Description
A new phase in our Etsy shop – loose faceted gemstones of high quality.

This sparkly lavender Sapphire has very nice scintillation and will fit in our Heather Ring. Sapphire is durable enough for an engagement ring!
I really like the way Sri Lankan cut stones make the light dance around inside them.

More gems to come starting with the ones that fit in our designs!
