Thank you for posting your finds. It would be great if you could post some photos after they are cut also - if you get a chance. Looks like you had a great show!

I got some Ethiopian Emerald as well. This piece is pretty darn clean, 4.4 grams

The green didn't come out in the picture, but it is a very nice deep green.

I would very much like to get it cut by someone who knows what they are doing (which would not be me). Since I am pretty sure it has not been oiled, I would like it cut without oil, because then i want to get it tested as not having any oil treatment.
Anyone interested?

I got it cut! (5.4 carats)

I would like to get a lab report that it is not oiled. Should I send it to NY or Carlsbad?
