Let''s try this link to a HOF pendant. We just got a new computer and it''s being tricky about posting pics from the internet.

Thanks for the link, but I''m afraid the halo will be bigger than the Lucida.
The other half''s birthstone is aquamarine. I know I said I didn''t care for pear-shaped cuts. But, what do you think of inverting the Lucida and dropping a per-shape aqua from it? That way, I''d have something old and something blue. Plus, it''d combine our birthstones.

hey harriette! have you ever thought of a riveria necklace with a not to large tcw so that you just have a line of sparkle? it can be dressed up or down if you stay small and it would look great with just your studs, a nice tennis bracelet and a diamond eternity band when you want to be looking good but not fussy.
i had two quotes from signed pieces for a four and five carat necklace in platinum and it was not too bad. i looked in my file and i could not find the quotes but i''m sure if it might be something you were interested in they will be happy to give you one.

sort of like a tennis bracelet around your neck but graduated. don''t you remember the large carat size necklace a group of women went together and bought a couple of years age. they each had an alloted time period to wear it before passing it to the next.
i also talked to whiteflash and they can make it also. i only mentioned signed pieces since i think i got the best price from them. but who knows now, if you like them ask both. i have purchased from both and can recommend either.

Hey Harriet,
I had a look around at websites and the stores here, even tried some on and trying to imagine how they'd look on you and yr HW earrings (not an easy task!
) and finally came to the conclusion that anything with an intrincate design would totally take away from yr beautiful ring, perhaps clash with the HW earrings and even yr dress (hope you don't mind my saying this). So I am thinking: keep it simple and elegant.
I like the idea of the riviera necklace.
Here are a few more ideas:
1) wear your pearl necklace, re-customised to accomodate a diamond pendant drop, perhaps with smaller pave. The drop can be pear-shaped or RB.
2) a diamond necklace with equal sized diamonds, but the diamonds should be smaller so as to be delicate whilst remaining blingy enough. But it would have a Tahiti pearl hanging from it, perhaps longish tending towards the shape of a drop of water (i.e not perfectly round). Not sure how much this would cost, prob on the higher side.
3) diamond necklace as above on its own.
4) diamond necklace with the pear-shaped aquamarine stone, like you're thinking.
5) just the pearl necklace alone, like you've already thought.
I was wondering, since you're having different receptions and are thinking of wearing different dresses (are you?), the necklace would depend on what you'll be wearing (the type/ style of the dress and not just the neckline). Would you not want to interchange the HW drops with yr studs ((both beatiful but carry slightly different looks). Also, would you be wearing the whole ensemble (the ring is a given, as is the watch, but the earrings and the necklace can change depending on the occassion/ the dress - do you not think?). Also, if a reception is a smaller event and you're wearing a shorter more streamlined dress then perhaps just the pearls by themselves or even if you go sans necklace, that'd be acceptable, even more preferable. Just my 2 cents.
I'd suggest that you go to the stores and try on a few necklaces / pendants on, with yr HW earrings (do you have them yet?) , yr pearls, yr studs, dresses that are as close as possible to the actual dress(es) you'd be wearing on the day (the latter I realise might be difficult) and see if you'd like the whole look.
Btw, it'd also depend on yr hair. How will you be wearing yr hair? Up or down? How long is yr hair? Will you be wearing a tiara? a hat? a veil? How will they look like?

LienTN,
Whoa again! Thanks for the due diligence. I like the idea of going sans necklace or with my pearl necklace (perhaps with an addition). More moolah for Huvanfen Fushi that way.
I have a pretty chic bob (or so I think
), and will wear my hair as per normal. I want to be comfortable for my wedding!

oh diamondfan, that is one great looking necklace! i am afraid it is out of my price range and two large for my lifestyle but i love it just the same. i would love to see it on someones''s neck.
harriette, i got caught up in the necklace talk and really did not think of it as a wedding piece (my stupidity). as has been discussed before you might even prefer no necklace depending on the choice of your dress and the hw earrings you will be wearing. i really got off on a brain tangent and was actually thinking of an overall good piece to have. you have lots of time to acquire more diamonds when wedding things aren''t top priority.

I was looking for something sizeable, but am not a huge fan of Rivieras...I think I might get tired of it. In a much smaller, more delicate and wearable size, it would be fine, but though of course it is gorgeous it lacks a design element that I like...but his stuff is quite incredible...I think they are great as an everything but formal necklace when they are smaller...

When I spoke to him he was not totally sure. I think it was btwn 35-40 carats. I have no occasion coming in the near future, my next one is about 18 months from now, but I did get a little something from hubby anyway
which was so nice. I love the shared necklace story, but what if you wanted it and it was not your "turn"? And what if you lost it when it was in your possession? But really I think it is a great way to get a nice necklace or other bling...smart thinking!
df i could never get in a`shared deal like that. i also enjoyed the story but i see too many problems with such an arrangement.
harriette i have seen very few. they do have wg versions in the jewelry case at macy''s in my little remote area of the world. wf was able to send me pics from a catalogue that showed different sizes. they were so so for seeing what you wanted. i just decided that i wanted four or five tcw since my tennis bracelet is five and being sixteen inches instead of about 7 i thought the diamonds would just be sparkly and wearable often.
