I absolutely love this stone. The pictures taken tonight just doesn''t capture the fire and sparkle from this stone.

 

[mochi]

I have such a awful time taking pictures of the gemstones at nights!

Linda!!

I have no idea... I kindda like it in the LOGR setting, what do you think? The stone is cut a bit too deep for the setting, though, I wonder if they can still bezel it?

I wonder if it''ll work, though. Can they build the bezel higher??

 

[Linda W]

I am not sure if they can, I don''t own any of their settings. Perhaps Lauren can chime in or TL. You could probably call and ask them too. I do love it in that setting though. It is a knock out stone and setting. I really love it.

Maybe they will chime in and let me know. I do think it looks sweet in that setting also...

 

[Linda W]

I''ll say it does. The stone looks like it is on fire

Mochi, what a great stone!

Nice stone Mochi - what a sparkler!!

I''m not crazy about it in the LOGR though (don''t kill me

). I think that LOGR was really meant for a cushion, and I think an asscher just looks a bit awkward in there. I think Lauren had the same mounting and tried to put an asscher aqua in there, and it really didn''t work. I actually think a large round stone would work better in that mount if you can''t find a cushion.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!What an amazing stone!!!

 

[karee888]

i wondered who got this one. quite drool-worthy!!

 

[Linda W]

TL, what kind of setting would you recommend for Mochi??? Do they have settings specifically for Asschers at LOGR???

It really sparkles alot, I just wish there is a way to capture it. If I knew how to put it on youtube, I would!

I agree - there is a tiny gap where the setting curves out while the stone has straight sides.
