Finally nabbed one from Gene. 2ct “Colombian” color emerald with just a touch of inclusion for glow. Woot!
Nice! my stone should be here tomorrowGene just updated the site. A beautiful pink sapphire pair and a beautiful hot pink sapphire.
I tried for the hot pink one. *crosses fingers*

Wow, I didn't realize they made lab ones! I think Ill likely end up just getting a doublet to save $, since at least that way I can see the finished piece. But thank you!!
The blue spinel.Awesome. What did you get? I can’t seem to remember.
It is perfect!!!Finally got a precision gem lab emerald (preloved)

Gene of Precision Gems.
It’s definitely more blue and less included and very very glowy.How would you compare it to your natural emerald? Inquiring minds need to know.
I would love to get my hands on some of the rough that it came from.

You're not looking for one in this color, are you?Anyone here going to Tuscon? I am dying for a specific color of lab blue spinel that none of the usual vendors seem to have anymore
haha sadly not. Scott cut one for me and it was amazing (a few pages back) but not the exact color I want. I want the color shown below, which seems very hard to find (except in massive pieces of rough, but only from 1 random vendor overseas).You're not looking for one in this color, are you?
@MakingTheGrade wow, what a gem--congrats on scoring it pre-loved.
@lovedogs are you trying to buy rough or an already cut blue spinel? It might be worth commissioning one from a cutter that knows his stuff? I noticed that the vendor you bought your previous blue spinel from disclosed that color distribution was on a gradient in the rough, so I think that the color of the cut gem using the rough that vendor was selling would depend on the size and how the gem is cut. Have you tried asking a cutter such as Gene to figure out the specifics of how to get a lab spinel in the exact color and size you want? If not, it might be worth trying. Anyways, good luck!
