Well now that wasn''t very nice, taunting us like that then making us wait for pictures! Lol hurry hurry!

 

[mochi]

LOL MK!! I''m back with quickie shots. I love this stone, it''s absolutely a wonderful cut by Mr.Annonymous, just lovely. It''s has more of a blue undertone than yellow but the pictures shows yellow at times.

I must have one . . . that's perfect! Who cut yours?

ETA: I see "Mr Anonymous" but I'm not familiar with who that would be . . . are we not allowed to say here?

 

[jcrow]

lovely color!

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Mochi, you're killing me here!!!!!

It's beautiful, and Mr. Anonymous is fantastic at this asscher cutting thing! I'm going to have to . . . ummm, yeah . . .

BTW, I'm getting my first Jeff White Asscher in a few weeks.

Hi Mochi

That stone looks yummmmy, I love the color of it. You had better tell us you are going to set it???

 

[chrono]

Mochi,
The colour does remind me of asparagus.

Lauren,
Slightly off topic, but what gemstone type is JW cutting for you? A few weeks is going to feel like an eternity.

 

[tsavvy]

Very pretty -- cool color, too. Mr. Anonymous asscher cutter has got some talent

 

[packrat]

Oh it''s lovely!
