Hi guys! This is one of those "help me find…" threads, and since I don't have much at this point it shouldn't be too hard. I'm having tons of fun shopping for and buying and setting colored stones since I started last summer. So far I have some garnets (Rhodolite, Umbalite, Spess, and Mali), two Afghan tourmalines (pink and blue-green), an amethyst, and a topaz. I'm seeing a pattern in my purchases though and I'd like to go for something different this time, so I thought I'd ask you nice folks for ideas. Maybe a bright pastel shade, like a peach or lavender spinel? Or a great looking aqua, or a nice grassy green anything?? As long as I don't already have one I'm game. I think my only other requirement is a precision cut- coming over from the diamond side has left that impression on me! Any ideas welcome, and thank you!
Oh, and unfortunately the financial limits… So far I haven't spent much over $1K on a stone and would prefer to keep it that way, though some of my favorites have been WELL under that. The lower the price tag, the better
I promise to post pics of whatever I buy. Thanks again for any and all ideas!
