Precision Gem 2.91 ct. Spinel in LOGR

[Monpetitbijoux]

Although I am Canadian, I did have the opportunity to take advantage of Gene's 4th of July sale

I absolutely love this Tajikistan spinel from Gene, it glows and sparkles like crazy! Here are the specs: 2.91 ct. (9.6x7.4). I recently had it set in a LOGR setting I won from one of the auctions.

Wow, I love your taste, but even more, I love the initiative you take and how fast you work - you have bought and successfully set a lot of beautiful stones recently. Good on you!

 

[Monpetitbijoux]

Thanks, Minousbijoux! I am relatively new to this world of coloured stones, but it is VERY addictive

 

[NKOTB]

Lovely, fellow Canadian! The pink spinel I got from the same sale will also be one of my first setting projects.

Gorgeous! I have its big sister from the sale being set right now. It came out fantastic and that pointy oval is my favorite cut. I have 3 of them.

 

[Monpetitbijoux]

Kelpie and NKOTB - that is awesome, I can't wait to see how both of your settings turn out- maybe when all of our projects are completed we can post them on PS together- what a great reunion that would be

That's really pretty! I love colored stones on very delicate diamond bands...

 

[Monpetitbijoux]

Thanks Frekechild!

Perfect marriage of stone and setting, lovely!

 

[Arkteia]

[Monpetitbijoux]

Well done! Super pretty. Love how beautiful it looks on your hand.

 

[Monpetitbijoux]

bright ice - thanks so much, your aqua is to die for BTW!!!!

Novel - thanks for the wonderful compliment, for some reason I think ovals are more flattering on me than other shapes.

Beautiful! I love the delicate setting you put it in...really compliments the stone!

 

[pregcurious]

Wow, congrats!

Wow, talk about delicate! The band is super thin but it also makes the stone pop.

BTW, you don't think the band's too thin? Please don't get me wrong, I love thin bands but this one looks scarily thin.

 

[Monpetitbijoux]

Tyty33 and Pregcurious- thanks so much!!!!

Chrono - I know what you mean, but the length of the ring is thicker than you can see in the photo (does this make sense?) , which might make up for the lack of width. But I guess that is the sacrifice you make for this type of setting !
