Not Much

 
I have not been writing much lately, unfortunately I've not really found anything interesting to say.

We spent the weekend up north in the heat, it was still so hot that I feel slightly wozzy at time and the humidity makes my hair all flat. The trip lead to a big dip in the bucket of gemstones and bunch of new orders. Which is nice. There is one amazing ametrine, which I hope I will be able to make something interesting out off for Mr T:s niece, there is a whole load of lovely zircons, some white topaz and a big deep red/orange stone that i think might be something like a citrine that is quite interesting but I will have to do some more testing and get back to you about what it actually are. The light pink stone is called YAG (Yttrium aluminium garnet ) that is a synthetic stone. It used be used a lot as diamond stimulants, but since cubic zirconia was "invented" is not as popular as it's not as cheap to fabricate.

Other orders I will finish this week are these 5 different pendants that has been ordered. And another two rings with very big stones. So I reckon I'm going have to get cracking on this making jewellery bizz..

  2. Finally, you're back! I thought we'd lost you forever! It seems as you have had a lot of new orders, congrats!

    I like the pink stone although it's bullied for not being "authentic". Hurray for pink!

    I went to the licorice festival this saturday, everything was soooo good. And I found out that there's a store at Odenplan called The licorice root where you can buy all sorts of different nice candys. So, if you want, I can send you some, or the next person who's going to visit you can get some with them. PUSS!
