Wow, Elle. That really stinks. Thoughts go out to the person''s family, though. I think that having a friend/family member die of suicide is probably one of the worst ways for them to go as far as the survivors go.

Agreed. It''s terribly sad.

 

[AustenNut]

Thanks for the head''s up, Mamma Hawk. I''ll see there are any pictures left floating on the ''net.

VC - You around?

J just sent this pic up - this is the view from his office.

Someone just jumped from the Wash/4th structure and killed themselves.

If J had not been in a meeting, he may have seen it.

Holy sh!t.

AN, I''m totally striking out on my search. But what I might suggest to you is try on eternity bands having shared prong and prong set bands with bezel solitaires...if you can get the solitaire to sit close enough, you may be able to picture what it looks like with the bezel on the same shank as the diamond band. Just a crazy thought! (I also really like the bead set you already posted in SMTR)

OK this is messed up. I just googled "Ann Arbor Suicide" and found an article...

Same day, same structre, same suicide.

2 years later.

OMG! Like a copy cat! That is creepy.

 

[AustenNut]

Wow, that is really creepy.

And thanks for the idea about trying on the bezel ring with a prong eternity ring. It may be the closest I can get to picturing this!

I wonder if they knew one another!

 

[hisdiamondgirl]

Thanks AN.

I spoke with WF and they are sending me pics of the 1.20. She recommended that one over the 1.21 because although the inclusions in the 1.21 are clear (not black) and therefore not really visible, they are still there, and there are a lot. So, it wouldn''t make sense to get the 1.21 since they are basically the same otherwise.

Elle, that is so terrible! How traumatizing!

 

[AustenNut]

I'm just looking at this picture, and am wondering, if this diamond was bezeled would it look funky? Or just fine?

ETA: Sorry this is huge! Had no idea it would be that bad!

Of course I will post them, my lovely little diamond experts

I also asked her to take pics of the 1.01 and 1.06 next to the 1.20 so I can see them all side by side. She is going to have the photog work on them this afternoon so I will post them as soon as I get them!

OMG, I''m so excited! I can''t believe I''m actually doing this!

Speaking of suicide:

Guess who just had to go pick up their child from daycare for using foul language?

I think it would look funky, but a good funky. I think, though, that because you have a cushion sapphire (which is STUNNING, btw...so glad you ended up falling in love with that stone!!!), anything is gonna look good funky cuz it''s slighly non-traditional.

Seriously, with that stone, I don''t think you can go wrong, as long as the bezel has an open profile to let plenty of light into the stone!

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

AN-What''s your reasoning for wanting the stone bezeled? I''m just wondering if there''s a better solution if you''re concerned about something with the setting. Personally I''m not a fan of the concept.

Ok, I have to go back to teaching. But I''ll be in the after-school program so I should have some opportunity to check back in. Thanks for your help, ladies!
