i''m thinking about putting them in the 8 prong martini stud. i wanted lower clarity...but these two seem like such a good match and they''re so close to .50ct apiece. hmm...i can''t decide...i did this with a pair a few weeks ago and someone else snapped them up.

yeah, those stones don''t last long.

you could always put them on hold while you decide. unfortunately, it''s hard to get the planets to align for everything spec wise on one stone, much less two!

i think i''m obsessing over a couple of things. first, i wanted to keep the depth in the 60.X range and these are a bit deeper than that. second, i wanted to keep the HCA score below 2...closer to the 1 range. maybe i''m just being dumb and overanalyzing the numbers.

yep... that''s what we do here...analyze..analyze! i would be doing the same thing.

you have some very nice stones there, really. you can always try to find something better, but it doesnt'' get any easier.
