Here's a spinel I've had for awhile, just been too busy to share photos!
It's a beautifully delicate orangish pink, reminiscent of that fabled padparadscha color (at least for me!)

1.81 ct

All done! Thanks for looking.
No plans to set it, but I do like to look at it!

Yeah, I love the color too but I just have too many rings and I'm not a pendant gal! I guess when I get bored of my current rings and clear out my jewelry box a little..

Is there such a thing as too many rings? Don't tell my rings that :bigsmile: But I relate to not being a pendant girl! All of mine just lie there while I wear the same diamond pendant every day... So sad.

I love the colors of both those spinels. They remind me of some of my favorite roses. :love:
