This is a gem I truly thought I'd never offer up, but financial things have popped up so I'm giving it a go...and luckily I have another one from the same parcel that I plan to keep :)
This gem is an older material mahenge. I purchased it from Yvonne Raley and then had it recut by Jerry at gemart into a custom cushion style. I have a PS thread with lots of info, so if you're interested you should take a look here:
Please look through the thread as there are lots of pics and also more info about the gem past the first post. Also please note that the pics in the thread that show the lighter orangish color are NOT accurate for color. The pics showing the pinkish red color are much more accurate. It can appear to be a deep reddish magenta color and then switch to more pinkish, just depending on quality/amount of sun. It's a very saturated, beautiful gem. Jerry's recut causes it to just light up in sunlight, it's really lovely. The gem is a chunky little thing with a thicker girdle, as Jerry wanted to retain as much weight as possible.
I know the price is high for a smaller gem; but I'm asking less than I have into it. This material is simply expensive, but for a smaller gem it has quite an impact. I will consider any reasonable offers :)
* gem is .84 ct and 4.8 x 4.8 x 3.95 mm
