Something a bit unusual...

[FrekeChild]

I was going to talk about it first, but that''s no fun for me....

 

[FrekeChild]

Lookie! That''s me!

 

[stryeyes102]

Aww, thats just mean!

how about a hint?

 

[FrekeChild]

Sorry it''s taking a while to size them guys. But I do hope it will be worth the wait...

 

[innerkitten]

How exciting. Who is it from?

 

[FrekeChild]

Now what on earth is that?

 

[FrekeChild]

I skipped one in the series so you guys wouldn''t hunt me down...

 

[innerkitten]

I''m waiting.... can''t wait to see!

 

[FrekeChild]

Now for the good stuff. This little guy is incredibly hard to capture in it''s real life state. This is the best of the rainbows I could get off him...(Yes, it''s a boy.)

 

[innerkitten]

Can''t tell what it is? Is this from Dan Stair?

 

[FrekeChild]

Yes, yes it is innerkitten! Nice educated *guess*...sizing still...

 

[MonkeyPie]

OMG YAYYYYYYY!

Aren''t you glad I made you go to the mailbox? Lol!

ELIZABETH SHOW THE BLOODY STONE YOU LITTLE STINKER!

DITTO!!!!

I have to get to the gym...but I am waiting to see what little piece of heaven you got in the mail today!

 

[geckodani]

Imagine him breathing fire.

 

[FrekeChild]

Yikes. SDL, you can get kind of scary... (Sorry for the extra delay guys, I just got some bad news from John B about the stone he was cutting for me...and some technical difficulties.) This caught a little bit of the rainbows...

 

[FrekeChild]

yay little mini rainbows...

 

[FrekeChild]

...a bit blurry...

 

[MonkeyPie]

Wow is it as dark irl as it looks here?

 

[Keepingthefaith21]

Beautiful!!!!!

What''s the plan for him??

 

[FrekeChild]

more...the color is really hard to pick up--but it''s stunning in real life...

 

[FrekeChild]

Yeah, he''s pretty dark, but the rainbows make up for it--it''s like one of those crystals you hang in front of the window...

Ditto

 

[innerkitten]

This looks interesting, beautiful cut. So this is a blue spinel right? It looks a bit purple too. Does this stone change color in different lighting? I have one from him that goes from a darker blue ( like the photo of yours) to a lavander.
What are your thoughts on it so far?

 

[FrekeChild]

This is probably more accurate with the color, but less rainbows..

Oh I like this one, it really shows the cut well. It doesn''t help that it''s cloudy outside does it? Stupid weather!

 

[FrekeChild]

I''m planning on putting it in a solitaire setting. Haven''t figured out what style yet...

 

[FrekeChild]

To show the size in relation to my ring...

 

[FrekeChild]

And the coolest picture of it...I don''t know what the light conditions were on it...

 

[innerkitten]

I love the last two photos. It''s like a steely grape color.

 

[FrekeChild]

Sorry...my mom is on the phone yelling at me (about my dad--I didn''t do anything wrong...)
