This was just a little exercise – I had requests for these two different styles of oval duos (the bottom jewels in this pic). And I had some “white opal” glass octagons nearby.
The lighting here was the same for both pics, and except for tiny variations it’s hard to avoid while processing, these ought to look very much the same except for the different colors on the larger ovals. And yet the eye sees a bit more difference. Maybe it’s the tiny aqua rhinestones – but the jewel combo “earring” on the left just seems brighter, even with the navy blue. And the amethyst combo on the right appears smokier, more antique.
I’ll be curious to see what other people think 🙂
(Yes, these are all available in my Etsy shop – separately anyway. If you don’t see them, just holler!)
