Most would think my favorite is turquoise, especially after your see my BSBP items, but it is actually Jade in all its many shades. Great job on the previous gem posts.
ReplyDeleteOh boy, I don't think I could pick a favorite. But I love stones with patterns (imperial jasper, ocean jasper, african opal, malachite, bloodstone), pearls (especially tahitian with their green hue), quartz (hiddenite, moldavite), carnelian ... my list could go on, and on!
ReplyDeleteOh hum, it is hard to pick a favorite. I have not met a gemstone yet that I don't like. If I have to pick I would say Jasper and Agate all of the variations of the stones.

I know very little about any of these gemstones we use, but pearls especially fascinate me... must be something about the fact that they grow inside a living organism.
