I dont like to wear it becuase the stones flip constantly, and the chain is not to my taste. I am thinking of giving it to my sister. I put it on Ava as a joke and my morther was spitting kittens.

LOL! You should have taken pictures! I bet that was adorable (Ava, not your mom spitting kittens)!

It was! But I know better then to argue when my full name is used....perhaps next time I am home.

That last one posted with the halo is stunning. For some reason I like that much more than the first halo, maybe because there are more diamonds added in the chain? Its more formal, but really a beautiful design!

I was thinking that becuase it will be much smaller in person then it appears on the computer that it might not be soo formal. I want to be able to wear it with polo shirts. I was also thinking perhaps a longer chain 17 or 18 inches.

I''ll trade

I have to figure out exactly what I want before I get qoutes, only seems fair to the jewelers...but I want it now!

The oval came in the mail on Friday!

Very true, scale is skewed on the computer. Either way, I really did like that last design! Good luck with your decisions!

Here is the sapphire outside in the morning.

I have decided to bring the stones North with me for the week. See if anyone else has a strong opinion about which one to choose. I am leaning, heavily, towards the cushion. I have been coming back to drool over the amazing picture Ana made showing how neat it can look with a halo.

 

[belle]

you should keep them both

 

[Kaleigh]

Good luck deciding, tough choice I''m sure. I love the cushion too!!

Mata, I was surfing Red Envelope last nite for Christmas gifts and came across this and thought of this thread...

Pretty and they are only something like $48-70 each for various gemstones.

Personally, I like the cushion -- the color is so pretty and the stone looks so crisp.

Me too! It is more of what I want for my necklace...I brought it home and my BF likes the cushion as well. Yippee!

I love the oval! Its sparkly!!!

It is sparkly, and between the two it photographs better, in person I prefer the cushion. Things have been crazy here but as soon as I am back in Ttown I am going to be making some phone calls.

Mat- somehow I missed this until now, and I had no idea you were still going through with this project in addition to your K pendant. lucky girl

both of those stones look gorgeous... when do you think you will have the cushion set? I am so excited to see the finished product!

 

[MissAva]

I have emailed Whiteflash and Quest for more information and quotes. It depends on how expensive this will be. Obviously I would love to do it this instant, but it really depends on price and how long it would take to do.

 

[Kaleigh]

I hope you get some good quotes, it will be awesome!!

You might try having a sapphire cut. I had 3 cut by Michael E and they were superb. Will try to post pics, he also made my 3 stone radiant rings.

This is the long oval he cut for me and I have 2 cushions he cut also that I will post as soon as I can find them on my hard drive.
