Please help me choose the next stone to set...

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.

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.

That's one of my only larger stones, so it's deceiving. lol

Darn it... the emerald is winning. I was really rooting for the spess. Not sure I have the funds at the moment to do the emerald justice.

i voted orange !

 

[Saphir]

About 1ct.!

Im sorry, i mean price difference!

Oh apologies! I should've figured that from the "k." lol I don't recall the price of the spess, but I can definitely tell you the emerald was much more... several thousand more.

 

[Saphir]

Spess has

When u have the money buy both. Both great stones. The Spess would be a must have to me because of the rare cut for an Spess, most are when oval round, stone.has excellent clarity and nice color. Emerald has great color and emerald cut which is not really rare for sn Emerald but overall great piece!
