My ring with red Tanzanian spinel from Swala

Beautiful color and setting!
 
But now, it is summertime, the Soccer World Cup, everyone is friendly and having fun
:eek2:Does that mean you've got tickets to the World Cup? If so, you're doubly lucky to own the gorgeous spinel and be at the sporting event.

We did - we are leaving soon. The atmosphere is very friendly, even at Russia/Spain match, everyone was very polite.
Yesterday the Columbians lost to the Brits. I feel sorry for the Columbians, they are very sincere fans.

The top of performance, as I think, were the Japanese who demonstrated great game (but lost to Belgians at the end, 2:3). They left their locker room in immaculate state with the word "thank you" in Russian.

This... they were winning and lost at the very end. They were devastated, but what a spirit!

Wow...I missed this....stunning in its beauty and simplicity. This has to be one of my favorite rings.

Have a great time...there is something about being part of the passion one sees at international games.
 
Thank you, @leslie1956

Spinels vs rubies? Case-by-case, I think.

I never understood what was sitting in the Black Prince spinel of the British crown. Apparently, it is a ruby set to fill in a hole from the drilling - at one point, the 170-ct spinel was worn as a pendant!
The spinel is prettier.
 
Spinelicious. Delicious color and yummy setting. TDF :kiss2:
 
That is amazingly beautiful and has that candy colored look. :lickout:

Someone on PS said that we need a fainting emoji and I agree!
 
What a colour!!! It’s absolutely beautiful. Stunning setting too. Matching the beauty of your stone
 
Gorgeous stone!!! The person who called it a flame colour is a idiot. Flame spinels have more orange and often browns in them than yours does.
