[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 160443, member: 2976"] Getting decent picture can often be challenging! I just finished that piece of unknown material from Hartz range in the square "Lighthouse" and it's a pearler! On any background darker than it, the stone does not look colourless but brilliant [i]silver[/i]. I reckon that some of the paler-coloured Lowmead stones would look fantastic done in that style. Would look great as a matched pair of earrings and I think that's what the bloke designed the cut for. But I've just tried to take a photo from every angle and in every combination of sunlight, shade, incandescent and fluroescent light and the camera simply refuses to see it even remotely as the eye sees it - it just sees an unremarkable square piece of glass. Not much point posting a photo of that one. Some pics do come out really well but a lot of the time the camera just can't seem to show the stone as it really is. [/QUOTE]
