My Spinels

[simplysplendid]

I posted a while ago about raiding my hubby''s paypal account. Anyway, I returned the square pink spinel to Barbara as I didn''t quite like the colour and bought a blue spinel and a periwinkle spinel from Dan Stair with the money refunded. As an advance birthday gift, my hubby paid for the setting of the spinels from Dan Stair and I have set it into a pendant in oxidised gold with baguette and round diamonds..

I also bought two red spinels (one from Richard Homer and the other from Barbara) which I am still considering what to do with it. With my own paypal account, I also bought a round pink spinel from Richard Homer which I have set into a simple solitaire..

Hi Skippy, thanks! Jewelry is my only vice I think.. I have been purchasing gemstones from the web recently because they are so beautiful yet reasonably priced!

Looks like you''ve been bitten by the spinel bug. Great choices.

Beautiful, beautiful pieces. I think I better get cracking and build up my own PayPal account.

Love the pendant and the ring. I know the colors are going to be much more amazing in person.

Thanks for sharing!

Thank you ladies! Hi Chrono, Yes, i have been bitten by the spinel bug.. I love them, other than the red ones, the rest are quite priced quite affordably so they make good fun pieces! I am still looking for a gorgeous red spinel, preferably in a square cushion!
