[virgoruby]

I''ve finally made my first Mahenge purchase!

Here is the vendor pic, though it might be teeny tiny, as I couldn''t work out how to enlarge it..
I''ll post lots of photos when I get it though.

 

[Lovinggems]

My newest purchase, demantoid garnet from Gemline, they have some of the nicest gems online.

Everyone is buying very pretty gems lately; I have to keep away from this thread if I want to keep my shopping list short and manageable.

So you snagged that one eh? I''m so jealous, that''s one of the nicest, deepest green demantoids I''ve seen!

 

[Cind11]

Virgoruby, I love your Mahenge. And Lovinggems, that is one gorgeous demantoid. I am getting the violet spinel from Gary''s latest drop. Too bad I can''t seem to upload the picture! I hope I like it!

Sure TL! I do not really like the design IRL, I will prefer a more simple, sleek modern feel to it, hence I decided to change to one with just a diamond around the stone, this new one will sits higher too
There you go,

haha Sarahbear tks! You have some stunning jewelry too

There was a thread on sharing our jewelry collection, (quite a while back) I have forgotten who started it. I thought that is cool, can''t wait to see what other pser have in their boxes!

 

[davi_el_mejor]

My new Sphalerite, what an interesting stone! I wish it wasn''t so soft

 

[T L]

Ooooooh please don''t pick up the sphalerite with metal tweezers or any metal. Use rubber grip tweezers instead and keep it in a plastic gem jar.

Yup yup!! I have major sparkly in mind that I''m saving up for, but I keep getting distracted by gems along the way to this major sparkly. Distracted Indy=distracted pocketbook=longer road to the major sparkly.

 

[Arcadian]

low on time so will post these real quick:

I have''nt received these yet, but should reach my home sometime in the next week. I don''t know when I''ll be able to get pictures of them since I''m on the go so much right now...

I''ve had good luck with this seller so will certainly keep them on my list.


30X30x5 Tigereye

 

[Arcadian]

15 X 20 X 5 Imperial jasper. the seller calls it orbicular jasper which looks different from the type I''ve seen before.

 

[Arcadian]

this is a 18 X 22 X 10 Variquoise. I thought it was really neat looking.
