Can they really finish this into a half moon?  If so, pair with another half moon, yellow or colorless,  microset to make one full round with a melee stripe down the center separating them.  Yin Yang so to speak, like those cookies that are half chocolate and half vanilla.   


David, how much would a ring cost to do this matching idea?  Assuming that it's doable.   

O-O-O-O!  The more I think about this yin yang design, the more I want it as a pendant to wear with my brown RB three stone ring.

WG with colorless melee and a colorless half moon to go with the brown.  Use Hal #2 for the halo and prong set. YES!

I could wear my brown earrings or my colorless earrings.  Cool! 

Let's see if that was going to be a one carat, then it's probably about 6mm in diameter.  That would make a pendant about 9mm. .... on a DBTY.   NICE!

    

Wow, that's a real shame...

However, I do love Sparkly's idea!

I had considered mounting the two diamond half moons flush, but didn't know if the light reflecting from the brown would make the colorless diamond look odd or decrease the contrast between the two halves.  Hence, the strip down the middle.

Here's the photo...



And what a bummer!

Yeah, I haven't had attachment capability since the avatarz got fixed.  Poor Annie spent half her morning acquainting me with photobucket.

What a cool ring!!
I could see us using the part of the stone that's left.
007 did mention that he was thinking 1/2 moon for the part that's left.

AS far as "the occurrence"
It's valuable to the conversation.
For one thing, it's shows that the possibility does exist.
These guys are all very good- I believe there was an imperfection involved in the explosion......
If we are going to offer pieces of rough- and the cutting services, we'll need to have a contingency plan for this type of possibility.

That's the one OMC!

oh no... go away for a bit and kaboom!  I hope this can be salvaged, I love the idea of a yin/yang setting. 

That's a cruel tease for someone in another time zone...

I wanna SEEEEEEEEEE!

Aw..now I feel guilty ( not too guilty though...heheh)

These old style cushions are my absolute favorite cut!  I can't wait to see what you end up getting in. 

    I just knew it.
