2ct red red burma spinel. No heat per AGL. eye clean and no window. Never seen a red spinel like this, like fire engine red. Well, the price tag is a clue...It makes my mahenge spinels greyish...

This is so pretty. Is it available for sale?
 
Woweeee! :love: :eek: What a beauty! Guessing insanely expensive though...
 
God that's a dream!
 
Holy moly, OTL. :love: Wow. Talk about a unicorn! :lickout: :loopy: What are the dimensions? Do you have any plans for it yet?

Sorry if I'm not making any sense. Those pictures...that glowing red... :shock:
 
That is the shade of red that I want in my dream spinel!!! Lucky you! That stone is so amazing!!! :love: Will you let me know the seller so I can have a look too and see if I want to possibly make a purchase there?
 
wow wow wow! That is one incredible stone. Definitely one that would be on my list of dream stones, but I figure the price tag matches the incredible/out of this world color :wall:

I hope its yours, and that you have epic setting plans for it!
 
That spinel is amazing. The color reminds my of my red red spinel, except its only .7cts so a lot smaller :)

Hi Lucida23, Thanks, I've owned it for just one day :) Besides, this is a buyer's forum, no one post stones that are meant to be for sale here.
At least not at the moment. :bigsmile:

Thank you! It is not from any vendor. Bought from a collector. So this is one and only. Sorry :((

You are so bad ;) . It definitely puts some of my hot pink mahenges to shame. Saturation wise. It's a lively stone and pictures really can't tell what I see though.
 
Wow - OTL, I think I just fainted. That is incredible! How are you going to have it set? This is the perfect red.

This was the first thread I clicked on when I got up this morning. I'm surprised I didn't spew coffee all over the monitor as my jaw hit the floor.

Oh well. Thanks for responding and congrats on this score! Such a gorgeous color!!! Aren't these special finds thrilling? You really did well and I hope you can give me pointers on how to obtain a similar colored one.

Thank you for your kind words :angel: I think I will keep it loose for quite a while :)
 
This stone is not from any vendor, it's bought 2nd hand from a collector. I had it certified by AGL before purchasing it.
Originally he sourced the stone back in 2005 together with the previous partner of gemcal who has since passed away from over thousands of carats burmese spinels...
 
Wow OTL! :shock: :love: :love:

That is just the most wonderful red! Wow.
 
Such a beautiful and intense red!!! Would love to see a video if that is possible.
 
What a gorgeous red!! It looks amazing.
 
That is pretty much as amazeballs as it gets! Congratulations on your new beauty! :love:
 
:sick:

Ugly stone - there is something wrong with it !! I am sure !!!

It would be the best if you send it to me and I willcheck it for you - again and again - for a very long time... :halo:
 
Yeah, gotta say, that's pretty much what I'm looking for. Not gonna happen. I'll enjoy your pictures instead.
