Doesn't take misery to be in the fraud business. Greed is sadly blind to economic condition.
Got ya
This is the one. Your ideas are clear, and you have extensively searched for natural porcelanous pearls that do work well with the settings you had in mind. Hopefully, as mentioned above, you are able to set the 'Yellow Melo' side with missing section of outer layer down.
Hi there. Yes, you are correct. I did consider pendant because of this dilemma. I just posted on the conch thread. I used B6000 for glueing. She is secure but I made some changes.
Yes it is much better looking in person. I tried with and without flash. The actual color is not as light, yellow but leaning to orange as well. I just took some pics but have not really inspected what area I will set exposed. He sent IGI,, or something like that, not home but will check it out when I get back. Not AIG, but can’t remember .
The fourth pic is the closest to the color of Melo Yellow. But in different lighting it shows different shades of yellow. Pretty cool pearl. Feels like the conch pearls, like I am touching porcelain.
Thank you. I just sent it to you in message.
i concur. The simulated silver coral looks a bit much. Still figuring it out. Took these pics below in natural light. The other ones were indoors. First one is the back side, which actually I like better.
Actually, come to find out that what I thought was the back part is actually the front. The ring was absolutely not what I hoped for. It sat about half inch from the finger. I took the shells out and left one, but nope, still looked bad. I feel it much safer on a pendant anyhow. Still working on that later.
You have the advantage. We haven't seen clear enough photos to determine back vs. front vs. top vs. bottom, mostly the pearl appears to be uniformly lustrous under varied lighting conditions, with an attractive creamy-orange color. There was that one apparent missing section of the top surface layer in one photo, otherwise a setting that exposes the majority of the pearl surface should work.
