It''s absolutely gorgeous and such a deep orange..no dark shadows but unfortunately my camera doesn''t do this stone justice.

I dropped it on the ground so decide to just take a picture of it, turned out pretty neat!

Very pretty Mochi. I have to say that you''re very brave and daring with your gemstone pictures. I would be terrified to put mine in a flower or on the ground. I so easily lose things!! You are very creative!

TL.. Thank you!

I have dropped a few gemstones trying to take pictures. I dropped my sapphire in the pool and had my husband dive for it (I couldn''t because I had my scrubbs on to go to work, and it was awful cold). Dropped my peach tourmaline in the grass but that was easy to find. The hardest one to find was the opal, that took a good 15 minutes, but I was not about to give up!

But I love taking pictures... must be in my genes!

I dropped my garnet a few times too. Your spess is beautiful and the cut is brilliant!

Mochi, you are too funny! What a gorgeous spess, it is literally on fire!
