I finished mounting a pendant and a ring with the Chrysoprase Marquise cabs I cabbed last week late last night. We had to watch some of the grands today so if all goes well tomorrow I'll have finished the earwires to complete the set. No sun today I'll try to get better pics tomorrow if sun is out.    39don |

Absolutely agree with Frank, great photography only surpassed by your wonderful workmanship.  Super color you have fot there. It looks like I'm going color-blind to ever have mistaken it for Ivory. :) |

Don, Once more you out-did yourself! I like the other-worldly effect the settings have - looks almost outerspace/futuristic melded with Victorian...Ahhh steampunk! |

Really, really pretty! I especially like the first photo and your use of the gallery wire. It looks so good on this shape of cab.

I can't really tell........is the oval around the stone domed or flat........ It is supposed to be flat. I used 22 gauge on the ring and 26 gauge on the pendant. The ring is flater because of the heavier gauge. I guess I should have used a heavier gauge on the pendant cause it has some minor waviness to it. I'm still in training............. 39don |
