Show us your Mahenge Spinels

[Lisa Loves Shiny]

And this is a very successful buy - one of Tan's latest Mahenges at old price. I think it is 2.2 ct or so - I have to organize my paperwork and the stone was bought a while ago. It said, SI, but it is pretty clean, I am unafraid of bezeling it, if nothing better comes to mind. It is pretty glowy. The only minus is a tiny window but with a color like this, and an old price, I am going to put up with it!

The color is breathtaking.

HKK, this is the second picture of yours I can't see. Is it just my computer?

 

[chrono]

I can't see it too.

 

[Kismet]

I can see it. Browser is firefox 6.0.2

 

[LD]

I can see it and I use Internet Explorer.

I uploaded them as .bmp instead of .jpeg and I was pleased because the color is not washed out. However, if some of you can't see them, well that is problematic.

We have IE at work and i cannot see it

 

[y2kitty]

Can you see these?

 

[chrono]

YES! Thank you. Lovely pieces of jewellery - do you intend to wear them as a set?

 

[y2kitty]

I do sometimes. I have a gold ring that is yellow, pink, and white gold so I will wear that as well to unify my gold colors...if that makes sense.

I love the EW setting of that ring HKK! what are the dimensions of the oval, if you don't mind my asking? I'm thinking of setting an oval like that as well.

 

[NKOTB]

Me too, thanks. They are both really nice! I especially love that pendant.

Adding my newbie to the bragging thread.

Just realized I never added my little mahenge to this thread... The stone is a 4.8 x 4.9 cushion from Gary Braun and the setting is from lan.bo on eBay.

Here is my new Mahenge, a 1.41 carat that I bought from Tan. My photos are not the best. There is no brown at all in the stone.

Hey, TL!!!

Not by much. I have pangs of guilt on the one I just sold. Oh well.

Love your pear stone. You were so lucky to buy that when you did.

 

[minousbijoux]

Lauren, that is one hecka gorgeous ring The stone is beautiful and intense and the ring has just enough bling to step it up while not at all competing with that pear - perfection. Sigh of contentment.
