Tahitian Pendant

[MSC]

I got a few Tahitian pearls from Jersey a while ago and I just set one into a rose gold (plated) and CZ pendant setting and enhancer bail from gempacked. What do you all think? The color is a greenish-blue.

Beautiful colour and lustre on that pearl and I like the findings !

 

[amti]

Love that color!!! And the combo works great with the pearl!

 

[CathyKeshi]

Very lovely; kinda like them a lot better this way LOL:

 

[MSC]

Thanks for the flips, Cathy!!
Thanks, amti and kat! I was thinking the blue overshadowed the rose color.

 

[GemGeek]

My favorite color! And I love rose gold! I have some earring findings with similar end caps.

Neck shot!

Anytime, MSC, especially on a dreary dark snowy cold dismal afternoon You wouldn't think flipping would make such a difference, but sometimes it's enough to take your breath away; puts all the lights and shadows where they belong.

I LOVE those findings, and I love the Rose Gold against that bright and beautiful teal pearl; you can't go wrong when you choose from the other side of the color wheel.

i love rose gold, and i think that and the personality of that pearl are great together

Oh, MSC, that pearl looks amazing set this way! I can't wait to see what else you are going to do with them...but wow this came out nicely! I too love the teal and rose gold combo.

 

[pattye]

Yes! A beautiful combo!

 

[MSC]

Phew! Thanks y'all, I feel better about the choice now! I'll try to remember to take a neck shot in the AM

 

[newberry]

Just beautiful...pearl and setting. You did great !

 

[Pareltje]

I love it! Really good combo

 

[Katbran]

Thanks for the flips, Cathy!!
Thanks, amti and kat! I was thinking the blue overshadowed the rose color.

I don't think so..from the photo it makes both the colours pop ! Looks Fab! (JP picked you some nice ones I bet !! )

 

[Sanippy]

Ooh I love this pearl!! The blue green is gorgeous and I love its grooves. It looks beautiful set with rose gold.

 

[MSC]

Thank you, newberry, pareltje and hanadama! Jersey definitely picked out some gorgeous pearls for me I have a special project in mind for the rest.

Neck shots!

I love that enhancer and the pearl. Beautiful.

I actually prefer CZs to diamonds in earrings and enhancers because the diamonds used in these settings are usually small and dull, and the CZs usually sparkle like better diamonds.

 

[JerseyPearl]

MSC, you made my day with that neck shot...just wonderful! That is a great pearl...the colors are so vivid.
BWeaves, I agree...I'd much rather have a good sparkle on a small stone than a dull larger diamond. I have found that Bella does have some good little diamonds in the findings I've used...in particular, there is a gold bar set with tiny stones that sparkle like crazy. I made a diamond bar necklace for my daughters with them. Here is a photo:

That looks really nice, Jersey! So classic and modern. And those diamonds do really sparkle. I've encountered the low quality diamond issue with melee stones before as well, BWeaves. I wish more manufacturers would set gold with CZ, not just gold plated SS... I know a lot of Indian jewelers do this.

 

[CathyKeshi]

Wow, MSC, that neck shot really shows off the spectacular color of that pearl!
