Here's my newest spinel from Tan. Some quick quick photos, can't wait to give it a proper photoshoot!

The first one really shows just how orangy it can go indoors. The rest are pretty close to strong light/sun light. I opened it up and was taken aback. Plus Tan has some of the best packaging I've encountered so cute (I'll take photos later)

Thank you! .96ct Tanzanian 6.2x4.9x3.7

Thank you all! I feel like I'm making better decisions since PS :D Even though the culet is a bit wonky and it has a tiny window it should look amazing when I decide what to do with it

It reminds me of a watermelon/cherry Jolly Rancher. It is a lot more pink than in Tans listing. These are screenshots from the video and a link.http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330471200378

I was very lucky - someone came within $5 of my high bid!

Wow, makes me rethink some of the stones I overlooked on Tan's site in the past. The color on there is incredible. Good for you on picking this one up!

Just some daytime photos, it's rainy and overcast but this little fella picks up light like it was his job. It definitely matches Tan's pictures and videos in natural light better than indoor lighting. It sits somewhere between red and pink with a dash of orange thrown in for good measure. The bottle of wine we opened last night matches the stone too. :lol:


And the super cute packaging from Tan. I literally went "squeeee" when I opened the mailbox
