My first precision cut gemstones

[dk168]

DK, you can't say you received your topazes and not post pics!!!!! That's just cruel to keep us in suspense.. [emoji23] [emoji23]

They are just lowly blue Topaz! Vendor's pics are already in the Winding down for 2014 thread.

Did your stones arrive yesterday? Happy with the stones?

 

[dk168]

Nothing yet, however, it is scheduled for today.

Yay

 

[dk168]

They arrived, and they are GORGEOUS!!!

Apology for the pic, just a quick one using my phone at my desk at work.



I am thinking about setting the White Topaz as a single stone bangle, and the Rubellite in an antique-style ring.

Only time will tell what I would do with them. In the meantime, I shall take them out and ogle at them whenever I need a pick me up.

So lovely! More pictures!

Oh my!!! This is what stones should look like
I can see the white topaz in a Jewels by Grace bangle (the variety with one stone in the middle). And the rubellite will shine in a vintage inspired setting . This is great dream candy while you are creating your anniversary ring.

But you probably made more pics!!! Please post them as well. Oh, what fun it is to have 2 tiny boxes with dream candy...

Yay! Sooooo pretty, DK. Can't wait for tons more pictures...even if they are from work. We won't complain.

Thanks everyone for your kind words, and I promise to take more pics. Probably not tonight as the camera battery is dead and I need to give myself a manicure.

Good Gawd that polish is amazing! This makes me lust for a JW-cut gem... Wonder how long his wait is?

He normally quotes 8 weeks. Once a deposit is received, he would add the stone in his cutting schedule.

Gorgeous stones! I love the idea of doing the topaz as a bangle. And of course that red beauty in a ring
