I am in LOVE with that stone!!

Dumortierite in quartz. I find the inclusions and color fascinating! No plans for setting. I think it will stay loose. Haven't seen many examples of dumortierite on PS. Anyone else have one?

Thanks @blingmeupscotty! It's definitely a fun and interesting stone to look at!

Just wanted to share a few photos of my new French cut eternity band in platinum! These are untreated blue Montana sapphires mined in the Yogo Gulch area.

Impulse purchase. Was never very interested in hot pink but was interested in having a mehenge garnet for my collection. What do you all think ? Its 7 mm

I'm in love with these new pieces. I can't wait until you get it so I can admire all your pics (and you always take such awesome pics).

Impulse purchase...that's something I say far too often.
The color looks gorgeous!

Wow! I've never seen an asscher set that way. I love it. It's so unique and beautiful.

Yes totally unique. I usually just see asschers with side stones or a halo. This one appears to elongate the fingers almost like an oval would but without the chubbiness !

I saw this beauty, while shopping at KosnarGemCo on etsy. It's a rose pink zircon, which is pretty on it's own, but this cut is so cool and different from the usual. I think it's so neat! Too bad my wallet tried to bite my finger off, when I went for my credit card.

Very pretty. One of the very few checkerboard cut top gems that applies to.

Just gorgeous @elle_71125

If zircons were as hardy as diamonds I wonder if the price would hike up? They sparkle sooooo nicely!

I love checkerboards. They really brighten up stones. Lovely

I ended up to buy this from Chris Auletta. 3.17ct Precision-Cut Spinel by Gene Flanigan. It’s very dark, totally mysterious and definately my first spinel

I saw that on LT. Congrats on a very cool stone. She's a mysterious lady that's for sure!

Very cool stone, kind of reminds me of a plum, like dark and purple and delicious

I recently bought this Mahenge Garnet cut by Jeff White. It's replacing the OEC in my original ER setting.

Thanks @shinyrocks! IRL it's more of a raspberry color. I'll post photos when I get it back from the bench.

Does it look dark? A lot of red/purple garnet has dark tone

The Mahenge and umbalite aren’t usually too dark.

Here's a quick photo (not a good one) of it sitting loose in the setting and my Mahenge Spinel.
