malaya garnet

[lovegem]

I just want to share with you some pictures of my malaya garnet.
specs: 8 mm. 1.9 ct. from a gem cutter in NY.
The pictures were taken at night.

here are the pics I put together. Hope it is not too small.

yum

It looks like an orange sticky candy lozenge!

Congratulations.

What is your plan for the stone?

Wow, what a striking stone! Very beautiful! And I am curious too, what do you plan on doing with it?

 

[Linda W]

That is a really pretty stone. I am anxious to see how you will set it also.

It''s very pretty and such a great fall color!!

Very nice - and I love the colour!

are you going to set it??

 

[lovegem]

Thanks all for looking.

I plan to make it into a ring. I thought about making it into a pendant, but then I figure a ring may show the color of the stone better. This ring project may have to wait a little while, because I have to get another costly ring done.

Beautiful beautiful color! I think a ring is an excellent idea! You''ll be able to admire it as much as you like!
