My recent purchases have been spirit quartz, ametrine, amethyst in a raw form not polished up, the spirit quartz and ametrine just keep calling to me I carry them around at the moment :-)

Here are pictures of the new vintage pendant I bought. I know the words new and vintage hardly go together, it's new for me but is vintage in general.

I just bought a few stones this past Saturday:

1 Smokey Quartz

1 Citrine - this one is going to be a culprit - I "dropped" it twice while I was still in the store - lots of energy in this one, lolol!!!

1 Lapis Lazuli

1 Black Tourmaline

1 chunk of quartz crystal - I picked this one up, looked at it, then put it back down - was not planning on buying it...but once I put it down, it kept "calling me" back to it - so I had to buy it :smile:

Thanks I love it! My old pendant that I bought from Innervisions weighs 7.4 grams and I paid 90$ for it + shipping. The new vintage one weighs 8.9 grams, is way better made and durable due to the thick silver on the bell, a much nicer piece of Moldavite on the pendant as well and I paid 15$ for it + shipping. I imagine the bidding didn't go up any further because on the bottom of their auctions they say that they do their best to state the type of gem in the jewelry but they aren't guaranteed because they buy all of their stuff in estate/lot sales and the price would be much higher if they had to pay a gemologist to identify and certify every stone. So in layman's the stone in the jewelry very well could be fake. Thankfully I know enough about Moldavite to know that it was genuine from the pictures and the 15$ gamble I took paid off! I know for a fact I could easily re-sell the piece for 100$ but I have no intentions of selling it.
