Some new stones

I attended our town’s bi-annual gem and mineral show today.
I bought these stones. Top two are Persian. I couldn’t resist!
The bottom three are Kingman.

And for your viewing pleasure, some blurry photos of actual Lander Blue…$100/ct!

@Stracci You chose some mighty pretty turquoise but, ooh la la, those 2 Persian turquose cabs 🩵🩵. Looking forward to seeing what jewelry you’ll make with all these beauties.

Very pretty stones. Lots of pyrite in those Persians and that water web Kingman is lovely. Hoot! Hoot! I’m a late night owl. I’m actually listening to an owl hooting in the woods behind my house.

Now I have to come up with new ideas
and buy more silver :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

@Steve That looks like a real good time!!
Bring lots of folding money, vendors always love cash.

Your new stone acquisitions are lovely @Stracci.
I look forward to seeing the awesome jewelry you embellish them with.

Personally, I patiently await the day you share an awesome belt buckle crafted by your hands! :wink:

@Ravenscry I never really thought about making a buckle.
I’ll definitely consider that in the future!

You’ve got my vote! I think it would make for an awesome compliment to the other fabulous pieces you’ve made.
