New Stones

I got some new sunstones yesterday - all are a tad lighter in person than in the pics (on my monitor at least)...

Oregon sunstone, 5.5mm (0.53 carat)

Oregon sunstone, 6mm (0.57 carat)

Oregon sunstone, 6mm (0.81 carat)

Oregon sunstone, 6mm (0.83 carat)

Oregon sunstone, 6mm (0.94 carat)

Oregon sunstone, 7mm (1.14 carat)

This will hopefully inspire me to buy the $350 tool I need to set square cushion cut gemstones (and practice, practice, practice my technique - other shapes are harder to set than rounds...)

And finally a lone Arizona garnet (5.5mm; 0.73 carat)
