Is this a pretty accurate representation of the actual color? I''M IN LOVE! That''s the perfect shade of pink I''m looking for

So what do you plan on doing with it? (Other than maybe sending it my way

Fly Girl takes the garnet out of the drawer and holds it up to the screen. "Yep, that''s the exact color of the garnet."

I''m thinking an upscale ring, or maybe a pendant. Not sure yet. I just know that you have given me a serious case of Umbalite fever.

Thanks, Linda. I''m loving it!

My 4.71 ct garnet arrived today. It rained all day, so I ended up doing a photoshoot under my GE Reveal light bulb. The stone looks lovely and sparkly, and has lots of color.

Hey, we''re Amethyst twins! Kudos to whoever captured those fantastic red and pink flashes in the photograph. I tried so hard with mine but my camera only picked up the violet and blue tones.

Step that is such a perfect setting for your stone! I can''t wait to see the finished ring! Wow, you are putting together some lovely pieces! I hope you do a big family shot when they''re all set--and start a thread for all your beauties!

Linda--I wish I was your neighbor!
I''d march right over there with my camera

I''m sorry it has taken me so long to post my ring. It was with the jeweller for two weeks being set.

So, the stone is an 8mm/2.04ct pink tourmaline (posted earlier in this thread). The picture doesn''t show the colour of the stone at all, it looks washed out when it is actually a very bright pink. I wanted to post this as I know someone here was looking at this setting with a pink stone for an engagement ring so I hope my picture helps :)

Haha.... I had a feeling that was an LOGR! It is lovely. If ever I decide to get a LOGR setting......I will definately make sure I upgrade the stones!!!
