Hi Gem geeks!
There is a spinel on AJS that I'd like some opinions on. Bearing in mind that I want a spinel that is as close to stoplight red as possible but affordable and perfectly round, and that this would be for a bezel setting, how do you guys think this one below would look?

Do you think it will look pinkish from a distance, in other words based on your experience can you describe what color it will look like from arm's length set in a platinum bezel?
Here was the gem's description from rung:
"The 1.45ct round spinel you are looking at is a beautiful gem. It it a beautiful electric neon pinkish-red color with a slight of orange red flashes over tone. Nice saturation, excellent cut and luster."
He said after new year they will get a new shipment from Mahenge, so I am contemplating waiting to see what they turn out.
Also, Thanks for answering my question about recutting spinel the other day. You guys rock (no pun intended).
