So I''ve been holding out on you guys...

[Babyblue033]

I got this baby almost a month and a half ago but I'm just posting about it now that the project is almost in completion

I think I can honestly say that this is my favorite stone so far, I just love its color and how great it looks in ALL lighting!

I got an LOGR setting for it and actually just dropped it off to be set not 5 minutes ago. So hopefully in about a day or two I should have more photos of the final ring too!

Forgot to add the specs. BB Pink Tourmaline, 8.6mm.

 

[Babyblue033]

Oops technical trouble.

 

[Babyblue033]

Looks like arrows

 

[Babyblue033]

Last one for now.

Baby,
That’s gorgeous. The pink looks so pure and the colour quite intense, especially in the last picture. There’s absolutely no reason to hold back those pictures on us. I can’t wait to see the end result.

Wow! gorgeous stone! looks soooo yummy in that yellow gold looking ring holder too! just sooo gorgeous of a stone!

 

[kas baby]

So I officially LOVE this gem! man oh man is it PINK!

drool.... can''t wait to see it set

 

[cellentani]

What a beautiful stone!! Are you gonna tell us which LOGR you got, or do we have to wait?

 

[LaurenThePartier]

That colour is . . . just, WOW!

Which setting is it going into?

 

[Babyblue033]

Thank you everyone, I''m totally in love with this one and have been carrying it around with me everywhere ever since I got it

It looks really deep and intense pink in some lights, a little softer and feminine in others, but overall looks GREAT indoors despite horrendous lighting.

I think I''ll keep you in suspense a while longer with the setting

That way you guys can keep me company while I impatiently await for my jeweler to call me!

Argh! You''re awful!

 

[Indylady]

Beautiful! I''ll be waiting impatiently for you to get it back so we can see what setting it is!

In the mean time, I''m going to guess the halo with the split shank. That''s just a personal fave though.

 

[MonkeyPie]

Oooh that is one gorgeous, yummy pink stone! That is one of the best pink stones I have ever seen

When did your jeweler say he would be done with setting?

 

[Kismet]

That''s a gorgeous pink! I can''t wait to see the final product.

 

[Barcelona]

Wow, the color is stunning!

 

[katiedid]

I WANT THIS!!! So beautiful.

 

[Nomsdeplume]

That is such a gorgeous stone! great color. Congrats!

What a naughty baby you are.

It won''t be too long now, will it?

 

[icekid]

That is definitely a fabulous pink! Can''t imagine why you''ve been keeping it a secret, though

 

[Fly Girl]

Beautiful stone, Babyblue033. It looks like you have achieved the perfect pinkish color that you have been questing for. Gorgeous, gorgeous stone.

 

[LtlFirecracker]

That is a beautiful shade of pink. Can''t wait to see it set

[Babyblue033]

Thank you ladies for such nice words

I do think I finally found my perfect pink stone, what will I do from now on? LOL! I''m thinking a new goal is in order

I''m really really hoping the ring will be ready tomorrow, although when the jeweler asked when I wanted it back I so nonchalantly said "no hurry, just call me when it''s done". What was I thinking???

 

[hkm25]

That is so beautiful! Do you by any chance have the vendor picture? I am looking for a tourmaline that color and would love to know what the vendor picture looked like so I can get an idea of what to look for.

 

[marcy]

Very pretty.

 

[oddoneout]

Great intense colour.

Here''s Barry''s picture of the stone.

I think this was probably the only time I didn''t quite know what to expect from his photo, it seems a bit fuzzy/sleepy to me? But I had a gut feeling about it so I went for it, and after talking with Barry a bit more I was completely convinced as he called it the best pink tourmaline he has cut.

Well it is absolutely stunning. I can''t wait to see it set!

Not today!

I was stuck in meetings all day anyway but it sure would''ve cheered me up after a long day. Maybe tomorrow?
