Found some new cushion cut square quartz again with beautiful tourmaline needle inclusions. Both stones are already listed in my shop for custom "Fold" rings.
The best treasure I got are a total of 10 Tanzanite gem stones in various shapes and sizes ranging from 0.6 to 1 carat. The best thing is they are natural, unheated stones which is pretty rare for Tanzanites. I love those blue sparkling stones with a slight purple hint. They will be used for some unique engagement ring designs.
I also got these natural unheated princess cut sapphires in shades of white, yellow, pink and light blue. So pretty! They range from 3.2 to 4.5 mm. Watch out for some new engagement rings.
I noticed a lot more rose cut gem stones from different suppliers in the trade only section. It's nice to be able to get more varity now for these still pretty rare and unusual cuts. It's so much better to be able to handselect each stone and compare them to each other than having to rely on photos from online sellers. I always like the freeform cuts the best for my rings.
Beautiful rose cut rutilated quartz with very fine golden needle inclusions.
This freeform rutilated quartz has gorgeous fine coppery red inclusions and will look great in a "Pebble" ring design.
Two free form rose cut blue topaz and in the back a rose cut Aquamarine.
Rose cut sapphires. The small blue gem is 8 x 10mm, the pink stone 10 x 13mm.
Free form rose cut Labradorite about 16 x 11 mm.
All those rose cut gems will be set in my "Pebble" ring designs.
Now a have a lot of new treasure to work with and can't wait to have these set in new rings.
