It is a 1.39 carat mahenge spinel cut by Gene Flanigan at Precision Gems. It's described as: "Gem 637 - Red Spinel - 1.39 ct. This stone is from the Mahenge area of Morogoro Tanzania is a red with a slight purple pink. The photo looks a bit more red than in person. There is one inclusion in the top left corner that should be covered with a prong. Measures 7.82 x 5.85 mm Color 4, Clarity 4-"

Here's my #1 contender from LOGR. I'm haloed out right now, unless I had the money for a Leon. Not likely!

Oooh! That's pretty! Are you gonna set it East/West?
I was thinking about a halo for this stone and figured it would have to be $$ custom $$ anyway. Ouch!  And can you imagine LEON? Oh mamma!

I know!! I'd really have to find myself a sugar daddy! I do think this LOGR would be pretty though.

LOL don't we all!  I think that setting would do nicely too.

That's running through my head. I'm also thinking a twisted rope type solitaire.
