I have posted many pictures of my pad previously. Here are a couple more. It''s really hared to capture the true color. The hand shot is probably the closest.

AN, I have said it before, but I

your Pad.

[Catmom]

AN, my heart stops every time I see your pad ring! It is unbelievably beautiful.

 

[Gailey]

Oh my goodness all these stones are so beautiful.

I''m really afraid to jump into this thread - not worthy!

I love Art Nouveau''s ring, and would love to see some more pictures in different lighting.

Now does anyone have a peach pink asscher? That really would be a sight for sore eyes!

 

[T L]

AN,
I think you could just post pictures of that pad all day long, and I would never ever get tired looking at it. Not only is it an exceptional gemstone that would look magnificent in a plain setting, but the setting is amazing as well. Everything about that ring screams "royal, museum, important" to me. That is one of my favorite pieces on PS. You have the most exquisite taste.


Okay, you other pad gals, get your pictures up here!!

Here''s my Oregon Sunstone cut by Dan the Man. Peachy copper schiller!

Coati, that is a gorgeous stone. I remember the first time you posted that. I am so tempted to get one with schiller.

Thanks TL--you should get one--it''s truly delightful!

Mine! My BB Malaya - I took the pic with the lid on the case though (had a minor heart attack a few days ago when photographing one of my other stones - it fell behind the couch!)

ah peachy love!
Nice to meet all the other orangeish pink--peachy lovers.

Here are two of mine in that color range, that may not have been noticed here. In addition, I have two more pad sapphires, one imperial topaz, a Mozambique tourmaline, and two large uncut topaz crystals, if I can get around to photgraphing them:

Of course you Linda, most of all, because we have only your avatar to admire. It''s a beautiful avatar, but we want to see more!!! Does your daughter use the macro mode on her camera? That''s best for gemstone pictures.

TG needs to get her pad in this thread as well.

 

[RNgemlover]

I just got these two padparadscha sapphires back from the independent appraisal (you guys have taught me well, one of the three I bought was synthetic

). But at least these two are natural, and really quite beautiful!

 

[T L]

SR, very pretty. Real sparklers!

After reflection I don''t think I can post my Malaya garnet in this thread. Although it''s beautiful, and despite the initial picture from the vendor - to call her peachy or pink is a real stretch. Now if I see a thread called "Sherry and Sexy", I''ll join in!

But of course I can play, but it''s a bit intimidating following on from those gorgeous pads!

Here''s my peachy pink tourmaline from Peter Toracca. I searched a long time for this stone, as did Peter - bless him. She''s going to be upfront and centre in an updated engagement ring to celebrate my 15th wedding anniversary. I''m pleased to say things are progressing on that front. I can report that Miss peachy, pink and precious is in negotiations with Wink and Ocean Pearlman ......

 

[Gailey]

Here''s another shot of her - yup, she definitely qualifies!

 

[Gailey]

And last but not least, my favourite shot.

 

[Brown.Eyed.Girl]

holy moly Gailey, that is one beautiful stone!! I really need to check out Peter Toracca''s website...

Gailey,
Very pretty, and thanks for sharing at least one of your peachy pink stones with us!!

 

[Linda W]

OMG Gailey!!! Your stone is breathtaking

. I love it. OK, who is Peter, who cut the stone??? I am not familiar with names???

Thank you Linda and BEG!

I''m delighted with the stone. Originally my quest was for peach, born out of a love of peachy coloured imperial topaz. However my husband is much more motivated by pink, this turned out to be the perfect combination. It does show quite differently in different lighting combinations. The pictures that Peter sent me originally hardly showed any pink. In fact, one picture was definitely on the lavender side of pink. The pictures I posted were taken at about 4:30 in the afternoon a couple of months ago and the sun was quite low.

Peter Toracca is a wonderful gentleman to deal with. So far he has cut 8 stones for me and is still holding my shopping list! He doesn''t have a store front to his website yet, but don''t let that put you off making enquiries.

Ooh, I''m glad people like my stone. You''ve no idea how nervous I was posting my stone hot on the heels of those beautiful pads!
