I'll take some pictures tomorrow. They're beautiful, but they're very rough. They are pretty small nickel and dime size and not round at all. The odd shapes make me want to get creative with some cast settings, but I never will. I've had them for years sitting in a jar of water or mineral oil. I don't even remember what the liquid is. lol
I liked most of the Jasper Stone's color scheme, but i most isterested in the Aventurine Stone had the silver flame appearance in the right light. Great post

You have some truly beautiful pieces both here and in your store.
I never knew Tigers Eye came in different colors than the gold, I looked up images of both the green and blue and have to say they are some of the most beautiful stones I have ever seen. Makes me wonder yet again why people bother with diamonds. lol
I cut this one last year that looks like a volcano on it. Let me look at one of my Instagram page and see if I can find a picture of it. Sorry about your bot problem, hope it's not contagious. Lol j.k.
It's very relaxing to me. I have to concentrate so hard it kinda drowns out the rest of the world. My version of meditation I guess lol. Google your area to see if there is any gem and mineral societies near you. They usually have some lapidary classes and fieldtrips to collect rocks.
Yeah, rock show!!! I am obsessed with stones. The fifth one down is my favorite. It feels like the wood grain behind it almost!
@dirtyhippie
Thanks so much. I put it on an old rotting log for the photo shoot. Nice natural look...
Have you ever cut an opal? I have some raw opals that I'm not sure what to do with.
Yes I cut opals sometimes. What type of rough do you have?

Neat I look forward to seeing the pictures. Opals are so beautiful

That is absolutely beautiful. Is it a mix of all three colors?
Just don't piss of anyone with more money than human decency. (in reply to the bot comment)
Nice job! I’ve always wanted to try cutting and polishing gemstones. It seems like it would be so rewarding.
