CrazyTuesday#Gemstone

These semi-precious stones are imperfect for final processing because they contain impurities, so they are only rounded and strung into a beautiful necklace.

HCT!

All sorts of gemstones. Some were my moms and some I've picked up on my travels.

Gemstones.

Smile on Saturday.

Smile on Saturday theme Gemstones.😃

From Wikipedia:

The ideal pearl is perfectly round and smooth, but many other shapes, known as baroque pearls, can occur. The finest quality of natural pearls has been highly valued as gemstones and objects of beauty for many centuries.

Because of this, the pearl has become a metaphor for something rare, fine, admirable, and valuable.

I hope that you smile and smile some more today. Happy snapping.

This necklace doesn't belong to me, wish it did!

Made by a dear friend and called a 'collectors necklace' because of the variety of gemstones. The gemstones used are mainly Amber and Jade. Some in the shape of leaves, butterflies and flowers. Also freshwater pearls (green ones) - smokey quartz and pea green turquoise.

Amber is a fossilized resin and renowned for it's 'healing' properties and is as old as time itself, dating back millions of years.

Jade is a special stone that is believed to promote wisdom, balance, and peace.

A shot from August, still waiting for some decent fall colors here and after a lot of heat and rain this summer, I wonder if we'll get anything colorful at all!!

Thank you for your kind visits, awards, comments and faves!!

An old ring, no idea what kind of stone is in it but it's red :). I like the setting.

The bokeh is from a golden bracelet.

Gold and Gemstones are Fake

I had a good look through the vendor's stall holding each stone up to the light. I loved this one and although very small it showed potential. It was then a challenge to bring out the colours using my ring light and mobile phone torch. I added "stars" to enhance the appearance of outer space.
