For Sale Spinel from Bron and merelani mint garnet

[lovedogs]

Hi all. I snagged some of the .5(ish) red spinels at $10 a piece when @Bron357 was selling them. I was going to use them as side stones in a red ring project, but ended up going a totally different direction. I have 10 stones, and wondered if other PSers are interested. Asking $100 for all of them, would prefer to ship within the US but can ship outside if the buyer pays the cost.

Also just got a 6mm mint garnet round, but likely won't end up using it for the project I had planned asking $275, just purchased for $300.



It's the bottom green one in this pic. Also open to selling the spess on top if there's interest.

@lovedogs do you have any deets on the spinels?

@lovedogs do you have any deets on the spinels?

I can re-check @Bron357 's old listing, but I don't know anything beyond what she posted originally. I can look up my emails with her to check.

@Bron357 do you have any more info?

Thanks!

 

[lovedogs]

omg I am silly and made a huge mistake. Forgot these are rubellite, not spinel. Ugh, sorry!

@Ella is there any way to change the title of the thread so people don't get confused?

Sorry @the_mother_thing and @Bron357

@lovedogs No worries. I may still be interested if/when you have some deets, such as size/shapes, etc.

They are cushions, though some more elongated than others. Just measured this one (pic below), and it's about 4.2*4.2. give or take, so maybe 4*4 or 4.5*4.5 since I am really bad at exact caliper measurement.

Also attached another pic of them so you can see shape variation. I'd call them all cushions, but not all have the same proportions.

Lovely goodies.
Which mint is the one you got as a gift from Abraham ? How blue is it, and how much does it lean towards yellow ?

Eek I'm not a color expert, but this is my view. I'd say they lean more yellow than blue, but honestly all I see is a mint green. The one I think was a gift (they weren't labeled) is almost dichrotic. It's beautiful but hard to get pics of so I tried my best. It's like there's both white and green....but in a good way? Sorry that's a garbage explanation! Here are pics! The one I think was a gift is the bottom. This is with zero sun outdoors, so it's what they look like outside in overcast.

 

[lovedogs]

Grrrr tried to upload 4 pice but I only see 3. Trying again.

 

[lovedogs]

All still available! Reducing the mint garnet to $250, spess for $50, and I'm open to selling the big recut tourmaline if there's interest.

 

[lovedogs]

Bump! All still available for sale, and open to offers.

@lovedogs, are you still considering selling the spessartite? If so, what are the specs on it and how much are you looking to get for it?

 

[lovedogs]

@lovedogs, are you still considering selling the spessartite? If so, what are the specs on it and how much are you looking to get for it?

Hi there! It's 6mm (I'll double check tomorrow), and if selling it alone I'd ask $60 to help cover shipping costs. If with other stuff I'm selling then I'd ask $50.

Are you still interested in the Spess? If not, it might fit with what @pearaffair was looking for.

 

[OboeGal]

If @pearaffair passes on the spess, I'm very interested! Do you have a Loupetroop listing I can contact you through, or get an email address from?

Sorry, @lovedogs, I was going to email you about the spess a few days ago, but I've been ridiculously busy. I wanted to purchase it but since you have others interested, I will step aside. I should really be concentrating on setting what I already own anyway. (I hope I don't regret this!!)

Are the rubellites still available? I've gotten a little lost down the rabbit hole of listings, but I'm interested and my husband approves!
