This post is long overdue, but my little one is napping so here it goes!

Some of you may have seen a listing on Loupe Troop a month ago for a Mahenge spinel ring. After a few email exchanges with the seller and drooling over the pictures, I decided to take the plunge and purchase my dream ring! I had been looking for a Mahenge spinel for many months. This one was the perfect size with a preloved price tag, so happy me :D

The Mahenge spinel was purchased from Jaimeen at PrimaGems by the original owner.
Specs: 2.24ct, 6.7x8.8mm.
The setting is an intricate vintage design with delicate milgrain, which I love :kiss2:

The spinel is neon hot pink indoors for the most part. The amazing thing is that it GLOWS in low light. Now I understand why others have been so enthusiastic about Mahenge spinels!!

In daylight outdoors, the pink gets a little lighter:

Next to Gene's YAG ring. The hot pink and teal make up my favorite color combo:

In sunset, the spinel shows warm notes of orange in certain angles but still mostly hot pink (sorry for my dry hands). I just love the surprise color change here:

Lastly, a shoutout to @suzanne2 - It was so pleasant working with you! I feel lucky to have this ring :dance:

Thank you @Rfisher , I love that each of the rings is an example of natural versus lab created gemstone, yet they both have intense, highly saturated colors and are beautiful in their own right :kiss2:

Thanks @natasha-cupcake, @MeowMeow and @icy_jade! It is a yummy hot pink that turns reddish pink in artificial light!
