Ok here they are. I’m distracted and not wowed by them because I paid for 4 prong baskets and they are in 3 prong martinis and it’s also super dreary here today.

Let me spend a minute with the light box and mirror and I have to blow dry my hair. BRB

They are gorgeous and keepers definitely. I’m not sure how they ended up in martini settings, but honestly when I selected 4 prong I was thinking maybe I should have gotten martinis. So 6 one way, a half dozen the other. I’ll have to see if there is a price difference.

Also, so far, no itchy earlobes.

Ok so that was silly. I deleted a bunch lol. The settings are the same price. I ordered La Pousette backs which made what I paid $250, which would have been the same with the martini settings, so we are cool.

@DiamondsOnly glad to help. I miss my dad this time of year too.

In the light box. Lab on top. Mined on bottom. They look exactly the same.

I’m going to go ultrasonic them. The labs are dirty.

I can’t believe how small my 1.4 look now :8

@whitewave They look beautiful on your ears! I’m thinking of getting the same size as your mined diamonds. Can you please post a photo of one on your ear. I’m trying to gauge the size. Thanks!!

Ritani really sucks with settings but usually will make it right if you say something. They set my earrings really poorly and ended up refunding me the setting cost when I complained so even though you are happy with how these turned out it might be worth mentioning their mistake to them. That being said the diamonds look lovely. Enjoy!

I can’t wait to see them cleaned.

I mean they are FILTHY so still cleaning them lol. I had wondered if they had blue nuance but I think they were grey with dirt. That has happened before years ago with my asscher when I first got it.

HOLY MOLY. They are sparkle bombs but they could actually be cleaner. I think I will soak them overnight tonight.

Thank you so much @whitewave! That’s also a great size to have!

Yes and I have BG cushion jackets made for them, so I think I’ll just keep them for when I want a more everyday demur look. Thanks

What a fine turn of events, the new diamonds are lovely and I wish I would have seen them first. Just kidding, continued good luck to you on your mission to create beautiful jewelry for your enjoyment.

Sorry they arent clearer. My daughter is taking a nap and I usually get her to take the pics.

That’s a really good photo @whitewave. I appreciate it..I just wanted to see what size they looked like on the ear. I have a larger diamond pair..but I wanted a smaller pair too. I had a 1 ctw moissanite travel pair that I gave to my friend. It was just a tad too small.. I loved the six prong crown setting though so I’m going to have David do that setting for me. This new pair will not only be for travel. I’ll probably wear them a lot.

I don't know what kind of lighting you have there, but they are shockingly sparkly! Beautiful.

Y’all, I’m still cleaning these earrings. o_O

I would say if you are going to buy ritani, buy a loupe with a light and a magnasonic from Amazon because you are going to be busy.

Still need another soak tomorrow.

Why does it always seem like one La Pousette back doesn’t work right? One of these just slips right off: any tips? Thanks
