I had posted earlier that Paul Slegers and Lieve Peeters (of Crafted by Infinity Diamonds) had sourced an 8.94 ctw parcel of 45 Fancy Intense Yellow round brilliant diamonds. The story of that and a video of the parcel are posted here:

36 diamonds (7.15 ctw) were used to make a beautiful 18K YG bracelet. Pictures and video of that bracelet are here:

I wasn’t going to waste the remaining 9 diamonds so they were set into a 14K WG pendant with 14K YG heads. It is a stock piece from Stuller that was modified by Wink’s wonderful bench to hold all 9 diamonds. The original design held 5 diamonds with only one stone at the bottom of each of the right “legs”. It was modified it to hold 2 and 3 stones each so it would look like a “spray of yellow diamonds”.
I am extremely happy with the results. This entire project of the FIY parcel, the bracelet, and now the pendant has been very exciting and enjoyable for me. I am eternally grateful to Wink, Paul, Lieve, and Melissa, and thank them all from the bottom of my heart.
