The TSV is too large a stone for me, so it's a pass. Carmel said at the launch that she wore one out to dinner recently in Turkey, and the waiter commented to her husband, "You must be very rich." Well, that kind of attention I wouldn't like. What irks me is when they don't show or tell you the type of backing on an earring. Leverback, post and butterfly, creole, post and omega. Post and omega is my favourite as there's no fiddly bits to lose. (post with flippy-uppy-thingmy that rests on the back of the earlobe!) See, much easier to show than to say ;-)
