[QUOTE="johnful, post: 388589, member: 11662"] Very nice work there Sneaky. I mainly facet and haven't done the metalwork/casting yet. I do have some topaz. The most interesting one was a gravel find. Found in in a batch of gravel used for landscaping the back yard. 43ct. It's greenish/yellow. Traced the gravel back to a quarry in Alabama along the Georgia border. I was just looking at it yesterday and thinking it was probably the next thing I will cut. I have an aquamarine on the dop right now that I need to finish up. Doing a 7mm heart (the Late Jeff Graham's "Sweetheart" design). I have the pavilion done and need to transfer and do the crown. Raining today so I don't trek out to the shop. Probably next weekend. Look like it would be best cut in an oval. [/QUOTE]
