After I have this teal sapphire rough cut and sent to her, she commented why I keep buying these dark looking stones. Her opinion changed 180 degrees after she tried it on her own hands though. 😝
(This is not yet set, it is on a blank setting just so she can see how it looks like)
NOT FOR SALE - Bicolore Sapphire +8ct
A nice round bicolore that I saw few months ago
It changes from the classic cushions and oval shapes.

It’s normally salmon pink, then when light/ or sun comes in, it shines with a golden opalescent effect. More side-by-side video if this next to a pink sapphire in comment.
Natural sapphire, unheated, 6.2*8.3mm 1.7ct
This 2.5ct sapphire has been certified overseas as Padparadscha. Personally, I disagree. I think it’s a bit too pink. What constitutes Pad color, in your opinion? How do you feel about the label being thrown around in the industry? Is it truly a broad category, or are sellers using it as a way to command higher prices for what are actually pink and/or orange sapphires? Are less reputable labs exacerbating the issue by labeling pads too leniently? Would love to hear what y’all think about this topic.
With fall around, thought of sharing these beauties that carry hues of autumn/fall.

Thought it was time to get a dedicated lens for the stones using my DSLR. Took these with no tripod, and the pics came out nice. Looking forward to a proper set up to take pics and vids.
Thanks for looking.
I'm recently into crafting, and I want to craft some moonstone bracelets because I LOVE LOVE LOVE them. However, I don't yet have the eye to know if they are good quality moonstones or not.
I bought this strand online, and I'm wondering what you think of the quality of these moonstones.
If they are of good quality I'm thinking of creating more to share with friends and family. What do you think ??
These photos were taken outside under sunlight on a very sunny day! Sometimes they seems to have good flash under some lighting but on other lights they seem quite white. Not sure if its because they are in the form of beads and it is inevitable (because I've only had moonstone rings before) or not.
For your reference the larger moonstones are 6mm round moonstones, and I bought them online for around 100 dollars for 60 stones.
The smaller ones I don't really remember, but I would like to know if the larger moonstones were worth the price!
The other beads are 925 Sterling silver and was made with elastic bands.
