Here's a new stone I've been working with: Ruby in fuchsite.
Ruby crystals surrounded with pale blue kyanite seem to float in the sea green fuchsite. It's a bit tricky to cut as the crystal like to pop out when close to the edge, but well worth the effort. It looks great in sterling silver, and ruby, aventurine and pearls match it nicely.
I will be making more pieces from this slab soon!
