Hi all--
I am going crazy, I have bought several stones in my newly-acquired colored-stone hobby, and have yet to set any of them. And I bought a LOGR pendant with which I am having a heck of a time finding a stone that fits! I decided to set the pendant with a blue zircon-- easier said than done. The pendant is a 7 by 11 pear, but when i measure it it seemed smaller than that. I may be able to go 7 by 10, but I tried a 7 by 9 from Jerry at gemart and it falls right through the setting so that won't work. I've looked at ajs gems, gemfix, multicolour, emailed Dana, and still having a lot of luck. Dana suggested I find a larger stone on ebay and have it recut, but the stones I am finding are pretty pricey to begin with.
Any ideas??
Thanks!
