Mochi,
Do you detect any blue tones in that pink? Your camera is picking up a couple unusual blue areas in the pink. I''ve heard of only 1 other pink spinel that does this.

Hello Chrono...

It looks more lavenderish, I think. Is that bad? It does glow...

No, not bad at all. Lavender is good and fine. I was actually hoping it really had a blue colour that ''moved'' within the spinel. It would be a very unusual characteristic and something worth keeping as a collection stone.

Will, it''s a bluish/lavenderish glow within the stone, I guess. It''s very pretty, I was pleasently surprised.

I asked Barry about that stone a long time ago. I asked him if it glowed and if it had blue in it. He never got back to me (I think my email must have been gobbled up because he ALWAYS gets back to me). Well it looks like I was right about the stone. Enjoy, it''s lovely!

He had it on his site awhile, hasn''t he, TL? Because I noticed it a couple of months ago. Just let me know when you''re missing it, I''ll take some pictures for you!

I love the unusual color play that I am seeing on my monitor! It looks like it ''flouresces'' a bit. Does it have flouresence?

CCN... I''m not sure. I think TL suggested that I purchase one for a stone I posted in the past, I can''t remember which stone though. That would be fund to do.

Mochi, how is it that all your stones glow so beautifully when you photograph them?

It''s a gorgeous stone.

They feel like they are her one and only stone.

Mochi, you have so many gorgeous stones, I can''t keep up!

LOL, PR. You crack me up!

TL, it does glow and he also said it glows red under black light.

Omiluv... after reading your post, I spoke with my hubby and now he''s interested to know if it glows, so he''s going to get a black light to experiment.

What a special stone! In some pictures it looks like the lovechild of a moonstone and padparadscha!

 

[hoofbeats95]

Very NICE!

What is it about the tree stump (I assume that''s what it is?) that you take pics on? EVERY stone looks amazing in the tree stump pics.
