D&T,
That 2nd picture is awesome. The peridot just screams in the setting. It looks like a freshly cut kiwi fruit.
Ditto what Chrono said! Mine is that shade of green as well, although you''d never know it from my mini photoshoot!

Lovely pendant! Hmm...that may need to be my next project, haha. I''m currently torn between a slider pendant, a key pendant with a stone, or a green garnet ring.. Arg, choices!

Gailey -- I like your box! I just saw these the other day at an online vendor and told my husband how cool they are. He MAY have rolled his eyes.

TL -- I''m really loving your minty Beryl!

LtFirecracker -- Great color I''m glad you love it.

D&T -- I am very jealous!!! I thought that stone was cool but I''m glad you bought it. I think you have very good setting ideas. Lovely!

I know, I know! Unfortunately, work these days means I am barely home during daylight hours. This weekend, maybe!

Ice,

You aren''t off the hook yet.

I don''t want to start a new thread yet, but here is one quick shot of my Mahenge spinel. It was taken with my p&s rather than my DSLR, which takes better photos. Unfortunately we have misplaced the charger during our most recent move. Hopefully this will assuage the photo hungry folks for a bit

I just snapped up this bargain priced Mahenge spinel from Gene at Precision Gem. Link I never thought that I would see one for this price. It is about the color, of course!
