Gene's newest stones (precision gem)

I got something from the Sep drop but only received the garnet a few days ago so here they are.

4.405 ct rhodolite garnet from Tanzania

4.235 ct mint tourmaline from Afghanistan

And my bonus gem: 4.73 ct YAG

And in the sun

I’d actually only ordered the garnet and tourmaline, but was accidentally sent the YAG instead of the garnet by mistake and then Gene asked me to keep the YAG and then sent me the garnet after he got it back from his other client (don’t worry, I heard he was going to custom cut her another YAG). So apart from the initial worry ended up totally happy with what happened since I got 3 stones instead of 2 (ikr!!)…:P2

Thank you @PrecisionGem! =)2

And the stones are all beautifully cut. Can’t wait to set them! :kiss2::kiss2::kiss2:

Now that’s some great customer service from @PrecisionGem :kiss2:
I love all three but that red garnet looks so darn juicy!
 
You got the tourmaline? I’m so excited to see your pics! :dance:

I got to play with the amazing cushion ring Gilded Lane has recently (Gene cut the stone, and the number of expletives that escaped my mouth every time I looked at it...) and FELL IN LOVE, but can’t swing that one right now. When I saw the asscher AND it might actually fit into a setting I already have, I’m hoping to make a pretty fantastic “consolation prize”. ;)

Oh boy, I know just the one you’re referring to..and hot damn, it’s stunning! :kiss2:
@athenaworth always finds the best things!

Here’s hoping the tourmaline you ordered is just as gorgeous.
 
Ooh I'd love to see natural light footage of the spinel. Great price for size!
 
Have you received it yet?

Yes! Been a hectic week. It’s not as deeply saturated as the GL stone, but it’s very bright and very lovely. D6335E85-C999-43F4-9995-573C8AA59832.jpeg60EF6AA3-CC59-4C15-9D6D-9FD63984BEE3.jpeg

Congrats!! That looks beautiful. Did you say you have a setting in mind?
 
Although now that I accessed my collection, I realize how many similar stones I have (but not in this cut!!). #psproblems.

We do tend to like what we like!! No problem with that.
 
Some new stones up today including a blue sapphire, a pale yellow sapphire and a fairly impressive hot/neon pink lab created ruby:

@PrecisionGem,
Are you accepting peeps from Europe to subscribe to your mail drop again please?
I opted out at your request when GDPR was being introduced.
TIA.

DK :))
 
The pretty little blue sapphire has been sold. I hope a PSer bought it. I’d love to see consumer photos of it.
 
You could follow on twitter, that way I wouldn't have your email in my database and be guilty of high crimes in the EU.

Gene,
Thanks for getting back to me, however I do not do IG or Twitter, sorry!

I got it. I'm going on vacation soon so Gene will ship it to me in the new year. I will post photos of it and a stoplight red Kenyan ruby I got from Gene a while ago.
