Who is DB?

You can easily find it like I once did PS - I just googled "Gemstone forums".

They're kind of bubbles I think, but yeah, that's still inclusions.

I wound up buying a little 1.14 carat from DB and already have it set. It has really scratched my itch well.

Very Pretty Pink!!! That setting showcases it Well! It looks gorgeous! You did GOOD!! Im glad you have soothed your itch! Enjoy your Mahenge! Who did the setting for you?

Thank you m'dear!
I got the setting in downtown LA and they had bench people who sized it and set it for me. Talk about instant gratification!

[ooo~Shiney!]

That looks AWESOME!

"sleepy spinel" is caused by micro inclusions that scatter the light. Think kashmir sapphire, velvet look. They glow even in low light.

It's very sleepy then. I've never seen anything glow like this stone!

 

[minousbijoux]

I love glowy

You know, i always thought I needed a HUGE CS to be happy. I've got to say - getting something that's not huge but the absolute perfect color actually makes me happier than I could've imagined.

Wowsers! - I only missed one day on this thread, and you're sorted already! I love the colour, and the shape, and the delicate setting suits it very well. Congratulations, Speedy Athenaworth!

That's a very pretty ring. I love the color and shape of the stone, and the intertwining of the setting.

Wow you DO move fast! Now I know why I saw the pear listed this morning! I'm glad it's for a good reason though. Your new ring is beautiful...though I love the pear too!

 

[athenaworth]

teehee! It's like I was previously dating other pink stones, and now I've found the one I want to marry.

I thought I'd share this last picture. I took it under the table at dinner last night. No light on it at all, and it was still glowing like mad.

 

[athenaworth]

I'm spamming my own thread. Go me!

 

[deorwine]

athenaworth, so happy you like it and are wearing it! That stone deserves to be out in light! What a beautiful setting! That setting is definitely giving me second thoughts

 

[athenaworth]

I love photographing my new ring (who am I kidding, I love photographing all sparklies)

 

[y2kitty]

I miss your old avatar, btw.
