After many years of looking these babies happened to come along.
These are not my pictures but the vendors pics. I hope to have these stone in hand some time this week. I will post pics I have taken to see how they compare to the vendors.
Sorry to leave this thread hanging so long with no follow up but I have been out of the country last week. I just returned this morning.
The stones I received looked no where near as saturated as the vendors pics. I sent the pair of shaped pear shaped stones back because I was less than pleased with them. The oval I decided to keep even though it does not match the vendore pics but it is quite a nice blue spinel. It looks less purple in real life. The green stone is a paraiba I bought in Cozumel.
