Went to mount these cabs in the findings I had gotten for them and broke not one but 2 prongs. Decided it just wasn't meant to be and needed to finish these for someone. Finally had to glue on bails but I think they look nice anyway. He loved them! Will be giving them to his wife this weekend for their anniversary.  Never can get lapis to show up as pretty as it is but you get the picture.  Thanks for looking, Fran |

The sizes are perfect paired together. I love how lapis shows its blues with silver

Better without prongs anyway - your eye focuses on the beauty of the whole stone.

I agree with jukerocks--sometimes simplest is best. The stones are stunning.

I agree Fran, they are beautiful!!! The pictures are a tiny bit blurry but I can tell it's way better quality than any lapis I've had the pleasure of working. I love your sets, you nail the consistent shapes so perfectly! I'm jealous!!!!

Yup, you can't beat simple with you have such a beautiful stone so nicely shaped and expertly shined. Top notch work, Fran!

Beauties, Fran!! It's hard to beat lapis for anything, and you scale them so nicely! My ear rings usually look like lump and lumpy, lol. T
