In excellent condition, I cannot see a single mark on it.

Comes with S80-160 pouch, caps and hood as shown. No box sadly, but will be packaged carefully.

£240 + postage. Can be collected from Canary Wharf during office hours or SS9 at most other times if you prefer.

Quick update with some pictures of my efforts. After trying a few methods I preferred the results in the table top studio link above provided by PeteL.

I had an empty canvas frame and pulled a length of white cotton across the the frame to hang the items from. this was then positioned in front of some velvet affixed to the wall. I had a basic 35W light and the camera on a tripod. They were shot at 70mm with a Sigma 17-70 I recently acquired.

It was difficult to get pieces as I had to sit well in the light tent, so I felt this gave best results.

Would gladly accept comments of how to improve.

Cheers all. The home made light tent is ready to go. Just need to hunt some black velvet.

A colleague makes bespoke jewellery and I have agreed to help with the photography for a website they are producing.

They have pointed me in the direction of the below site as my 'inspiration'. They are after the same deep black background to the pieces.

I was nieve thinking that black card would do the job, the texture is miles out.

Any tips for recreating this effect would be greatly received. Is it likely these were photographed on a neutral background and PP'd?

Thanks
