Dan''s New Purple Spinel

[marcy]

It''s gorgeous. I hope some lucky PS member snatches that beauty up.

 

[karee888]

Yes, very pretty!

If I didn''t already have an amethyst coming from Gary [well, soon!], I would consider it!

 

[Linda W]

Marcy, I think you should buy it.

 

[loriken214]

Go for it Marcy!

Linda and Lori I wouldn''t need any arm twisting. I have been wanting a purple spinel.

Karee, I will be anxious to see your amethyst.

 

[FrekeChild]

Wow that''s a stunner!!!

Me too Marcy!!! It is getting cut from the same rough this one was -- swoon!!!

 

[marcy]

Freke, yes it looks like a great cut and color.

Karee, that is a beautiful color stone. How exciting for you.

 

[karee888]

thanks! i''m thinking of setting it in rose gold.

you should get the dan spinel!! it''s such a great color, and doesn''t look like there is any gray. his stones are SO sparkly!! and i don''t think this one should be too pricey.

That will look great in rose gold. I have an ametrine 8x6 EC that I am thinking of putting in rose gold.

I have 2 stones from Dan and they are gorgeous and very sparkly. I even have a WG ring that only needs a head to mount a pretty stone like this one on top. Decisions, decisions.

I am an enabler so I say do it, haha!

It''s such a great purple. It doesn''t seem like there are too many of those with such a pure color.

So true. It is a great color. Like I told Lori and Linda I don''t need much encouragement.

 

[karee888]

let us know if you get it!!!

 

[knitwit]

That is one beautiful stone...so I emailed Dan about it. It was being cut for a lady as a gift her Mom so it''s spoken for.

 

[Jypsie]

Yes, it''s for my mom. Don''t be sad, she''s going to be very happy - she deserves it It''s staying in the PS family.

That's really pretty with the blue/purple colour. Does it have red flash too? The colour really reminds me of the 4 Peaks Amethyst.
