It's a beautiful color. It looks drastically different in both sets of photos. I'm not sure if it's just me, or the cut won't do that color justice. Time will tell. I'm excited for you and I'll cross my fingers!
So pretty!
It looks like it might snag a lot of environmental colors in the second photo? I think that would be awesome.
It's huge! I'm not usually a big fan of grey spinels but this one looks gorgeous!
What were you planning on doing with it? Ring?
It is pretty big - 8.5mm. I'm a bit like Acinom in that I like big gems (sadly my budget is not so thrilled about this!) The plan is definitely a ring. (Although I think it would make an amazing necklace -- but then I couldn't see it!) Initially I thought it would be a three or five stone sort of like one Elle at TGP had on Instagram a while back, but with bezels, but now I don't know. I really like some of the halos I've seen and i sort of like how it looks in the kite orientation. I think I do want to bezel it just to make sure I don't chip a corner.
In any event there needs to be a lot of saving before I can set it! (And no more getting distracted and buying other stuff!)
