  1. Wow, that last one: what if the thread broke or was dislodged? I would be afraid to wear it.

  4. Those are pretty, although a bit much. Nice to look at, wouldn't want to wear.

  5. Very glitzy, a groove around the diamond does seem a touch hazardous. Some beautiful craftsmanship on show I can imagine them being worn to a glittering ball.
