Brand new rose cut heart bracelet and pendant charm, stone and setting by CvB.
LT: https://loupetroop.com/listings/nec...nt-with-bracelet-stone-slash-setting-from-cvb
I'd intended to gift this to a friend; unfortunately circumstances have changed rather drastically, and by extension it has some not-so-great associations for me right now... but it's a gorgeous stone in the most beautiful, most perfect setting that could have been made for it - it deserves to be worn and loved!!
This stone has a lovely high puffy crown, and Caysie did a marvellous job accentuating the heart shape. The bezel chubbs up the cheeks, slims the tail, and adds the little indent at the top to finish the outline, and the inside-only milgrain is a darling touch The charm is fully detachable - it can be hooked directly to the clasp, or the bracelet end can be threaded through the bail so the pendant slides over the three chains. The two outer chains are 1.6mm rolos and the center chain is a 1mm rolo - I love the look of multiple chains that drape over each other
One of the photos shows the underside of the pendant. Note that the back of the rose cut is inset from the lip of the bezel - this ensures the stone doesn't ever sit directly on skin, which completely eliminates the dreaded Magnification By Convex Rose Cut problem... This whole piece is just so delightfully sweet and feminine *and* well-executed!
Loose stone description from Caysie's original listing:
> Nice chunky cut with a beautiful make, J-K color with some microscopic carbon near the top right “lobe” which I’ll dream the clarity at an SI2 since it’s not visible at all by the naked eye.
The stone is completely eye-clean in-person, and not a whiff of haziness.
Loose stone: 0.70 ct, 6.35mm x 6.04mm x 2.01mm (the characteristically huge face-up that rose cuts are awesome for!!)
Bezel: 8mm wide, 10mm high incuding "jump loop" at the top of the heart (not including the large oval bail)
Three-chain bracelet: 6.5" long including clasp
All metal components (bezel & bail, chains, clasp) are 14k nickel-free WG
