ITS LIVING AT THE ORIGINAL VENDOR AS THEY ARE GOING TO GET THE MOUNTING MADE FOR ME...............SO IT MAY BE A FEW WEEKS. HOWEVER YOU CAN VIEW AN ACTUAL PICTURE OF THE STONE ON THE COVER OF DEPARTURES MAGAZINE IN A GROUPING OF DIAMONDS SELECTED FOR THE DECEMBER 2004 ISSUES COVER (BOTTOM LEFT HAND CORNER SECOND IN FROM CORNER).

SORRY ABOUT THE ALL CAPS REENA --I AM NOT YELLING.................

REENA--DO YOU HAPPEN TO GET NELSON RARITIES CATALOGUE? MY MOUNTING IS MODELLED ON PART OF AN ANTIQUE BROOCH ON THE BACK COVER

Reena--you are the queen of setting ideas................anything exceptiional???????????????????//

anybody out there have an EC without side stones. I am debating shields as side stones ORr double traps flamking the center and set right into the shank

 

[windowshopper]

still interested in seeing pix of rings with Emerald cuts as solitaires.....................i am concerned the stone will look topheavy on the band.

thanks in advance for your help
