Some old unset sparklies

[MakingTheGrade]

These are some of the first gems I bought and never really thought to set, thought I''d get around to taking some pics of them though.

First up is a little spess, it''s included and yellow, but it''s a fun little ember.

My first purchase: a rhodolite pear

A 7mm morganite. It's a bit more pink IRL. It's not included, it's just dirty..

Haha, I know you''re all sick of seeing it but I couldn''t help myself! It''s photogenic and I wanted to play with it in the little setting.
The blue tourmaline (this one is actually getting set of course).

Thanks! I picked it up on the cheap just for fun. My skin tone really doesn''t lend itself to wearing orange :/

HI MTG,

Lovely stones. I personally love that spess, teehee.

 

[MakingTheGrade]

Hehe, thanks MT!

Who knows, maybe one day I''ll go ahead and set it in an Elixir from Sally. There''s nothing remotely orange in my closet though...

It would be lovely in that setting, great idea! How about you get it, and wear it for a while, then give it away as a present?

They are all stunning! Especially loving the tourmaline and spess.

You are shaming everything else on this page by posting that tourmaline here.
