First picture taken under LED & fluorescent. Second picture taken under incandescent light. Third picture taken under fluorescent office lamp light. Fourth picture taken outdoors under shaded natural sunlight in December. Note - the sun is very low in the sky in Iowa in December. During the summer months where the sun is higher & more direct, the stone would look much like the incandescent picture. Truly an impressive purple/fuchsia Rhodolite Garnet, shows the classic colorshift these stones are known for. An electiric purple under LED light, going to a hot fuchsia in incandescent & strong sunlight, such as summertime sunlight or farther southern sunlight where it is more direct. Under fluorescent it remains mostly purple, but a hint of pink can be seen & the saturation of color declines a little but is still very desirable. All these shifts are in a bright medium tone, which many of these stones are known to get overly dark after 3 carats or more. This one does not. Very nice cutting proportions. No window. Lots of brilliance & dispersion. Eye clean. These Rhodolites are seen less & less on the market as the finds are drying up, especially in this size & medium tone. Priced to sale!

Vivid, medium tone, bright, top color mixed cushion cut tsavorite from Kenya! Bought as part of a lot of stones. I kept the emerald/octagon cut stone (my personal favorite cut). The mixed cushion cut stone is probably the better one but I'm just crazy about emerald/octagon cut stones ;) Tsavorite is a known day stone; however this stone is one of the rare ones that holds its color indoors and it could be argued that it looks even better indoors! Obviously it's gorgeous outdoors / in sunlight like all tsavorites. If you're looking for a well cut, completely eye clean, top color tsavorite that doesn't go dark or yellow, this is your stone! It's not a huge stone but it's extremely hard to find anything larger with these rare features. 1.61cts 7.1x5.95x4.65mm Mixed cushion cut Eye clean! Videos: https://youtu.be/82n5MLX7WMs https://youtu.be/rj1hnBlcubI https://youtu.be/rlWuluWlWnQ Sorry for the fingerprints on the stone in the videos! Free shipping, no questions asked returns policy :) Has been confirmed natural by my local lab so I offer 100% unconditional no expiry date return policy if your lab says anything different Thanks for looking :) ***This listing is for the mixed cushion cut tsavorite shown in the photos/videos*** ***The emerald/octagon cut tsavorite shown in the photos/videos is not included***

Up for sale is this cute little mahenge spinel cut by Jeff Davies. It would be perfect for a stacker ring. This is a very well cut stone and performs well in most lighting.

I have purchased quite a few different amathysts from Jeff Davies over the years. I have decided it is time to part with a few. This is a beautiful precision cut radiant stone, at 4.19ct it is a great size for a ring, or pendant. The colour of this material really shows off the precision cut. The dimensions are 9.33x9.35x7.49mm. I am happy to ship this worldwide, payment is via PayPal. Loupetroop messenger isn’t working for me, so please email me at amcka98@gmail.com

Guys, I'm tired and I have a toddler and a baby, so these photos are kinda lazy -- thrilled to take better ones if you wish! Scroll all the way to the bottom for some more detailed descriptions for gems with a **; tried to keep it brief at the top. It's impossible to get flattering, straight-on photos of all the gems at once, many are showing a TILT window which isn't from poor cutting! TOP ROW: ## Chrysoberyl $100: 1.55ct, 8x6mm, BRIGHT, silky yellow-green ## Mint green garnet $200: 1.45ct, 7.2 x 4.8mm, precision-cut** MIDDLE ROW: ## Light pink tourmaline $100: 1.63ct, 7.8x7.8mm, precision cut OEC-like round ## Light blue-green tourmaline $100: 1.32ct, 7.1 x 7.1mm, precision cut octagonal step-cut ## Magenta tourmaline $50: 0.89ct, 7.2 x 5.19mm ## Paraiba-like blue tourmaline $400: ~0.9ct, ~7x5mm. Clean, I'd call it "neon", but don't know origin. ## Aquamarine $100: 3.88ct 9.0 x 9.0mm** BOTTOM ROW: ## Pink-orange spinel $100: 1.88ct pear, 10.1 x 6.55mm.** ## SOLD Lavender spinel: 3.03ct oval 9.5 x 7.5mm. ** ## Tanzanite $400: 1.70ct precision-cut heated 6.8 x 6.8mm. ** ## Clear-to-light-green tourmaline $320: 2.58ct, precision cut,11.8 x 5.8mm** ## Tsavorite garnets, matched pair $750: ~10x6mm each, guessing ~5ct total ** Additional details: # Mint green radiant garnet: Precision-cut by Jeff Happeman, internally flawless according to the cutter (and I definitely can’t see anything) # Aquamarine: light blue precision radiant-cut Vietnamese aquamarine. A bold 9mm square! Bought from Litnon, assume heat treatment. It does have some veil inclusions which are reflected in the price, but a great example of an icy blue aquamarine for birthstone jewelry or a fun ring, with beautiful cutting, a high crown, and great symmetry. The inclusions and gorgeous cutting both help minimize the appearance of a tilt window (typical for low-RI stones like aqua). # Pear orange-pink spinel. Does have a window, but as a trade-off, a large face-up size for 1.88ct! 10.1 x 6.55 x 4.32mm. Some non-bothersome typical spinel inclusions visible close-up. Less saturated than trade ideal with a tendency toward mauve in some lights, but does glow under UV light and packs a pretty good impact for a budget stone! I'm no jeweler, but with those dimensions it SHOULD fit a prong-style 10x7mm calibrated mount. There are some pretty fun options out there for you to put together a dramatic ring safe for every-day wear for less than $500, just sayin'. ;) # SOLD Lavender spinel: It does have some clear/white inclusions and a window, but the bright and open color, and pretty pink and blue flashes, really distract from the stone's blemishes! I just never got around to getting it recut... and I have way too many projects in the works. ;) # Tanzanite: 1.70ct precision-cut heat-only blue-violet tanzanite. I know heating is supposed to kill the green and purple, but I swear I see green and purple flashes in there! The color is a beautiful blue with violet tones, not at all dark. 6.8 x 6.8mm, 1.70ct. Bought directly from the knowledgeable Bill Vance at Vance Gems. Would look stunning in rose gold... # Tourmaline: 2.58ct emerald-shape precision-cut green/clear bicolor (though the clear doesn't show up very much) tourmaline. Cut by Grey Weaver, bought from the lovely Dana at Mastercut Gems. Neon grass-green color though from the side you can see it's actually got one end that's perfectly clear! A few light veils which show up way worse in my photos than in person. Assertive size for a ring at 11.8 x 5.8mm! # Tsavorite pair: This is embarrassing, but I can’t find any info about these in my spreadsheet. I will weigh & measure when I get a chance; I’ve put estimates in the listing! One stone has a fairly long feather that is minimally visible from the front, and was considered by the cutter not to be a threat to structural integrity when worn (any more than tsavorite should be a gentle-wear stone), but extra care should be taken in setting -- nothing that a skilled jeweler can’t handle. Priority mail shipping within the US is included in the asking price. Please contact me about international shipping; I will need to pass at least part of the actual cost on to you. Since I see a lot of sellers have a hard time being contacted through LT sometimes, my direct contact is lizwnguyen at gmail dot com. Sales are final, since I'm selling from my personal collection; please do ask for more photos or more detailed information if it would help you make your decision. PayPal only, please. I'm evergreen on PS, and have bought & sold many times on LT and DB.

This lively stone, cut by Jeff White as a beautiful Asscher, is a 1.09 ct untreated blue-green Montana sapphire I bought from him years ago and never got around to setting. The color is difficult to capture, but those of you who love Montanas probably understand. In most lights, the stone is a blue-green, but as you can see from the photos, sometimes the blue predominates. 6.83mm x 6.8mm x 5 mm deep. This price is for PayPal F and F; if you cannot use that, then I would need to ask for an additional 3% to cover the PP fees, please. The stone would be sent via USPS Priority, insured. Please feel free to email me at lmstlr@aol.com if you do not hear from me through LT mail. As I am a private seller, all sales are final, so please ask as many questions as you need to.

It was moderately shallow cut & faced up bigger than its carat weight. I sent it to Dan Stair for a pavilion recut to close the window & he did a superb job! The stone now has brilliance & dispersion to spare, yet it keeps its 3 plus carat face up size. Spinel rarely comes in this intense of color when it comes to blues & violets. This stone could be mistaken for a Tanzanite, with its color shift. A light medium dark tone, with an intense violet color under LED & fluorescent light, & a violetish blue, under sunlight. Looks good in direct sunlight. Becomes more vivid under LED & fluorescent, especially commercial light where it become this electric violet/purple. Will fit in a 9 mm round mount.

This is a strangely beautiful little Umba sapphire, unheated and AGL certified as such. AGL was a bit cruel calling it “brownish pink”, but then they wanted to make a point that it is not a padparadscha. To me it looks beautifully peachy, and it is a very sparkly little gem. The typical Umba inclusions are very visible in the pictures, but it faces up eye clean at arm’s length. Well cut (US cutting), despite the strange odd-pear outline designed to cut around the inclusions. Beautiful crisp facets, all brilliant cut crown and pavilion, excellent polish, no window whatsoever. Here is a short video of this gem: https://youtu.be/jxhJjuK2uow Weight: 1.84 ct Dimensions: 7.33 x 6.62 x 4.92 mm Origin: Umba, Tanzania Treatment: none Report: AGL gem brief Would be perfect in a simple stacking ring (rose gold?!), or in a bezel pendant with a little diamond on top. I would be happy to help with that, if desired. This gem comes with my usual 7 day return period. Because of the very low price (and Paypal not refunding fees anymore), however, I do not encourage orders “just to have a look and compare” for this one. I hope you gals understand :) Delivery is with complimentary Fedex express saver or USPS priority mail (your choice). Payment through regular Paypal (no F&F). Email: inken@enhoerning-jewelry.com

Reduced! Originally $1450! Must sell! Make me an offer! :) 10.17 carats, 12.33 x 11.68 x 7.49mm Cambodian, natural, low heat, very slight inclusions Oval modified brilliant cut (really closer to a round--see measurements) Greenish blue Purchased from Dana at Mastercut Gems. He says: “This gem was re-cut by me from an 11.4 carat windowed gem zircon. It is stunning and awesome and will make one outrageous ring or pendant… the lab says oval but it is more close to a round by any sense of the word; as it is less than a mm difference... if I were setting it I would buy a round mount as that is what it will fit.” This gem is just unreal. Gorgeous color; it just glows! And also zircon is really hard to photograph with that double refraction. This guy comes with an AGL Zircon Brief and I’ll throw in his little zircon buddy that you see in the photos for free. (I was thinking of doing a drop pendant with them…) Since this is a large purchase, I’m happy to offer a 24-hour inspection period on this item (buyer pays all shipping costs). Please see my other listings as well. Feel free to make me an offer. Since LT messaging can be flaky, please contact me at jd1470258 at yahoo dot com.
