Yeah, pairing it with one of your male lavenders would give normals het amel, charcoal, and lavender. Amel lavenders are opals and are pretty nice.

Charcoal lavenders l've only seen as hatchlings, and they look fairly similar to anery lavenders. Now how they develop I have no idea, anery lavenders go from a steel color to a very nice washed out greyish look - whether or not charcoal lavenders turn out similar or different remains to be seen.

But I would get a female, just so you're not so male heavy. If you decide on a project you might want to start, its easier to get a breeding size male than a female, so if your girl is up to size, would be (relatively) easy to get a breedable male down the road. As opposed if you got a male and decided there was a project you wanted to started and needed to get a female.
