[QUOTE="Wally69, post: 473476, member: 1916"] A while ago, I posted the Superman garnet that had some cool looking bubble inclusions, so I found another with needles in a lattice pattern to have a crack at. [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/1916/1551051459_68296828-a3d7-4832-86c9-27c92624736e.jpg[/img] The stone is quite dark, but the size was good and the inclusions intrigued me. The design is the same as the little sapphire I just finished, it was going to be my first triangle shaped gem, but it jumped off the dop and has been missing in action for quite some time. I stumbled across it yesterday hiding in amongst some tools at the back of my workbench, so I had a crack at redopping the stone to see if I could finish it off. The result is 1.95ct, very dark in the shade, but it sparkles in the sunshine.
