Thank you Iknvrb4 and ricezo!
Today I took some more photos with the phone, I am not sure where I placed my camera's battery charger and the camera battery is flat!

Thanks again ricezo and dk168, I had fun taking the photos and it's nice to finally see blue skies again, so I took a few more. I used a strand of pearls with cherry overtones and the bright pink nail color polish bottle as props.

Woo hoo! I was hoping that I would find more pics of your beautiful ring! It is amazing how the the saturation and hue of your spinel changes depending on the surrounding environment. I know nothing about colored stones so I hope that you understand what I am saying. It is just stunning! :appl:

Thank you CRYSTAL24, and I agree what you see changes depending on the environment. Although using the pink red components from the props I up-played the pink/red components of the stone. I see more of a dark magenta like this painting in real life.

Those new pics :love: :love: :love:
Your stone seems to glow. What a gem!
You have chosen the most perfect setting for your spinel. The setting has quite some oomph with the sidestones but puts your stone center stage. Great choice!!

Hi Lovinggems--

Your VC ring is absolutely gorgeous! I'm the PSer that has the antique EC you reference that Victor created a couple of years ago. I am still loving his work, and am really glad that it was an inspiration for yet another beautiful piece. He was terrific to work with. Enjoy your Mahenge in good health!

Thank you for your lovely comments! I love your ring and it gave me the confidence to contact VC to put my spinel this gorgeous setting!
I would love to see some more diamonds or colored stones in the same setting.

Jambalaya thank you for your kind words and I hope you're enjoying wearing your new aquamarine beauty!

How should I miss this one? This color spinel is not very easy to find nowadays.

WOW. Late to the game, but that has to be 1) the most beautiful setting ever 2) the prettiest shade of pink
