I thought this got lost in the mail but it finally arrived today. The facet reflection makes it photograph a little brown but in real life its all orange.

Glad to hear it finally got there Kitty! It's wonderful, totally worth the wait. Who cut the stone on that, It just sings!
 
Doug Menadue at Bespoke Gems. Its an acorn.
 
That was my guess based on the side view. Delicious! Watch out for squirrels.
 
I love the color! I like looking at Doug's site-so many pictures and his cutting seems so beautiful!
 
Its cool! love the color! can you still see the acorn cutting through the open gallery?
 
Oh What a luscious color !!!!!!!!!!
BEAUTIFUL!!!!
You are sure to get SO MUCH pleasure wearing it ~ Looks Lovely :love: :love: :love:
 
Very pretty, and I love all that orange lusciousness!! Is the metal silver or WG?
 
nice! my personal experience is that spess color is better when deeper cut....assuming the rough was good in the first place. love the simplicity of the setting that let's your lovely spess be the star of the show. nicely done :appl:

The color of the stone is great! I don't know its origin, but it has this "flame" quality of really beautiful spessartities. The simplicity of the setting shows the stone in its full beauty, and I like double prongs. Great ring, I bet it will be noticeable and you'll receive many compliments on it!
 
The color of the spessartite is wonderful and the ring setting looks terrific with it. You will find yourself distracted by it a lot. :bigsmile:
 
The black spinel and the merelani mints work for me too.
 
oh, yeah, he's got some lovelies in orange!

btw, did you see the 3 carat black spinel is gone, Gone, GONE?!

Same here.
 
Thanks VapidLapid, packrat, ooo~Shiney! , movie zombie, and marcy.

megeve, you can see the acorn through the open gallery, which I love. Originally I wanted a tension type setting but I decided I wanted something stable, with prongs.

tourmaline_lover, its 14kt white gold.

crasru thank you for your kind comments. The stone is from Tanzania.
 
Very pretty! Love the color and side view of the ring.
 
I think that spinel is very extinct.
 
What a beautiful orange. Love the simple setting.

OK, I had to lock my credit card in the jewelry box till tomorrow. Tell me, please, is the stone that's killing you close to yours in color?

I tried to convert the prices in AUD to USD ... did not look too promising...

I think so, might be just a hair lighter. Man I love emerald cuts.

Thanks sonomacounty! "Mile high orange celebration" that's a cool way of putting it!
 
Simple and elegant setting. :appl:
 
Beautiful stone and ring; there aren’t many spessartites that will look great when set in a white metal.
