It was a pleasure to meet you both. I've never done anything like that before so a learning experience for me too!

Personally, I would throughly recommend you buy the stones before the microscope :D

Glad you liked the stones. I had quite a few more to show you so it's a shame they closed up shop. The Mogok rubies I showed you were the tip of the parcel. I had some more rubies and some untreated Burmese blue sapphires too - including one 4 carat stone !!

More tomorrow - I'm off for a very cold beer & watch one of my favourite Sergio Leone films ...!

Yes, I remember that pear sharped sapphire, the one that I dropped on the table...


Yeah, I didn't move my purse into the way fast enough, :lol:

Sounds like a good reason to suggest doing a Burmese talk soon then! If not at Gem-A then at my house, lunch and wine included. :lol: I'm utterly fascinated by that Mogok ruby under the microscope. So you'll have to bring one of those too, LOL
