NorCal GTG 1/17 Pics

[AmberGretchen]

Hi all,

I thought I''d go ahead and post some of the pics from the NorCal GTG this past weekend. It was so lovely to meet everyone (and renew some previous acquaintances) and see everyone''s beautiful pieces in person.

I apologize that some of these photos may not be the best quality. Also, some of them I''m not sure who owns the stones that are pictured, so ladies, if you could chime in and claim your lovelies, that would be great

Without further ado, the first few shots will be of this box of colored stone yumminess:

An EC Pink Tourmaline (I think) up close

Another pink tourmaline (again, I think - hopefully this box''s owner will chime in and verify!)

 

[AmberGretchen]

And I think this one is a green tourmaline - the pictures don''t do these stones justice, unfortunately - they were really lively and pretty IRL

A lovely little box with some beautiful pastel colors...I''ve got several shots of this, though again, none do these pretty stones justice

One more of these pale beauties - really wish I had been able to capture them better

Here are some darker cousins, same owner as the previous pastel stones

Bear with me, there are lots of shots of these guys - I was trying to make sure I captured each stone at least once...

Another of Harleigh''s treasures - some minty green stones - she has a set of earrings, bracelet and necklace that she wore to her wedding, they are lovely - here''s the bracelet first...
