Yesterday I went back to the jeweler to show him my issue w/the turning. He immediately saw there was a problem and was very helpful. Thanks to a few adjustments and a heavier chain, the pendant is now perfect! My mom would've loved it

I'm happy you got it all fixed. Wear it well.

Your basket narrows towards the base, and the back of the bail sticks out quite a lot. I think those two factors, and not the chain, are what's making it twist. I'd try to be sure that the back of the bail didn't stick out further than the basket: I'd bet that's the issue.

That said, GORGEOUS pendant! I absolutely adore pears. That one has a wonderful shape, and it looks ENORMOUS on you. Do you know what the stats are, by any chance? Pure curiousity ....

i agree!

Congratulations, what a gorgeous pendant. I'm glad the heavier chain did the trick.

Have you told the jeweler about your problem?
They might have an solution.

 

[einseine]

Woops, your problem has already solved and now it's a perfect pendant!!!
Congratulations!

Thanks! The jeweler changed it a bit to fix the problem. He made the bail opening much narrower, decreased the size of the loops connecting the diamond to the bail, and did a few other adjustments I can't seem to remember. The heavier chain does help, but I purchased it more for security. Although I did get insurance on the diamond, I don't want to lose it because of a broken chain!
