Hello all,

I previously purchased a whole bunch of 1.5mm Luc Yen cobalt spinel melee from Yvonne Raley. In Tucson this year, she found another small parcel in larger sizes, so I grabbed all she had left (I'm cooking up what I hope will be a fun project). :) I have now put together the stones I need for my ring, and have 10 of the 1.5mm stones left over. They weigh about .02ct. each, for an approximate total combined weight of .20ct. They are a bright true blue - absolutely zero green or teal modifiers. They are also eye clean and well-matched for color and size... super scarce and super valuable. I bought these guys for $8,000 per carat. I'm not sure if Yvonne even has any left, but I certainly haven't seen them anywhere else. I am only looking to recoup $5,000 per carat, for a total price of $1,000. Payment would be via Paypal friends and family. Thanks for looking!

Best,
Autumn

Don’t you want to hold off on selling these until your project is safely completed?
Or have you already given yourself a cushion :)

They are lovely-
Can’t wait to see what you do with them!
And someone else is going to get a fun & gorgeous project out of them as well

Oh yes, I have a cushion of 5 extra stones. Praying I don't need any, but hoping I have enough, if so. Thank you for pointing it out... super important with these fussy little CS melee.
