See what Swala has new. I would buy both of them if I had the funds lying around. I love the pear

MAHENGE ****!!!

Yum.

Drooooooooool

How would everyone rate the beauty of these particular stones (completely disregarding the prices)?

 

[pregcurious]

Wow, I love them, especially that pear.

Given the size and the color, the price does not seem high. The prices for all Mahenges above 3K are up into the sky. The only thing is, Swala's pictures are hard to read... I assume they are very saturated, and the first one looks more saturated than the second one, but it is always hard to tell. Nice cut on the pear.

For how little I seem to know, IMO they are wonderful examples of Mahenge.

 

[talamasca]

Mmmmmm gorgeous, especially the pear

 

[y2kitty]

Anybody want to go halfsies with me on one?

How would we split it?

If I had not already bought the one I did, I would buy that pear even at it's price

Didn't read the other comments, but they're very pink, not pinkish red, which is typically the most valuable color for a mahenge. I've seen more saturated stones, but they're pretty.

 

[centralsquare]

They are certainly large!

I love the colour on both, but I'm not crazy about the cut on the oval one. If I was loaded, I might buy that pear, though.

This one is a little bigger but I much prefer this colour.

I think this pear is delicious too but it’s also sold?

These two are finer Mahenges (just based on pictures as I’ve not seen these four stones in person) than the 2 new ones.

Gulp!! I will have the EC. GORGEOUS

 

[Arkteia]

Chrono, you have found a very good way to compare colors! I never saw such red colors...

 

[NKOTB]

WOW!!!

 

[pregcurious]

Wow, that pear is amazing.

 

[bright ice]

I guess these red colors are just not coming out of the mines anymore! What a SHAME
