Who loves Emeralds!!!

aka.. the story of two burs and a saw blade and a big old pair of brass cahoona's...

Thought I would create a post of my emerald jobs.. jewellers love to see these.. everyone breathes a sigh of relief that it didn't cross his bench...

This was a handmake and set by moi... sweating blood...







ANd this one was a recent head remake and reset.. not sure why I keep punishing myself and setting these myself...











And this is the part that gives setters the sweaty nightmares....
(ever hear them green stones go Keerunch!)



And this a was quicky sizing, I happened to have the images to show somone else the soldering goop i use..

Pretty in Pink.

A love job for a friend, who is making it for his daughter :)

4pp natural pink argyle diamonds... if need to ask how much they cost you probably don't want to know...
