This is a great stone if you’re on a budget and don’t mind the color shift in warm artificial lighting. In natural light, it’s a beautiful pink that can go quite neon at times (photo 3 & 4). In most lighting, however, I noticed slight copper undertones (photo 1 & 2). In the worst case scenario, like in the LED lights in my bathroom (photo 5), it goes very copper. This is the absolute worst it looks.
I paid too much for the stone ($450) because I didn’t check it in bad lighting before I paid.
To be completely honest, I just don’t want it. I would’ve returned it if I could have. So, if you’re on a budget and the stone suits, you, make me an offer and I probably won’t refuse it. There’s no way that I expect you to pay the $450 that I did.
I can also have it recut into whatever shape you like if the 2ct mark is not significant to you. If it doesn't sell, I'll probably turn it into a proper square cushion with a culet rather than a keel.
