Very pretty!

Your spinel looks very similar to the one I got from Gene a month or so ago. I''d love to see your setting ideas!

I think I would be tempted to pass on that info to Mr Wise. I would think that would make him feel very nervous indeed. I doubt it was the kind of service he (or you) paid for either.

I did call and tell the woman (Amy) who sometimes answers the phone about this. So, hopefully she will pass it along.

We met with Eric and Mark Saul while in Tanzania this week. Eric explained how difficult it is to mail things from Africa, so the T-shirt is kind of a decoy, since if you tell the shipping company that you are mailing a gemstone they won''t do it. So they are mailing a t-shirt and every thing is fine.

I wondered if that was the reason. But I thought the t-shirt was more so if the package was accidentally opened, a t-shirt would be seen and not the stone. But this makes sense.

But Eric still insures the stone as it is being shipped, right?
