Andamooka Opal
 
This is a rare kind of Opal and has normally no faceting potential. Intense silk and a little sleepy appearance but fine light orange reflectionswere a good reason to do this cut with not too much facets.

Nigerian Tourmaline
 
This is a small and nice nigerian Tourmaline, faceted in a reduced octagon design with a big table. This is a mirrorkind design that hides the "keel" very well with the result of a total reflecting pavilion as a big glowing plane. This custom cut gem should work very well in a designer jewelry. The colour is a bit lighter and more pink than this pic, also a light colour-shift to more salmon/brownisch in incandescent light.

Mexican Contra Luz Fire Opal
 
This tiny Fire Opal with its colourless bodycolour would be a boring gem if there were not this nice contra luz colourplay. In normal light conditions no colour is visible but a small and clear opal. But when held against sun many little colour-flashes occurs. Please note the chip at the long side!

Afghan Hessonite
 
Here comes nice colored Hessonite from Afghanistan with many inclusion. I sometrimes think is this kind of rough really worth to be faceted? My answer is: Yes, it is. Even a gem with so many small inclusion can be a brilliant gem and I hope it well get to a home with similar thoughts! In a jewelry with gold it must look awesome!

Tanzanian Rhodolite
 
This is a masterpiece from the garnet-family: A giant magenta-coloured Rhodolite. I purchased the rough  pebble at the Münchner Mineralientage 2010 and was fascinated by the colour, the size, also the shape. It lost not too much while faceting dut to its perfect blocky shape. Often the big garnets are too dark but this one has fire and life and great magenty flashes, the ultimate high end custom cut Rhodolite.
21.25 cts., 16.2 x 12.1 mm
