Beautiful! Perfect pendant!

 

[Kelli]

Maan those arrows are stunning!

 

[Diamond*Dana]

What a gorgeous pendant, I love the bezel setting...and it really is a great size on you!

eggy1024: LOL, it''s such a vicious cycle, isn''t it? I got the itch to buy one of these from some posts a while ago, and now I''m passing it along...

cushioncutnut, Addy, girlie-girl, canuk-gal, coatimundi, Kelli, Diamond*Dana: Thank you! I am still loving everything about this piece!

Since the sun decided to come out today, I thought I''d take some random pictures of the pendant.

Here''s me firing up the ol'' ultrasonic (didn''t know you could get ''em that size, didja?).

joflier, jcrow, poshpepper, elle_chris, AprilBaby, icekid, vita*dolce, omieluv, mommy2iz, Skippy123, Jelly, Maisie, geckodani, gemgirl, Catmom, SanDiegoLady, Miranda, MC: Thanks for the compliments! Whiteflash did a great job with it the pendant (I love them too, SDLady... and your pretty martini too!), and it is indeed a classic, beautiful piece and I love the ACA. I don''t know how I ever ''survived'' without it before!

TanDogMom: yes, your posts really helped (it was like you were having the decision debate for me!). The martini setting is beautiful as well, and it''s possible I would have picked that if I had bought a bigger stone (big plus about the bezel is that it makes the 0.321 ct look as big as my 0.5 princess!). I saw on your other thread (with that beautiful blue sapphire!) that you got a new camera... any chances we''ll see more pics of your martini pendant?

kcoursolle: yeah, I thought it was pretty cool how our pendants look so alike (maybe BN also uses the Stuller setting? Hmm... probably not, since the bezel backs look different). I''d definitely ask WF about the Stuller settings if you''re interested in the future. I guess they have other ''in-stock'' choices that aren''t listed on their website!

Sure! It is so much easier to get jewelry pics with the new camera! The main reason is that it came with a software that lets me crop, and I couldn''t do that before. So I can take a pic from far away and then crop it to focus in on the jewelry. I''d be happy to take some more of the pendant but I will probably wait until my sapphire ring comes and take all the pics at once. Stay tuned! I agree the bezel is such a great size enhancer! I love yours!

 

[chiquitapet]

Beautiful bezel!!! It looks perfect on you!!

 

[MMT]

YOur necklace is gorgeous and your pictures are hilarious

 

[elsie]

Fly Girl, MonkeyPie, chiquitapet, MMT -- Thank you! I''m glad you enjoyed the pictures. Nice to know you share my warped sense of humor.

TanDogMom -- Great! I look forward to seeing more pics of your pendant. I do love how it looks like it''s floating... perhaps I''ll be motivated to start saving up for one of those once I see your pics.

Can''t wait to see how the sapphire ring looks as well -- I love blue sapphires, and yours is such a lovely, perfect shade of blue... (sigh)!

Darn it! Between this beautiful pendent and the stacking rings thread, I''m in real trouble. It''s absolutely lovely.

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Wow, your pics are just gorgeous! Love the bezel ACAs - I''m dying for one of my own!

pjean -- yeah, I know! Sometimes I just have to take a break from PS or my bank account starts sweating...

Thanks for the compliment!

Thanks, Lauren! I don''t think I''ve ever mentioned it, but I''ve admired your ring for as long as I''ve been on PS (so pretty!). The ACAs are surprisingly affordable (well, for a 0.321 ct at least) -- you should go for it! (And then come back and post pics...)

 

[Burk]

It''s fabulous. I love the new pics....too cute!

 

[oneam]

Hi,

Your pendant is perfect. I just rec''d one I had ordered from BN, but I think I might need to exchange it for an 18" chain. Can you tell me what length yours is?

Thanks, Elsie - you''re so sweet!!!!!

I LOVE the latest pics - so clever! Makes me want to go out and buy some miniatures as props for my jewelry!!!

 

[Miranda]

Hahahahaha! Your new pics are so funny!

 

[elsie]

Hi (again) Burk, Lauren, and Miranda! I did have a lot of fun with the pics. Those toys are actually really old (like, 25+ years old), from a box of stuff I found from my childhood. Guess those things come in handy! (And are good entertainment if you don''t have pretty flowers to complement your sparkly diamonds).

Hi oneam!

Thanks for the compliment! My chain is 16"... I find it a pretty good length, but wouldn''t mind if it was a tad bit shorter. How do you like your BN pendant?

 

[oneam]

Hi Elsie,

Thanks for the info. Hmm... the 16" looks longer on you than it did on me. It seemed like a choker almost on me, and I have another pendant that''s 16" in a similar size so I sent it back to exchange for the 18". This type of pendant seems to ride up on me so the 16" bezel seemed shorter than my 16" bail-style pendant. I really love it, can''t wait to get it back. I had a $100 coupon also and I''d seen various bezel pendants here and decided I had to have one

Enjoy yours, its'' a beauty!

 

[Love in Bloom]

Ooooh, it''s so sparkly and looks just perfect on you!

 

[elsie]

oneam -- that''s odd that the same length looks so different (I guess it might be a combination in differences with the clasp and bail vs. bezel differences?) Almost seems like women''s clothing -- sizes on different brands aren''t guaranteed to be the same! (Although 16" should be sorta universal...

) Have you received your pendant back yet? I''d love to see if it you''ve got pics!

Thanks, Love In Bloom! The sparkliness is one of my favorite things about it.

 

[oneam]

Hi Elsie,

Yes, it''s strange. In your photo, yours looks like it sits about 1 1/2" lower than mine did on me. It should arrive tomorrow but I think I''ll take it to my jeweler right away and have him add a jump ring so I can wear it at 17" also, so I still won''t have it for another week or so - I can''t stand it!

 

[Skippy123]

Gorgeous, love it!

 

[Deelight]

Beautiful pendant simple and classic, I so need one of these

 

[Carrots]

it looks very good on you!
