Another Gene stone?

Another Gene stone?

No, another fine source for lovely gem specimens.

Had the garnet set today in a temp setting so I can live with her a bit and see how she performs. And because I want to focus on the spinel as my next project while still sporting something new.

Pics are indoors since it was dark out when I finally got home. Will get some in natural daylight tomorrow.

And this morning, in cloudy/overcast natural daylight ... appearing much more purple than the reddish/wine color.

Love it! A temporary setting - what a great way to be able to wear your sparklies asap! The color looks so beautiful!
