White spinel pear is here!!

That really sucks; is it due to the pear shape?

<sigh> yep - its because of the pear. I'm hoping maybe Jerry....
 
Perhaps a lapidary can purchase the right rough to cut a pear for you but there'll be some weight loss because I think they are rarely shaped right for pears. A green garnet in that size is $$$$$$.
 
It's a lovely stone but sadly it just doesn't pop in the setting does it? I'm with the others in that I think you will find an amethyst pear easier to find and it will be stunning in that setting. If you can't find a ready cut pear at least it should be a little bit easier to find someone with a hunk of rough that will cut - keeping my fingers crossed for you.

ETA: Chrono I may be wrong but I think green doesn't come up well for jbk - which is a shame because I thought the tsav looked great in the setting too. OTOH that eyesight flaw may well save her a LOT of money ;))
 
I love Jerry! :love: He thinks he has some amethyst rough!! And to make sure we'll end up with the best stone size/proportions I'm sending the ring to him. He can get far more precise measurements than I can then he'll decide best proportions/size for maximum performance.
I'm glad I've got some other distractions going on at the moment. :Up_to_something: It may take him a few weeks to get to it - he's got a lot of work at the moment.
 
YIPPEE!!! I hope he's got just the right depth of colour, like JJ had posted in her photo shop spread. That would be fantastic if Jerry could cut you a pear for your setting - fingers crossed :appl:
 
Yea! I am so glad I could help 'show the way'. I don't get over here as much as I'd like to..I think I have too many interests. I LOVE pearls, so I spend alot of time at that other forum :D And, now don't laugh, I LOVE birds, so the hubby and I have been going birding, and of course birders have a forum...., and with a new camera, I've been taking a lot of bird photos.
 
Very promising indeed; it's great that he gets to see the setting firsthand to cut a stone to fit. I hope that the material has enough depth of colour with blue flash for you.
 
Excellent news jbk! *fingers crossed*
 
That truly would be awesome - you deserve some good news after all your searching! Dust to you.
 
Wow JewelJ, those mock ups looked great. I also liked the green and the purple stones. Big help for visualizing impaired :wink2:

I like the spinel pear but am sure it will find a nice home. Looking forward to seeing what Jerry can do.

Nope - not a single taker on the spinel pear. I put listings up on DB and LoupeTroop. Oh well - I guess she gets no love ;(
