Half carat OEC pendant project

It is pretty and looks very nice on you. If you didn’t want to spend any more money on it, and didn’t like the amethyst, you could simply eliminate the drop. However, if you like the color, then you are good to go! The diamond looks great in the pendant!
 
Your stone looks perfect in it, and I really like it with the amethyst! I vote keep it as is!
 
Oh I love it! I think the pop of color is very fun. Looks like an elven queen!

Okay just realized you said ELVEN queen. When I read your comment before I read it as “Looks like an ELEVEN, queen!” And I thought maybe you’d been watching some Drag Race tonight :lol-2:

I appreciate both sentiments.
 
I think it's lovely and also think that 6 prongs are plenty to make it secure. The ones who look like they could use retipping seem to be pretty evenly spaced and not all grouped together. Wear it in good health and enjoy it!
 
Oooh she's here! The diamond is soooo pretty and this is such a unique piece. LOVE!
 
@EllieTO Yeah the diamond is wonderful. It’s a 0.54ct J VVS1 per its report, not GIA and I think it’s more likely to be a K faint brown. It has probably the best classic OEC cut of any diamond I’ve owned. I think she deserves to be the center of a special piece.

I wasn’t sure how her color would look set but the light return is so good it’s just a sparkly white dot

This pretty pearl is on my way. I’m looking forward to seeing it and how it would look on the pendant. I find the amethyst is quite dark and it flips so I’m curious how I feel about this pearl which looks very shiny.

I really like the idea of a pearl. I liked the two amethysts in the original design, but your diamond is obviously better, and now the lone amethyst is really out of place. What is the size of the pearl, compared to the existing amethyst?

About the same size. Amethyst is about 4x6 and pearl is 4.7x5.8. I wanted the keep the proportions as they are just right.

Definitely both sentiments! I really love it. I think that pearl could be really fabulous too. Always fun to have a project!
