Thoughts on these two OEC stones?

[Queenie60]

Hi -I am considering purchasing an OEC for a pendant. I want a solitaire pendant with a millgrain bezel. I have no idea what to look for in an OEC and want to search around before making a purchase. Please let me know what you think about these two stones.

Appreciate your input.

I prefer the facet pattern of the second one. If you are going to bezel set I would want to know how the feather in the first one and chip in the second one would tolerate being bezeled. Good luck!

I have spoken with David and he is confident that a bezel would look nice with both of the stones and doesn't feel that the chip and feather will be a problem.

Prefer the second one as well.

Hey Queenie

I had a question for you...I saw that ID Jewelry is making a pendant for you? Is it for this OEC or is it for a stone you purchased
from them?

I tried to get a quote from them to mount an OEC in a pendant and they said they didnt want to do it. I accepted it as no problem
but I thought I had seen them set other people's outside stones...I think they may have been gem stones. Just wonder if they were
setting an OEC for you?

Thanks,
tyty
