Hi all...As some of you may remember, I had JKT make a pendant for my little sister''s graduation with an opposed bar cut tourmaline from Gene. Well, this weekend was her graduation and the pendant was a huge success!
Such a success, in fact, that my mom wants one for her birthday. Some kind of green stone set in a pendant with either side stones to represent her three daughters or some kind of "three" design (perhaps just metal). My sisters and I are going to do this for her birthday, but we don''t have much budget, so I''m trying to stay under $250 for the stone.
Any suggestions? I was thinking about the below (its obvious who its from, I know). Its 1.51 cts, 7.2mm. Any reason why you think I shouldn''t? Will it be too dark? I wouldn''t go bezel this time, but maybe something like a modified Elixir pendant for a round.
Thoughts? Stone suggestions (green, any shape, preferably not olive)? I''ve missed you guys (lurking just isn''t as much fun).
