that for my 'final' pair of earrings, whatever that may be!
