Wow, that is absolutely awesome. You must be thrilled with it! I love its uniqueness and it looks like top-notch quality! congratulations on finding the forever home for your OEC!
LV- I remember how excited you were when you received this little beauty! I cannot imagine a more gorgeous home for her than this pendant! The stone is showcased so beautifully; she can be appreciated in all her splendor without being over-powered by the fishtail prongs and bail of the first mounting. I''m blown away by how gorgeous this is!!!! Oh, congratulations to you AND Sally for hitting the nail square on the head with this piece!!!
I love it! It looks like a modern take on my grandmother''s pendant. Also rectangular, but hers hangs N/S instead of E/W. If I had a stone on hand, (sadly, I don''t)I would be very tempted to use your pendant as a starting point for a new project! Enjoy.
Thank you, everyone, for your kind comments about my pendant!

Lady Disdain, No worries about calling the lil' sapphire cute! It IS cute!! Glad you like the design too. I'll be looking forward to your OMC pics. Hope the sun is shining soon!
SapphireLover, oddoneout, Lurchie, TBjumper, I will take some neck shots this weekend! The sun should be shining in New England by then. Right now, it is very rainy, as in flooding rains!!!
Uppy, Thank you! Thank you! I really appreciate your comments. I'm glad you like it so much!
Burberrygirl, Thanks so much and thanks for the compliment on my photos! I took soooooo many photos and edited down to these few!
Deco, Sounds like it's time for your .31 OEC to find a new home! I'm so glad you *heart* my pendant. I'd be delighted if you copied it! The wonderful thing about working with Sally, though, is that you could tweak it any way you want! Not that you would have too, but if you were inclined to change a thing or two, she could do it! Have you posted pics of your .31? Think it's time to e-mail Sally?
Sparkles&Glitter, Haha, I know what you mean about the first pendant. Sally has an Etsy shop: Heart of Water Jewels. If you search 'Sally' on here you will find many examples of her work, including the lotus setting, which is very popular among the colored stone crowd.
KaeKae, I'd love to see a photo of your grandmother's pendant. I sent many vintage pendant photos to Sally to give her an idea of what I was looking for. Maybe you'll save the idea for a future project!
Kelpie, Thank you so much. That is a great compliment to Sally's workmanship!
I think it is because the goldsmithing is done by hand, without casting, that she is able to achieve such delicate results. Her etsy shop can be found here: Heart of Water Jewels
