It’s been a while in the making, but they are here and I love them!

I lost one earring of my second set whilst cleaning it at work a while ago. I searched everywhere and could not find them.

After some time, I contacted insurance to see if they would replace them. Fortunately, our policy covered accidental loss! The search was on!

I am an old cut person... these are small earrings, and I wanted them to pack as much punch as my OEC and princesses. OECs were my first choice, but given the size I was after-3mm, I thought it might not be blingy enough.

I thought about MRBs. They really are not my thing.. then I thought, if I wanted MRB, I should get something special. I thought of the BGD blues. I had a budget to stick to so I rang BGD. Lesley was super helpful. She told me it is not a usual request, but it is possible... so she helped me get the size I wanted and in the budget I had to work with! Thanx, Lesley!!!

After a few false starts with stones that did not have fluorescence, then stones with mismatched fluorescence- we finally ended up with stones that are pretty close with fluorescence!

Stats:
each diamond : 0.1ct signature melee f colour
Strong fluorescence
Platinum martini settings
Push backs.

Seen here paired with my E colour 0.51ct Princesses in (new) platinum chevron settings.
I also took a picture of the earring in with the UV Light- just for fun. It didn’t work out... but thought I share with you guys!

THank you.. I was about to accept the mismatched fluorescent stones, as i was reminded that getting fluorescent stones this size was not going to be easy. BGD emailed me back and said they were going to get them closer matched. Brian cut some new ones for me.. sooooo lucky and privileged to have stones cut and for them to be closer matched in fluor!!!
A very unique pair. So, Sooooo happy!!

They look great on you Greg. I think they compliment the princess cuts pretty well. :) I bought a pair of .22 studs for my niece. They are little dots of perfection. Enjoy your little luxuries. :)
