Kismet, I love that garnet pendant!


I''m curious to see pendants because I''m thinking of getting a graduation pendant instead of a class ring. It''s still a long time till graduation, but I figure I might as well start looking for ideas now, and give myself plenty of time to find my perfect stone and setting

You''re in med school, right? What year are you? I got a lighter tsav garnet as my grad present to me, from me

(diamond studs from parents and hubby) I still cannot decide how to set it though. The original plan was pendant, but I am soooo indecisive.

Yup, I''m an M1 at the moment, but judging from the threads in this forum, it might just take me a few years to find the stone I''m looking for! Haha. Actually, I LOVE the color of your sapphire, I wonder if spinel comes in that color?
I''m going with a pendant because I figure I can''t wear my rings to work much after I graduate (what with the latex gloves and the constant, constant hand washing), but I can wear a pendant! I''ve never really gotten (or wanted) anything in the way of graduation gifts, but I feel like med school graduation deserves a special something since it''ll be the end to my years of formal education

MTG- Depending on what you go into, you can probably get away with wearing rings at least sometimes. I more or less always wear my e-ring/wedding band unless I''m overnight call. And I wear my sapphire sometimes, too... if I know there is no chance that I''ll be involved in a code or anything! I agree with you on med school grad deserving something nice- it was the first time I felt like I had REALLY accomplished something (and then you get your butt kicked as an intern, but whatever

)


Catmom- as always, stunning collection. I am so in love with your new tsav pendant.

LovingDiamonds- holy crap!

I love your pendant fly girl- it is so elegant. In my opinion the design is a tiny bit reminiscent of an anchor, and with the sea colored stone it just works so beautifully.

Thanks, mousey. I hadn''t thought about it looking like an anchor, but that is very cool. The designer often uses oriental themes, so I think of it as looking at bit like part of a pagoda.

TL - My orange diamond is 0.15 ct. I probably edited that in after your post. It was the smallest, but best colored and sparkliest of several eBay purchases I made several years ago, in my pre-PS days. The rest of the diamonds are not worthy of being set, so I learned my lesson there. I love how the designer worked my stones into the design. I have learned that design is not my strong suit.

Love DiaDiva's halo pendant
Is there somewhere I could go to get a feel for how much a small halo setting would cost?

Thanks, Chrono. I don't actually have any chains that are soldered onto the pendants. All my chains are interchangeable with any pendant (depending on the size of the bale).

Sorry...can''t help you there MTG because I''m in Singapore and so is my jeweller.

 

[MakingTheGrade]

Ooo, Singapore is love Hope I get to go back one day! Last time I went I was a teenager, and all I remember is that it''s really clean and there''s a statue of a mer-lion somewhere.
