Clementine, I think the confusion is that the diamonds were used in a different configuration - not laid horizontally. I cannot see the half moon diamonds at all. I wonder if some of our fellow posters who are expert with photo software would be able to reposition the diamonds from the presentation formation to enable us to see if they could be the ones in the brooch. At the very least I am convinced that there are 3 very large extremely fine diamonds in the brooch. The border of small diamonds gives an impression of more closely matched height.
--Previous Message-- : Sorry, but I am not 100% convinced. I looked : again the brooch suggested by Franck and two : things puzzle me. : First of all, the main stone seems to me : more long-limbed/rectangular in the picture : posted by Nellie. In the brooch, the central : diamond looks more square shaped. Besides, I : have the same feeling for the two 'medium : sized' diamonds. : Secondly, the half moon diamonds. When you : look at the brooch, you can see that their : height is slightly lower than the diamonds : next to them. In the picture posted by : Nellie, the 'medium sized' diamonds are : oriented horizontally. OK. But it's easy to : see that the longest side is of the same : lenght (height when oriented vertically) : than the half moon stones. And even, maybe, : slightly longer : What do you think ? : : : : :
