Once again - thank you so much LauraM. I am having fun trying to visualise the necklace. --Previous Message-- : It is difficult to describe but there are a : total of nine cabochon drop elements. Each : drop element has a mix of small and large : stones. Visualize a line descending from a : diamond on the bottom edge moving to a : smaller cabochon then the next in line is : what appears to be several diamonds closely : set to create a vertical rectangle link : which connects with the larger terminal : cabochon. : : As the drop elements move from the left to : the centre drop element and from the right : to the centre drop element, the terminal : cabochons get larger. : : The central drop element is unique. From the : diamond which is part of the bottom fringe : we have from top to bottom: medium diamond, : small diamond, larger medium diamond, : platinum link, vertically set rectangular : cabochon, vertical rectangular diamond, : terminal large and largest cabochon. : :
