They are all gorgeous but I think the spess has the most interesting cut and I can imagine it in many styles, so most curious about that one!
 
I voted Emerald, because I'd be curious to see what you'd do with it and I don't think I've seen anything green from you. ;-)

But, the opal seems more loose and organic, not like the traditionally well cut stones like I have seen you make, so maybe see where that one goes?
 
Spessartine is a very nice Garnet to wear. Single refractive made the garnet mor attractive in sun than double refractive in my opinion. But the Emerald clearity is very very good. How big the Stones?

I agree, thank you! The emerald is only 2ct. The spess is 3ct, spinel 2.5ct, and opal 4.2ct.
 
The problem is you own too many amazing stones :lol-2:

Kind of you to say! Sometimes I feel like they're on the smaller side compared to others, but I suppose we all do the best we can within our budgets and quality parameters.
