They're lovely stones in a really great size. Please don't change their mountings. I love the crown effect at the base of the baskets and those backs are about as interesting and novel as I've ever seen. The total package is an A+!

We finally have some sun - and I finally have a day off work! My photography skills still leave something to be desired but I think these give a better real life perspective on the stones :) Plus they are now clean, which always helps :oops:

Firstly, a few photos that show the colour of the studs - for comparison, my EC is an E and the baguettes are supposedly H.


In low light the colour difference is even greater:


One more with a different background:

And some of the studs by themselves...

They produce a LOT of fire!


And a couple of close-ups, showing their beautiful Kozibe magic:




Thanks for indulging me - it's so nice to finally have time to play with these little studs and enjoy them!

Lol Yss, I assume this comprehensive appraisal would involve a significant period of "road (ear) testing"?

Well, I would hate for you to think I didn't do a good job.
I'll send a shipping label, don't worry that it says destination overseas 8)

Well okay, but just make sure there are some "butterflies" with the shipping label. Fair's fair, you know.

Pancake, these are such beautiful stones that I just keep coming back to the thread. And I ADORE the graceful swoopiness of the settings!

Aw shucks... well, since I need minimal encouragement and you have provided me with more than that, here are a couple MORE pics:

Oh and Circe - when are we going to get to see pics of this magnificent Asscher band of yours? Hmmmm?

::deep sigh of satisfaction::

They're just so purty.

As for the band? As soon as I can get the sun to cooperate with my off-hours! This baby deserves some UV rays .... :geek:

This thread is my favorite of all time. I keep coming back to look at these Vanilla Twins.
Can I trouble you for more pics just because I'm a huge fan?

I remember these!! I visited them frequently when I was planning my OEC studs :love:

Just as gorgeous now as they were nine years ago. I wonder if Pancake still has them and is still enjoying them?

Indeed I still have them and have worn them without a break for the last decade :) I've recently returned to PS and am tickled that people enjoyed my jewelry so many years later!

I'm actually now about to reset these, they are with David Klass at the moment. If anyone would be willing to help me choose a setting, please hop over to Rocky Talky - I'm about to post there!
