Caught an oval shaped bug

[Deia]

I am slowly coming back to PS after a long hiatus with occasional lurking, and all of the sudden I felt in need of oval shaped coloured gems. DIdn't want to spend much but found two I really loved. I've just received two stones from Jeff Davies - a Lavender Quartz and an Amethyst.

The Lavender Quartz is such a soft looking stone. I love its glow and it's quite the sparkler actually! The cut is wonderful. Tilt window going on but that is purely because of the material I think.

The Amethyst is totally gorgeous! One of the first stones I got as a newbie was a flat looking Amethyst with colour zoning. It is a bit sad looking. Not this one! Super bright, with flashes of blue and pink, totally love it. Again, awesome cutting.

I only have iPhone pictures, so I apologise in advance for the lack of quality and for my gross fingers

Why can't I rotate this one? Argh.

These are both lovely!
They're basically the same size are you going to do something like earrings with them?

Love the cut on both of them! how will you set them?

Pretty! Love the color and the glow. And the size!
Looking forward to seeing what you are doing with them.

I wouldn't mind bugs of this variety either.
