Little changes & Merry Christmas

14th December 2021 - Customer Location: Cairns

The pendant design to be used.

The pendant and earrings I am going to feature today are a great example of how customers refine even designs that I have made before to something exactly as they want it. The first change was quite simple, she wanted the above pendant but in all white gold.

The clip hoop design to be used.

Next she wanted earrings to match that would go onto my clip hoops. I did some photos to explore getting that right and within the budget.

You will notice that the setting on the drops in the photoshop edit above are 4 claw. That is because it was actually after this stage the customer decided to use the 2 claw setting.

That said it still gave her an idea of the the size of her diamonds in relation to the clip hoops. The clip hoops would be smaller in diameter and narrower than my standard DE277 clip hoops. Time to make some earrings.

The finished pieces.

The drops feature a .15 carat round brilliant cut. The setting and clip hoops were created in 9ct Palladium white gold. The pendant and earring set will be worn on special day and after that she can swap out the drops for another design or wear the clip hoops on their own.

Merry Christmas!

This will be my last post for the year. I would like thank to all of my customers for their support during the year and wish them and their families all the best for 2022.
