I'm trying to keep my mind off my engagement sapphire and ended up purchasing two stones from Bob Kast. I wanted darker stones with a lot of color to go with the *dark* blue BB spinel I bought from Freke on the preloved forum. I'm going to eventually put them in prong set stackers. I probably won't get them set until Christmas but wanted to share.
Most accurate for the blue spinel (5.9 mm) and the purple sapphire (5 mm)

Blurry: But the most accurate for the green tourmaline (5.2 mm), which is a very nice green with an excellent cut, but apparently hates being photographed

What I like most is that while the purple and the blue are dark, all three stones go well together in low light AND all three stones go equally ballistic in the sunlight.
