I fell off the wagon, and bought some more gemstones....
Well, I have been bad again, LOL. I found a new seller on ebay, and took a chance. You either get a real bargain, or you loose your shirt.
Topaz comes in a number of colors, so I bid on some stones to test in my gem lab.
They test topaz, and I have visible natural inclusions in two of the three. I still need to check the third under my microscope, but I suspect it will show the same.
What do you think?
The emerald cut green, and the Imperial (brown); are natural stones. I know they are small, LOL; but I like them okay! I still need to verify the pear shaped green is natural, but I have already done great on the other two!
Gemstones just sneak up on me sometimes, but I don't run too hard, ROFLOL!
Hope you enjoyed these stones, I have.
sir smithlabs! those don't look small to me. What did the brown one test? how much are those things worth?
I was having fun on the size, the big brown one shows topaz, and it is natural material, and 211 Carats. My list doesn't go that high, so i am not sure, but lots of cash.
:)>Lots of cash but you didn't spend lots of cash for them?
No with a new seller not many people bid. I can measure the stones here, so I go ahead and bid.
:)>So hopefully the seller will be selling the same way for a long time.
As their feedback comes up, their income does too.
I got several dozen tsavorite Garnet gemstones the same way. Hard to find, and very nice stones!
:)>So you can resell those to jewelry makers?
Keeping them, LOL. :)
I like them....
