You sound like you're slurring.

It's like drunk typing. :bigsmile:

OMG that is a ROCK of aqua goodness!!! i've never seen a color like that before in an aqua. Just gorgeous!

If you don't mind my asking, what is the stone in your other ring - the pink one in the 3-stone setting? That's super pretty, too!

Thanks! The pink stone is a spinel also cut by Jeff.

Amazing. That's one of the deepest cushions I have seen. How does the color compare with Jeff's photos?

The color is spot on per Jeff's photos. Of course it has different shades of blue depending on lighting. I am amazed at the depth of the stone. It's going to sit fairly high on the finger even in a low setting .

Right! I don't know if it CAN handle sidestones on a 6.5. It's 10.2mm

Just opened the thread - the stone is amazing! Saturated and deep-blue, for the first time in my life I wanted to have an aquamarine. Wonderful. Great cut, as usual!

BrightIce, I thought about how to possibly set your gorgeous aqua.

Then Art Nouveu's Leon paraiba/cuprian ring came to mind. I see a lot of similarities between your stone and hers.

Beautiful aqua - the fancy faceting should help with off-set the low RI and the depth makes the colour richer.

How do you think GOG's August Vintage Cushions would look as sides for this stone? They have (2) .29 H available :Up_to_something:

OMG this stone is breathtaking!
How long did the whole process take?
I've been communicating about a stone as well... so far the emails are few & far between.

I've had several stones cut by Jeff, and typically he seems to answer his email 2-3 times a week, so sometimes there is a time lag in communication from him. As you can see from Bright Ice's gorgeous aqua, it's well worth being patient with the process!

Oh yes, It's quite obvious that it's worth it! I don't mind being patient at all. I just wasn't sure if that was unusual or not, in case he doesn't think I'm serious.
I've never seen such beautifully cut stones!

Yowza!! That is one large spectacular stone. I wonder if there was enough left over to make little melee for a mixed stacker?? :naughty:

I am holding off on setting projects until my divorce is final. Extra funds going to the attorney right now which is not fun at all.
