Pretty stones! I haven''t read all the posts, but they would be gorgeous as earrings!

Beautiful pair! After seeing examples of both I am swayed toward the delicate milgrain bezels.

Princess - Thanks! I remember your 0.18 last year - is there a thread on the other? I want to see pics!! They''re going to be such sweet studs

Thanks kelpie! rose gold bezels... hmmm

Indy - That''s my concern too - not so much that the bezel will highlight the lopsiness (I''m usually nutty about symmetry but somehow I find it really cute), but that it''ll look like I have a cushion in one ear and a round in the other..

Oops...I knew I forgot to do something! No, there''s no thread on the second stone. I''ll see if I can take some pictures tonight. It''s .19 G VS, and the facet pattern isn''t quite what I like, but I don''t think I''d ever get a better match at that size. Same dimensions, within 1 colour grade, same clarity. It''s got some leakage, and doesn''t sparkle all the way through like the .18, but at the end of the day, they''re earrings. They don''t need to be perfect.

They are gorgeous! Another vote for the milgrain bezel!

Cheers, Sparkly!

Thanks for looking princessplease, Farleysmom, butterfly, legra, gecko

princess - yes, do! That''s kinda my take on it - they don''t have to be perfect or perfectly matched, just attractive.. they sound like a good match!

I love these and I love their personality as well. These stones have attitude! I bet they look amazing in motion sparkling and catching and throwing the light! Can''t wait to see what you choose for them. Beautiful.

Love them! I am a super sucker for bezels, but I can see that they might make Lopsy more prominant. Then again, they''re on your ears, will anyone really notice? But how can you go wrong with the martini either? They are to die for as well. Either way, I think you''ll win!
