    This post comes under, "Well, let's give it a shot.." I just got a
    phone call from Baltimore - we're in San Francisco. This gentleman
    was looking for someone to do a job. I told him to call me in the
    morning and I could help him more. If he does, well.... What he wants
    is a locket made with invisible setting on the lid, about 8 ct.s of
    goods. I know a few people who do invisible setting, but I'm just not
    sure they can make a locket that works with an invisible-set lid
    that's fine. As I told him, you could always just get a locket and
    stick a "plate" of invisible setting on the lid, but that's not
    really right, and making such a project properly is on another level
    of craftsmanship. This is a shot in the dark because I didn't even 
get
    his name and number. It sounded like he will call, because I said I
    would hook up the fax to get his art and like he had gotten solid
    "no's" all day. As I said, I know several people who do that work, 
but
    if anyone can, or knows anyone who can, do work like Cartier, I'd
    pass it on....
