Acinom I got side tracked with another dainty ring, will need to pace myself this year, so won't be setting my topaz suite till later.
Thank you Lovinggems!
Isn't it nice to get sidetracked every once in a while I am so curious to learn more about your dainty project!

I requested a quote for earrings yesterday, can't wait to hear back!

I love the outlines! To be able to combine that stone with hauynes and paraiba melee.
Your question is a difficult one as it is very personal. Personally I would choose outline A because of the sophisticated elegance. A glowy stone like that does not need much. Since I have old lady hands I might also consider outline B for a little more ring coverage.
Personally I would not consider C for this special center stone. The stone is too special to be overwhelmed.
There is no ugly option here though, so just listen to your heart. Now I am off to the Paraiba and Cuprian tourmaline thread to post your stone. Do you also have a pic of the melee?

You did!!! Is it for a pair of dangling earrings or studs? I love his 'ear jewelry'. Do you have an inspiration pic or will Alistair create a new design for you?
picante27|1455905808|3992970 said:Yes! delicate little drop earrings with the garnets set in that beautiful floret design! That would be so pretty. I'm still waiting for a response and will be sure to update!

And indeed, I love his 'sketches'. They are pieces of art in itself.

Hi LovesDogs - Thank you! I know, I love seeing his sketches too! So funny that he calls them rough sketches.
