Presenting . . . FLEUR d'ORLEANS


Two weeks ago I blogged on
"ONE VERY SPECIAL PROJECT COMIN' UP!" .. This project is inspired by the FLEUR de LYS. R tells me it holds very special meaning for her.. it had been a time and a place somewhere in New Orleans .. it must be very special .. she remembers the Fleur de Lys on the wrought iron gate ..



... hence >>>



Ladies, Presenting to you . . . FLEUR d'ORLEANS ..



Her Stats ..

18K solid White Gold
11x9mm H color Asscher (KRUPP-inspired cut), 4-split prong
Fleur de lys motif, milgrained, on N/S side of basket, with diamond rb on each center of the FDL
graduating ~1.25tcw blue natural sapphires , bezel set half eternity band
~2.75mm rounded band

The SPARKLINGLIZZIE rectangular Asscher, inspired by the KRUPP cut is just amazing .. this is really a case of where 'Lush and Blush do not mix' !

Here are some photos I took before the bezels were milgrained.. enjoy !





Taken in the morning SINGAPORE sun :)
