I recently had a query from a client requesting help to replace her GRB BELL earrings, which had disappeared. This is not the first time I have needed photographs for such communication, so I’ve made some rather casual shots of the current samples to show for such discussion & consideration. I did not take the time necessary for properly lighting the pieces to show them in a neutral view without some reflections & high contrasts, but they do show the ideas in useful detail.
