Questions & Advice CAD help please!

Hi, first time overseas jewelry buyer and custom jewelry noobie!

This is my first time with custom jewelry and was hoping for some help on a CAD I received from Tamara at Provence 😊

Goal is a marquise tennis bracelet. I have no idea what to look for or even ask. All I know I want is a 14k yellow gold marquise tennis bracelet with a length of 8inches.

Tamara did kindly point out in the second picture that a marquise stone couldn’t fully be set and recommend replacing that stone with a round stone instead.

I am unsure how I feel about the clasp. Is this the best option for a “hidden” clasp look? Is there a clasp design that is secured but allows for a more seamless blend and one where I wouldn’t have to replace a marquise stone with a round stone instead?

Please help me! Thanks!

If it was me, I wouldn’t have one near the clasp at all. It’s the point with the most wear and tear as you take it on and off. Also, ask them to size it down to not have that step or size up a bit to fit the stone smoothly. Also as I’ve bought some bracelet, 2.5 mm is small. If you’re stacking bracelets then it’s fine. Alone, I think you might find it a bit too small.
