    Pattye, they look amazing on you! And I love the size. I don't regret buying smaller pearls as I did not break my budget but someday I will add larger pearls if they become available again.

    Your views on a Practical Pearl Ring

    I like the idea of the higher sides on the first photo. Almost, but not quite, a channel set pearl. Is the drawing a bezel setting for a pearl? I love the look of bezels! My wedding ring is a 3 stone ring of 2 bezeled sapphires and a bezeled diamond. One setting that I remember being...
