So as to not hijack Ed's thread, here's my own: 7.08 cts, fat diamond cut, Charcas Mexico:

3.12 cts, radiant cut, Madagascar

22.92 cts, backgammon rectangle cut, Charcas, Mexico. This has to be one of the major precision cut Danburites in the world. All 3 are near flawless at 10X (It is difficult to tell inclusions that tiny from dust spots).

Beautiful stones. The Mexican ones clearly show the light pink that is present to a greater or lesser extent. Mine, alas, have very little pink. I am still looking for a nice Madagascan stone as I understand that the color is natural (unlike the Russian ones).
 
That's a beautiful collection!
 
I am ashamed to confess that I heard about danburites only recently. Yours appear to be stunning stones, I can only imagine how they look IRL.
BTW, thank you for the advice to visit ATG exposition!
 
ATG: It is a fabulous and extremely well lighted display/collection. I hope you did or will enjoy it.
 
I'm dying over the radiant Madascar stone! Oh, what a color!
 
These are the first danburites I've seen that I love - beautiful stones.
