This is really exciting, Thing! I'm sure your necklace will look absolutely amazing on you.

I wish I had seen this thread sooner, 'cause I have a Barbara pendant from BGD, and I did the jump ring thing with mine. The chain is 16" with a jump ring at 15", and I almost always wear it at the 15" ring. I am very petite, though, and much, much shorter than you. I think 18" sounds like the right length for you.

One thing to note is that the pendant cannot be removed from its chain--at least, mine definitely can't--so getting two interchangeable chains might not work. Maybe ask Brian or Lesley about this if it's something you're planning to do.

Can't wait to see your pretty necklace (and yours, too, Tacori!).

I don't want to hijack, but Henna, do you have pics? I'm very interested in seeing as many pics of Barbara pendants as possible, since I'm considering buying one.
 
rosetta-wow, what a buy! It sounds beautiful-I'd love to see a picture if you feel like posting one here!

Tacori-I don't care about threadjacking-I want to hear about/see all things bezeled! :cheeky: It's funny-I get so used to shopping for jewelry online that I don't even think to check my local B&Ms, and there are several good independent jewelers near me. Maybe next time I'll stop by them to see what they have to offer!

Henna-that is very good to know about the pendant part not coming off-thank you! I guess that makes sense, because I wouldn't want to lose the diamond! I'm not sure how often I'd use the jump rings, but figured I might as well just add them since they're not too much more and I like to have options. I may skip the 16" jump ring but I can't decide...

oranges-no worries about threadjacking-I want to see pics, too! And I'll make sure to post pics when I get mine. It'll be a couple of weeks because I'm waiting on a bonus to finish the project.
 
Thing2of2, I really can't wait to see pics! eek! the barbara pendant is just SO gorgeous!!!! :love: :love: :love:
 
It's going to be FABULOUS! I'm so jealous. I want one too!
 
Thing, I went to a B&M to look at sizes and was impressed with the prices. I always thought online would be cheaper but not in this case. It was almost 50% cheaper than online vendors.

Get one! BGD still has another .55 K SI1 left! :Up_to_something: If I didn't already have earrings that one and my diamond for this necklace would have been a perfect pair!

Wow, that's fantastic! I can't wait to see it-hope you do a SMTB thread!
 
quick iphone photo for you thing. My 0.82 G VS2 OEC bezel set.

my pendant also has milgrain and the bezel sure adds size (the ring is my 1ct F VVS1 cushion, poor thing stil doesn't have a thread!)

edit: this photo was taken in very low light, without flash and the diamonds are dirty! :knockout:

Beautiful rosetta!!!
 
Wow, LOVE IT, rosetta! Thanks for posting-what a beauty!
 
Thing, love the pendant, cant go wrong with the style :love:

Ha, you and me both! And I will be starting a SMTB thread when I get the lil' beauty. Guess I'll just have to refer to BGD as the Vendor Who Must Not Be Named. :rolleyes: :halo:
 
T2... I have a .8 K in a thin bezel and I absolutely love it--in my avatar. It's 18" and I had a jump ring at 16" but I never wear it there. And it hardly flips. I wear it daily--that and my rings are all I wear 99% of the time. You'll lurve it.
 
Thank you all for the kind words!

Like mara I wear my pendant all the time, you won't regret this purchase thing2 :))

Thanks for all the advice and nice comments! Sorry to post and run-I had a busy Friday and Saturday!

gecko-I knew you would like the bezel action! :cheeky:

I'll post later today when I've actually tried on necklaces! I'm a bad PSer this weekend! And thank you all again!

Okay, here's the ridiculous thing about me and bezels. With the sole exception of my bezel band wedding ring - I absolutely hate the way anything bezeled looks on me! :eek: It's hilarious. I ADORE the look on everyone else! But when I got my bezeled studs... I seriously was like WTF? I'm happier with my martinis. And I tried on a bezel pendant at a B&M and just kinda looked. And looked. And looked. And shrugged, LOL!

Can't wait to drool at it on your lovely neck though!

Glad to hear from someone with the 18" length! I think that'll be perfect for me. And I didn't realize yours was a K. I was a smidge nervous about the color and thought about going for a J instead, but I figure in a small size and on my neck it won't matter. I love yours-I hope I end up wearing mine just as much!
 
rosetta-now you have me wanting to find an amazing old cut! Maybe I'll end up with 2 bezeled necklaces from BGD! :cheeky:

gecko-that's hilarious! Now I'm remembering you didn't love the bezeled earrings and ended up with the martinis! It's so funny how you end up just not loving stuff on yourself, even if you think you'll love it in theory.

Since popping out the kid somehow my memory has turned to CRAP, so I went to find the old PS thread. Yup, it's a .78 K VS. ::)
