So here is what I have so far. The gold is a little pale, but once polished it will pop in color. The stones are not set yet, but just resting in the settings. The pink pendant I'm thinking will have another ring of the rope silver then another of gold, and then another ring of rope silver around the very edge of the piece, so there will be the flat plain of silver in the middle. I thought this would solve several problems: 1) Making the pendant bigger to fit the size of the chain (which is 4mm). 2) Matching the earrings in style. 3) That final ring of silver will give the piece a much more finished look and protect the flat silver from getting scratches.
I have been really up in the air about the final touches on this piece. I think the thing I will do is add more gold wire to the pendants edge but only at the corners. I can then hammer the wire out a little so it will get a little thicker at each of the four points. I don't know. We'll see.
