Jen - Thanks for the sweet comment! In terms of size comparisons, the onyx is the size of the medium, but the mini is actually still a bit smaller than the pave in mine....I guess to put it in perspective, my pave has 9 diamonds on the largest part of the petal and the mini had 5 if I remember correctly.
Cartier orchid line?

Bitten - The mini is pretty small, less than half an inch for sure. I took one home initially, but ended up exchanging it. Was trying to find some modelling pics but I think I deleted them.
Jen - Can't wait to see some pictures! I've been stalking this thread waiting for pics too.
Here's a little something while we wait for the pics.
gorgeous!!! good to know for the size comparison. the pave on yours looks perfect, I imagine the mini would be so tiny! the onyx looks great on you!! I think I will put away in my notes for future reference that the medium looks like the perfect size
jen, are you going to model the one-diamond for us too??
I've tried on the ring and it is GORGEOUS. However the orchids on the ring were too large for my hand and looked gaudy so I didn't buy it. The husband said it looked ridiculous. But earrings...hmmm....
omg one more sleep till friday...and you know what may happen on friday.....orchid necklace pictures!!!! LOL

Thanks for the info. Sounds beautiful!
I know, I think it is subtle and a bit 'in-the-know' if you know what I mean? Which I really like
Ok from what queen is saying, it's around 1cm across - I see what you're saying about how it would look like a large solitaire from a distance until you get up close to see the detail...I'm not put off by that I have to say! I've had so much difficulty finding a pendant/necklace but maybe this could finally be the one??!!
Oy, I should just focus on yellow diamonds right now...
whether you're focusing on cartier paved orchids or yellow diamonds. either way you are not hurtingI know, I think it is subtle and a bit 'in-the-know' if you know what I mean? Which I really like

Oh, but I am my friend, I am...
YAYAYAYAY! I know!!! So excited, ring AND orchid!!! It'll be ready as of 2:00... happy day!!
Bitten I'll see if she'll let me model the mini for you! It isn't TOO small but yeah, I definitely think Queen is right - hers looks a bit bigger than the mini and smaller than the medium.
There are a pair of orchid earrings in the boutique too so I'll try to photograph them - I think they are the same size as the medium pendant and SO PRETTY!!
YAYAYAY!!!
LOL... if you're crazy like me you get both! Yikes... been so bad lately!!! But they are SO PRETTY!!!
Okay will definitely try to photograph the small one for you!! Wish me luck!
You will officially be my hero
I just can't get up the courage to take pics in store...it's weird, I know other people do it so it's not unheard of...I'm just a wuss :shame:Candice, they are holding me down and blinding me with their sparkliness...it is SO BAD!!
