[princessplease]

Wow, that is amazing. I''m in awe!

 

[Lady_Disdain]

Will you ladies promise not to beat me up - I have photos for you!

My new job turned out to be a very large handful - I wasn''t home during daylight hours at all (or that many hours over all, to be honest).

Awesome silky softness! It looks so much better than your avatar picture.

Hand shot! Nails cropped out for lack of a basic mani.

(I have no idea why the posts have a huge white space...)

 

[Savvymon]

Final photo - silver stackers are making a cameo appearance (and complaining that they aren''t looking their best...)

I came back to ogle it again. Amazing colour and love the velvety look.

 

[coatimundi_org]

I''m in love with your stone! Gorgeous color! How will you set it?

 

[tyty333]

I cant believe what a beautiful color that is! So...how do you plan on setting it???

 

[Linda W]

OMG your stone is out of this world. I can honestly say, I never saw a spinel that color. It is neon and lights up

. It is truly beautiful and gorgeous. What a beauty.

Like Coati, how will you set this yummmy stone?

 

[innerkitten]

Gasp! My goodness it''s so neon. I love it.

 

[ahappygirl]

LOVE. IT. Fantastic stone! Thanks for the photos!

 

[T L]

Beautiful,
Reminds me of a very gemmy rhodochrosite from the Colorado mines - yum!!

 

[Lady_Disdain]

Thank you, ladies!

To me, that stone needs a simpler setting, that doesn''t bury it under a lot of details. I was thinking of a simple ring, white metal and just traps or bullets as sidestones. But my heart might be moved by a more unusual setting. Ideas?
