Hi, gang. I'm sorry for being a pest, but i can't resist picking everyone's brain on stuff BEFORE I pull the trigger on an item now. Haha. I think these look very promising, and I have a great feeling about the seller. I found her on Etsy, and she has been so accommodating and informative thus far (plus she seems to really know her colored gemstones, and spent over 20 years managing a fine jewelry store ).
Anyway, I'm posting some pictures and the listing description. I feel like It would be totally worth grabbing one of these 4 mm stones and having a look at it in person, but I wanted to make sure you guys agree. That way I save myself the hassle of buying it and then returning it immediately (which is what I would have done with those super dark red spinels if not for your valuable input .
"This listing is for one sparkling 4.0mm orangey pink sapphire. The color is reminiscent of a spectacular Dahlia or a vibrant Padparadscha sapphire. This exquisite color shifts from orangey-pink to reddish pink depending on the light source and angle from which it's viewed. This gem is from Tanzania and is heat-treated (industry-standard treatment for sapphires). This sapphire does have one minor visible inclusion under 10x which is reflected in the price."
