Go get it! lol

 

[y2kitty]

I'm out of cash & the price of gold make me unable to purchase anymore. But the smaller Mahenge oval I got from Dana on the 4th is being set. I'll be ok.

 

[NKOTB]

Ha! I was going to post the same thing! Want but can't have. Someone put me out of my misery!

 

[y2kitty]

I find this aqua nice too:

[y2kitty]

And its gone! Fess up if it was you.

 

[Aoife]

It wasn't me, but I was peeved to see the greyish spinel Asscher was gone, too. Because, seriously, I am needing an Asscher.

Just sayin'.

Dana told me months ago there were two Asschers and one was violet gray and the other pink lavender. Send him an email and see what happened to the second one.

Peter Torraca has a nice amethyst asscher for sale.
I have a blue topaz asscher on layaway with Doug at Bespoke. It will be my first (other than an overly dark lab sapphire)!

Hello,

I just got word from Dana that I got the spinel. I am very excited!

There does need to be a warning on this website that CS are addictive and that an intervention may be needed. This is my 3rd gem since mastercutgem's big sale on July 4th. I am now afraid to look at any more gems. I keep telling myself I will just window shop and look what I do.

Herekittykitty- As soon as I saw your post, I clicked on the link and bought it. So , you get the blame/praise for helping me to obtain this beautiful gem.

Your husband can invite me to the intervention.

We would love to see pictures.

Have you made any progress on setting your other spinel?

Only your third? LOL. I hear ya. When I saw this spinel, I sent my husband an email with the subject line: "Please talk me off a very expensive cliff." Then I went for a nap with my kids and hoped that when I got up, it would be gone, which it was (thank you!). Please post pics when you get it, familynurse!

I actually bought the grey-lavender asscher spinel this morning and I was SOOOO tempted to get that mahenge at the same time! So glad someone here got it!

familynurse: It's a slippery slope, that's all I can say! Addictive little devils...

Congratulations on your purchase!

kt: Good for you! I hope you love it when you get it. And we want photos.

I've been telling Jeff White that one of these days I'll be bugging him to cut an Asscher for me, so although I'm feeling the hankering, I can wait for a while.

I think.

I have two more projects from JKT, and a big one with Michael E., and then I'll start thinking about the Asscher.

 

[lavatea]

You guys quit talking about asschers, seriously! I already have the bug again from having my ring completed. I don't need any more reason to e-mail Doug about cutting something for me...

I don't blame you, that's the stone that started me thinking about them again. So pretty!

[pregcurious]

Congrats!

I was able to stop buying CSs when I saw how much it would cost to set them

That's no joke

It's a good thing I love my little collection of loose gems so much
and enjoy taking pictures of them as much as I do....

 

[bright ice]

Congratulations, it looks like a very nice spinel!

 

[y2kitty]

Dana's just killing me in general:

No warnings:
I have decided not to post when I am putting new gems on as Murphy's law will always prevail as it seems something will happen and it makes me look like I do not care about my clients which is the furthest from the truth. I do care greatly about my clients as most have become good friends...

 

[NKOTB]

Yes, that emerald cut garnet is a stunner!

Thankfully, someone bought it.

I should post the other things I have seen online that I would appreciate someone buying!

 

[NKOTB]

Yeah, like this red spinel pair:

Have you ever used their "make an offer" feature?

Oh those are pretty! Never used "make an offer" though.

 

[Arkteia]

I tried it with Paraiba Int, on Etsy, and they did lower the price, but just a little. The good thing is, their pictures are true to life.

 

[Arkteia]

Sorry, ebay, of course. They have a store there and you can see most of their stock on ebay, too. Bottom line is, their prices are a little bit negotiable. But the spinels are expensive!

 

[athenaworth]

KT, FamilyNurse, did you get your stones yet?
