Gems, Diamonds, Precious Stones, Semi-Precious Stones |
||||
| I should begin by letting you know that I'm primarily a jewelry maker...and I make sculpture and other objects, some of which can be found by browsing my website. At the same time, I very much enjoy gems of high quality and I often incorporate one or more stones in whatever I may be making, whether jewelry, baby rattles, toys...well you probably get the picture. I'd call myself more an enthusiast of particularly fine gems. I take this opportunity to show a range of gemstones that I've found to be impressive. Please note that I'm not a gemologist, although I have had more than twenty years of involvement with a wide variety of gems. I will introduce numbers of other gemstones to this page, some of them cut in the more traditional shapes and others having been cut in less typical and potentially more exciting manners. Several seen in these pages are referred to as fantasy cut stones created by lapidaries who I've come to know over the years. I'll make a point of augmenting this presentation of precious and semi-precious gems as I'm able. Please come back often to see what new gems have been added.
