Looking much more red under a different light.

Stunning! All of them!

BEG, wow what an interesting look that creates! I would definitely consider something like that, it''s just so unusual and interesting.

TL, here''s the photo of the Tanga Garnet from Barry''s site. It turned out to be darker IRL but it''s so hard to get that perfect pink, many are beautiful outside but little too dark indoors. Unfortunately I spend way too much time stuck inside the office with bad lighting

That is so funny because I purposely look for gems that look good in flourescent light than any other kind since that''s all we have in our office, and I spend way too much time there. Ha!!

Thanks for posting the photo, it''s lovely!

Lovely collection. I love the way the color changes with different lighting... must add this to my want list!

Tourmaline lover ( and babyblue), You should try a spinel. The ones I own seem to look really good in most indoor lighting.

I actually found a picture that shows the colors a little better. Here''s the group shot.

I wanted to share this one because this is the only picture of my pendant where the garnet doesn''t look completely dark, it just doesn''t photograph well at all.
