Colors of Venice
09/October/2011 09:07 PM Filed in: Latest Cut stones
The stones this week have some of the colors I saw in Venice. Here's a shot I took looking down the Grand Canal last month.
4 new stones tonight, mostly in the blue's and greens, and one pink.
This first stone is a Montana Sapphire from the Missouri River.
Next is a Tanzanite
I do have a just a few more small pieces of the Mahenge Spinel left, so I thought it was time to cut one. The design is a new round I came up with for smaller stones. I think it worked very well.
This last stone is a Nigerian Paraiba Type Tourmaline. Now I have not sent any of this material out to be tested, as its rather expensive, so I am just selling the cut stones at a normal tourmaline price. This one is done in an opposed bar cut.
