I sort of did a red spinel thing that I really shouldn’t have…
Ooh, it was you? Thanks fantastic! I can’t wait to hear what you think of it in person. And of course, we all need to see some pics. Lol.
The responsible side of me doesn’t agree with you but my mischievous side won out this time and is very excited! Such a unique location and bright color!

Thanks for the heads up! I purchased the green emerald as a starter colored stone. Btw, I’ve been bitten hard by the bug: I’m traveling and did not pack any diamonds—only colored stone rings Y’all have driven me to the dark side
I almost got the zircon but stopped myself haha
Why hasn’t the whiskey sapphire sold?! I want it out of my head. Someone please buy it and put me out of my misery. Otherwise I say in advance I’m not responsible for my actions
ETA: I bit the bullet—bought it and the lab sapphire. That hot pink called to me. And I waited! So that counts right?
DANG!! Ive been keeping my eye on that, just mulling it over. I don’t NEED it, you see…. Haha. Now, I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on it!
Apparently there isn’t a middle finger smiley. So (insert middle finger smiley) to whoever beat me to that chunky cushion spess. Jk but seriously please post pics when you get it! I’m so jealous
Um that would be me. I’m on a spess spree. Late to the party but I’m making up for lost time. My wallet hates me rn. Will post when I receive (along with the other two stones I purchased from the last drop )!
Yay!!!! Share a million pics! Sooo excited for you. Bitter but excited!

For the people with the dragon garnets, how much colour shift do your stones have? I just snatched that +4 ct one and it seems like already a rich red colour. If it glows red in UV then it probably looks redder in the sun?

And another update—a bit of a threadjack so apologies. I reset NKOTB’s purple garnet in a an 18k yellow gold setting I bought off of an online auction. Caysie’s bench made it work and they and Neil both said the setting is a fine one (phew) by Rahaminov. I don’t think this will be the final setting—not 100% my style (too formal is what I’m feeling) but lovely nonetheless. Playing with bands so excuse the mishmash.
Where to do look for auctions of used settings?
