Commissioned Piece


Along with the flower citrine shown in the week 5 YOJ post I had this beautiful 11.93 Trillion cut Madiera citrine to create a setting for. After studing the stone and musing over it several times I opted to set it in the shield position. Didn't do any fancy open work with this one even though I did think about it.

Ah - love this one too! :) Love the depth of the setting - very high walls. REALLY nice. :)

I thank you again Janice! Yeah, had to go with the high walls. This puppy is really deep from the top to the point on the back. If the setting isn't deep enough the pendant won't lay right when being worn.
