here are mine 1ct each set on white gold, 4 prongs, I don't remember the stats because I have them for very long, I have to look in my files. I do remember that they have a few inclusions. Sorry they are a little dirty.

Carat size is 0.85, 0.45 and 0.2?? The biggest one is E color and ideal cut in terms of HCA score, though it does not look so in this pic. lol The other two are perhaps G and normal excellent cut.:D All in the platinum 6-prong settings.

^nice that you have graduated sizes! do you have 3 holes in each ear? do you find the platinum settings to be heavy? a friend of mine just had hers re-set into WG because she couldn't take the weight of the platinum settings.

what type of settings do u have? I have screwbacks and they kill my ears when I try to put them on

screwbacks are from the devil. my mom had them, & never wore hers. I just had them re-set for her with LOCKING backs. my studs don't have anything special as far as a locking back or anything, but I don't wear them all the time either. the backs are large, & they fit tightly...I've never had a problem.

Mine were. I cannot tell by how they felt (they felt the same tbh), I only judged by their drooping. I recently found out that by putting elephant clips behind would have balanced the weight and they'd look up.

Here are mine.
Sorry photo on ear is blurry. Actually, the other photo is not too good either--I hope to get better at taking photos. Mine are 1.81 ctw (one is .90 and one is .91), they are hearts and arrows, AGS triple 0, ideal cut, H color, VS 2 clarity. They are Whiteflash.com ACA's (A Cut Above). This is really overkill for earrings but you can't imagine how they sparkle, in absolutely any light situation. The superb cut does that, but the other specs do not hurt.

They are set in white gold. They are four prong baskets. They have the push backs where you push them once and then you push them again to make them double secure. They are perfect and they are my forever earrings.
It's coming up on my birthday, when I will have had them for two years exactly. Thank you, hubby!

Here are mine, pics from the reference thread... need to take new ones as these don't justify the sparkly-ness IRL!

Not sure of the specs, I know they're WG setting but I really need to get my arse into gear and get them appraised and get the settings checked! Centre stone on the one of them turns!

Thanks and thanks to the other posters for their compliments also.

The backs have been very secure so far (fingers crossed). I sleep, shower and everything else in them.

^that's great to hear! my mom takes hers out when she gets home, & she doesn't wear them every day. I'm guessing hers should be safe.

It was given to me as a set.. but it's a different kind of pave! No idea what it's all called.. might need to take pictures and get you experts to chime in! :sweatdrop:

It is pretty awesome isn't it! :heart: When I first got them I wore it everyday without a care in the world! It wasn't until I took pictures of them that I realised how precious they are and since one of the stones started turning, I got so paranoid that it'll fall out that I now only wear them on special occasions. Even then, I'd keep checking every 5 seconds that they're still there! hahaha

awww...that's a shame, but I understand. maybe when you go to your jeweler to have the prongs checked/tightened, you could get some larger earring backs that fit onto the post tighter. maybe then you'll feel more secure & wear them more often.
