I have a few new stones I cut over the weekend
First up is a Purple Sapphire from Tanzania. This one is 1.24 ct, and has not been heated or treated.

This next stone is a pretty Tourmaline from Afghanistan. There are some eye visible inclusions, but in person it's much cleaner looking than the photo, as the photos then to really bring out any inclusion, especially since they magnify the stone. This one is over 5 cts, so it's a nice size for either a pendant or ring.

This last stone is a Nigerian Spessartite garnet. I don't know why, but the photo shows the stone much more red than it is in person. This one is 3.6 cts. and I got a good buy on these roughs, so it's priced low.
