I had not thought through the issues Nellie. You are spot on - that would only confuse things.
--Previous Message-- : : Please don't let this case be confused - : forever - by photoshopping! : Please! : : I agree that the half moons are not used - : and they would be perfect for a necklace : clasp. The hunt is on. : : : --Previous Message-- : 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 ? : : : : : : : : :
