Well, here's a whole selection!

DKJ claws on my Beloved 3 stone.

DKJ claws. I loved these because they didn't protrude too far from the perimeter of the diamond's surface.

Slightly chunkier claws for my cluster.

Teensy teensy claws from DKJ on my 6 prong 7 stone anniversary band.

My original Beloved - a solitaire. When I look at this now, I'm just blown away by what a beautifully made ring that was.

My diamond cluster. Beautifully even, slightly chunkier claws.

Beloved solitaire before she was set. I later removed the milgrain.

I've included claws by a few different jewelers - this one by Good Old Gold on a 1.05ct solitaire.

Double claws - again by DKJ.

Tiny little claws by Good Old Gold.

Perfect claws - by Victor Canera.

Somewhat more substantial claws - as this diamond was around 5.3ct. Setting and claws by Brian Gavin Diamonds.

Larger claws by DKJ - but beautifully even and part of the design. Next to it is Cassie Van Bebber's stunning Dahlia design and her amazing minute claws.

And lastly - the tiniest claws I've ever 'seen' - and I put 'seen' in inverted commas here because, honestly, in real life, they were so tiny, you *couldn't* see them: by D.Vatche. This diamond was only 6mm across, so those claws were around 1/3 of a mm each. Unbelievable.

I hope this helps!

ETA @CalliopeCladdagh, you have to click on each image to get full resolution, and you'll need that to see how delicate and precise some of these claws are!

Your jewellery is all beautiful but that Beloved solitaire is just FANTASTIC

ps. I just realised PS didn't correctly post the rest of my original message, it was more than just a random "please" haha. Too late to edit now...
