Sorry if you are expecting pictures because I have none. To all the tourmaline lovers, if you want a nice pink one, you should email Barry right away.

I jumped on the big pink the moment I saw it. It is the 4ct 10mm one that Barry called impressive. It is a nice color, mostly pink with a very slight hint of brown so in some lighting it is coral/orangy pink red. It has better color than my 9mm tourmaline, also from Barry.

I decided to return the big pink because it is too similar to my mounted pink/red tourmaline, but I would love to see it goes to a nice new home.
 
Thanks for letting us know, yingh. Someone must have bought it because it's not on his site. I remember it being very beautiful-- there were a lot of gorgeous stones that night and I opted to buy a couple of others instead of that one. I'm hoping someone here has picked it up as well. I'd love to see pics!
 
I just sent it back, not sure if Barry will post it again. If interested, email him.
 
I'm not sure what happens to stones that are returned to Barry, but when I've returned things in the past, they were never re-listed. It actually made me feel guilty, and I hope he was able to sell my returns. So, definitely email him rather than waiting for it to reappear.
 
Since he is getting ready for his next big push of new stones, maybe he'll wait and include it next week?
 
Maybe someone was already in line for that stone, so he didn't bother to relist. I had that stone too, but it was very similar to my supernova pink tourmaline I have from him. I actually did take pics - it's a lovely stone.
 
Is that the stone that you had? Didn't Lori end up buying that one? Maybe I have it confused with another one.

Is this the stone that looks like the supernova that you had set and had the cutlet damaged? I love that stone! I'll contact Barry...
 
Cellentani, could you possibly post pics that you took of this stone? Thank you, in advance! And if you don't have time today, that's OK.

Hmm, now I'm confused - I thought Yingh was talking about a 4.09ct, 10.2mm round brilliant. I jumped on it during the first drop, but returned it within 3 days when I realized how close it looked to my supernova (yes, the one that suffered a chipped culet). There were slight color differences between the stones, but just not enough. Let me look for my pics....
 
The setting is just purfect for a assher! Goodness, it's so pretty!
 
ok, here we go

Thank you :wavey: Your pictures are lovely--and what a beautiful stone! I'm not sure if it's the same. I emailed Barry about the size. I'm glad you still have the exact measurements!
 
Gorgeous stone - I love it but I am on a freeze. I returned one stone to Barry (which I still miss) - he put it back up on the site and it was sold within days.

Yes that's the one. I bought it right after you returned it. It is a gorgeous gem. Better than the one I have, but mine was already mounted in a LOGR ring. So I returned the big pink. Barry was a little upset and said he might put it in his collection. I feel very guilty. And this is such a beautiful stone.
 
I think it is a lovely stone.
 
Beautiful stone. Gosh, Barry's cutting is just so impressive. I must keep a closer eye on his site.
