Pretty! And as always, I love the sapphire!

Good luck in Baltimore!! If you find yourself around the inner harbor/federal hill area, I highly recommend Matsuri if you like Japanese food :)

I love the variety of Garnets and some of the ones posted already have been breathtaking.

My My 2.33 Morogoro Garnet from Rick at Art cut gems.
I was a little flat about it as Sally from Heart of Water is setting it said it has lots of extinction and is definitely NOT a night time stone. But she just emailed me to tell me that in daylight it is magical.
Kate, I''m glad it worked out.

Here's a clearer picture of my spessartite. There's no brown or yellow. It's filthy, of course.
