    : Thank you for the wonderful photos Arthur and
    : Baxter. I can now see that the stones in the
    : upper section look like diamonds. I suspect
    : the setting is silver. I have long wondered
    : if the setting is Indian. If so, it is
    : possible that the stones are not faceted (as
    : used in traditional jewllery - there is a
    : special term for such diamonds, but my mind
    : is not working yet). That would explain the
    : lack of sparkle. These earrings seem to be
    : the Duchess' favourite pair.
