what are the different square(ish) cut Hearts and Arrows stones?

Who sells them online besides Good Old Gold?

Thank you.

what do people think of the Brellia line?

I think Brellia's are beautiful. Good Old Gold carries those. I do not know of anyone else who does.

Brellia's vs GOG's AVCs?

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Are you asking my opinion? If so, I have a very special LOVE for AVC's (and his round line of antique stones, AVR's). But some girls want a more modern stone and the Brellia would be nice for that. Do you know what style of settings she likes? If so, I might could advise you which stone would be better.

Believe it or not, I just found a GOG video comparing Brellia and AVC's! So you are not the first to ask this question!

Thanks! I watched that video. I'm thinking about making a stud earring pair set for her. trying to figure out which would look better / best.

I think there is something ering-esque about the Brellia line that does not translate as well into stud earrings as the AVC line. only thing is the Brellias and AVCs in the size range for studs seem to have some visible inclusions (they are SI1).

Do most people here think 5 mm x 5 mm is a good size for earring studs?

I already got her a H&A RBC diamond for the ering.

Looking to get some more gifts for her!

Trying to figure out which to get - asscher earring pairs vs. cushion cut earring pair (brellia vs. AVC). she does not like regular princess cut, and has a RBC stud set of earrings from her mother already.

The other thing is the AVCs seem a little more rectangular 1.04 to 1.06 l/w ratio compared to the cushion HA (brellias)

Okay, round e-ring stone, round stud earrings. I'd get her matching round diamonds for studs. Rounds work best for earrings, period, in my opinion. Square stones are harder to position right on the ears. If she had an antique stone for her e-ring, then I might go with some almost round AVC's. But truly, nothing is going to show up better than round brilliants on the ears and I would not go with cushion studs especially since her e-ring is round. GOG can match you up a pair of rb's, too!

Okay, already has rb studs? Then don't go with studs at all if she already has a nice size pair. If they are little, you can get a larger pair of rb's. I have an asscher ring, but I would never want asscher studs. They are too subtle for the ears.

How about diamond huggie hoops like these:

I guess someone purchased the Brelllia F SI1 .68 ct pair from GOG for earrings? Whoever did, please post your final results!
