Chrome Pyrope

All of these are hand-picked rough & afterwards; this is the end result.
They are hard to light up & photograph due to their "dark" nature.

Spot me

Under a 10X Loupe, taken with my Verizon Phone. I have notice that after I facet them, each one tends to have a distinct mark... Spots, Deposit, Color, etc. I know that its a unique thumbprint of its true origin.

Faceted Peridot

08519920014947517027933.jpg
A picture of finished pieces that I had. Middle Trillion had a yellow color to it & under a 10X Loupe; it had some "brown spots" scattered about. Although, you would not notice that to the naked eye.
