If that were a sapphire, someone would label it "padapradscha" and sell it for $10K. Is it a spinel? I have a few that color, they're very pretty, and if cut well, sparkle like mad.

tl..it is actually a tourmaline. I also like this morganite. What do you think of this one?
ETA: I like the color of the diamond in this photo...and would love something similar that I could actually afford!

GET A MALAYA!!!! OMG, I have a malaya that is a brownish pink like that diamond. A morganite also gets dirty if you look at it. It won't sparkle unless you clean it night and day, and it has a large tilt window due to the low RI.
