These were photographed quickly with a hand held iPad. The glass is sitting on a sheet of clear glass raised 4 inches over a sheet of white paper. Light entering above and below. Outside in sun light, sun sitting low in sky so light angle is from side. Color reproduction accurate. Additional photos: www.flickr.com/photos/67205364@N06/sets/72157712143400251A DSLR w/macro would make a nice detail photo of this piece in this lighting.

Very nice! When I belonged to etsy (when etsy belonged to me), I took photos of my jewelry on a plain glass from a picture frame. I was frequently asked how I got such a neat effect. Similar to your setup, except that I took the photo from the side angle, so you could see the sides of the earrings etc, but could also see a slight reflection.
Your glass is tops!

Thanks Pat, it is a terrible fetish. So you have already discovered this trick ! It is easy to make the back ground out of focus in these arrangements Pat. Sure beats keeping the background clean especially if it is white. The light comes in from many directions too. Not to mention coming in thru the bottom of the glass. It was a full sun bright day with a fast shutter speed and sure did not require a tripod. I went back and checked shutter speeds. Way faster than imagined, f2.2 at 1/2653, 1/3205, 1/3846, 1/2849, etc. At that high speed no aggravating tripod needed !

Me and wife get together and make our own glass designs sometimes RocksInNJ. Man if I post one of her creations she has a spaz attack because I am getting credit for her stuff. We are very competitive lol, to the point of to much at times. She out sold me for years like 3 to 1 and belittled me about it, then I finally came up with a creation that out does her like 20 to 1 and she is paying dearly he he. I even let her put my creation on her site and she discounted it below my prices and they still buy from me ha ha. What comes around goes around/sweet revenge. In the end I lose, you know ladies....

That last one is especially nice. I almost thought it was stone. That was a Greek plate. It had wire, mesh, particles, and other things cast into it. It is a method I want to learn, the organic effect is attractive. More of it here off of the lap before tumbled:
