Whew, last week was full of gems!
When I received the Dan Stair baby spess asscher on Monday, I turned around and told him I was meant to have his emerald-cut spess too . . . and it arrived on Friday.
The day before, the whopper amethyst I''d asked Peter Torraca to cut for me showed up . . . it was a fantastic week for my mailwoman, with all those signatures required! Poor woman -- she was so used to having to come to the door with a box, she got out of the mailtruck and all the way up to my door on Saturday with a box too, before realizing it was for another address! That was my sign . . . Gem Overload, I am done for the year.
Dan had warned me that the emerald cut was a little darker than the asscher, and had also mentioned that it would probably be difficult b/c it wasn''t a nice convenient standard size at 6x9.6. So, I''ll post a few pics of the stone, then we''ll get down to hammering out what I''d like to do with it.
I do have a solid idea of what I want to do -- I need some help in the implementation b/c I must be having one of my most braindead days ever. But we''ll get to that in a few posts.
