I actually did mention it in the thread where someone was looking for princess cut sapphires, but I bought it from Enhoerning Jewelry/Inken Krause. I bought and returned another ruby and told her what my requirements were, and was basically prepared to wait for a year or so, but she went to a top dealer and picked this one out for me.
Here's the picture I posted in that other thread.

I think medium. Inken told me it's brighter than pigeon blood, but definitely vivid saturation. Depends on what you mean by medium-dark. I will have it sent to AGL for a Prestige report.
That is one amazing ruby! Beautiful!
Thanks @lovedogs for posting and sharing.
Pics in of the stone in the best lighting i.e direct sun. In the shade and under lights it’s a vivid color but doesn’t have the same wow factor. But when the light hits...
It does have tilt windows and goes dark at certain angles but after playing with it for the past day I think it’s a keeper.
Is this royal indigo color? Or just plain indicolite? Trying to figure out what it’s supposed to be called.
That’s some serious wow factor. Any ideas for settings? Too soon? 
), I’ll happily buy it and be the next owner.
@icy_jade that is a gorgeous indicolite! To me, I would say that "royal blue" is a darker saturation, like navy blue except with a slight purplish hue. I think yours looks a neon blue under sunlight. Tourmalines always look their best under sunlight, don't they?
You got it? That’s awesome! And it looks incredible in your pic.
This is beautiful. I didn’t pull the trigger because the bank wire made me nervous. Icy_jade, if you decide this isn’t a keeper for you after you sit on it a bit (it can be years from now

It's stunning when the light hits. Yeah it was described as neon but since it’s my first indicolite I’ve no idea what they usually look like.
Was planning on a pendant before I got it, but after I saw it under the light I had to have it as a ring. But then I worry about durability and having to baby it. Still can’t decide if I want to halo the heck out of it or go with a really small/simple halo for everyday wear. Yeah so really stuck at this stage. Ideas very welcomed!
), but I agree, the ruby price comparison seems ambitious.
Does anyone else have any comments on the spinel above? Hoping for more feedback

This spinel is smaller, but it's hot pink/red and even comes with a Lotus lab report stating untreated.
Limited time 10% off sale, I would buy if I wasn't being bad...thinks *must be responsible*...

I don't believe you've posted a thread on her. I just searched and only found a ruby halo around a diamond ring.

There’s also a beautiful purplish red Asscher cut that looks yummy.
