Pics of the New Mahenge You Helped Me Pick Out

[Lisa Loves Shiny]

Thank you everyone- especially TL for helping me with this purchase. Here is the original thread when I asked for opinions and help on a new Mahenge purchase. https://www.pricescope.com/communit...-windows-could-you-live-with-this-cut.172657/

I was talked off a cliff and led to this stone. Today it is rainy with no sun, so all of these pics are in less then ideal lighting. With that in mind I am especially appreciative to be directed to a stone that looks so good in all lighting. The biggest bonus is that I can view this stone straight, without leaning to the left and flapping my arms. lol Thanks again!

Gorgeous stone, cut and colour, LisaRN! Beautiful --- and it matches your comb - how perfect is THAT?? tee hee!

Glad you like it. The plans are for a ring. I am totally a ring girl because I love to look at my gemstones. When I am at a boring meeting I find myself drifting off and staring at my rings....my happy place. lol

I have no idea what setting I will pick. I will pick white gold as it is affordable. Usually I choose diamonds for accents but this stone can stand alone so I have a lot of choices if I can just be patient. Any recommendations are appreciated. I would like to keep the setting under 1K. I might cruise ebay or the Bistro and see if I can pick up some diamond side stones. I am guilty of having a lot of rings so my settings are not terribly expensive. If I had to do it all over again I would have less rings and settings that were over the top.

I really appreciate everyone's comments, and recommendations. When I first started my collection I was stubborn. If I thought something was pretty I believed it was good. Now I am so happy that those with knowledge and experience help me choose the best gemstones for my budget.

Thanks TL! Without your recommendation I would not have bought this stone from Tan. I am so happy I did! Thanks to Tan as well.

Very pretty and you're less likely to be committed to the loonie bin for alarming displaying of arm flapping which is always a bonus! Glad you're happy with your new lovely stone.

What a great pink!

Beautiful stone; it looks well coloured and the cutting is decent (no sideway head tilt needed or some other contortions )
