Hi Pricescopers!
It''s been awhile since I last posted and I think this is my first post in the Colored Stones forum. I have been lurking here for awhile though. I love looking at all of your colored beauties.
I had a beautiful baby girl last August and am thinking of doing a ring that I will one day give to my daughter on some important day...perhaps her wedding day or graduation from college...I haven''t decided yet. I am torn between peridot (August birthstone) and something light pink since she is a girl.
For pink stones, it seems like spinel and tourmaline are good picks. Is one better than the other? How are they different?
Are there others I should be considering?
As far as shape, I am thinking either oval or asscher. I hope to have the stone set as a three or five stone with diamonds. I am a colored stone noob so really appreciate the help. I have been looking at Jeff White''s site as his cutting is really superb.
Thanks!
