More Pink Pretties On The Way

[loriken214]

Mine is the one on the left. It is coming from Barry. She''s a 7.3mm round, 1.63 ct.

Not getting the matching one on the right as well? It''ll get pretty lonely all alone.

 

[BWise]

From my monitor I can see the one on the left has more intense pink, is that why you choose it?

 

[mochi]

Oh, pretty....what is it? Malaya??

 

[Linda W]

Lori, what a beautiful color, what will you do with it???

 

[loriken214]

The second one is an emerald cut pink tourmaline from Gary at Finewater.

"It is 4.54 carats, 11.3 x 7.8mm, large stone, virtually flawless and from unheated Nigerian "old mine" tourmaline rough that is almost impossible to find anywhere now (it was mined out about 10 years ago)."

Lori!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That emerald cut is to die for. What a honker that one is. It is gorgeous. How are you going to set it???????

 

[cellentani]

Those are both beautiful! Can''t wait to see what you''re gonna do with them - do you have something already in mind? Hey, how''s the Bev K ring - do you wear it much?

 

[chrono]

Aha! You do have a friend lined up for the RB already.

Actually, Chrono, the sister belongs to a fellow PSer. I just asked Barry if he had another "more pink" stone and he came up with this one....a Mozambique tourmaline. I''m SO excited that Barry had another little round one.

And quite a friend she is! I am soooo in love with that tourmaline. For some reason, I have such a thing for pink step cuts. Fabulous.
