OK, here are my new beauties that I have bought and has not photographed yet - I am just waiting for inspiration, or something else.
Just a list, to keep myself motivated.
- Gene's 1.59 ct Lake Barringo ruby arrived today. My smaller one (from him) looks brighter (it is a cushion cut) but this one has this velvety glow. It is like purple-violetish velvet. Beautiful stone, and I am thinking of a jeweler to set it.
- The other one is a Tanzanian spessartite. It is beautiful, of this golden-orange color. Not orange like my Namibian but also spectral, neon- colored. I do not know who to send it to for setting or how to set it but since it is such a beautiful stone and so beautifully cut, I think people would like to set it. I wonder why it stayed on his website for so long, unless everyone else had his share of Gene's spessartines.
- And Amguy, your spinel is dark blue, no grey...as you have promised. It looks very much like a sapphire, and I like the color. Pretty nice stone.
- Also, one of Osirisgem's stones is a beauty! Another one is a nice rhodolite, large, fine for the price. But the smaller one is so bright...and the color is so unusual. Hopefully, the inspiration will come! I am just starting this thread so that there would be no way for me to wiggle out of photography.
