Default Here's a fantasy question for you.

If you had unlimited money and unlimited time, what gemstones would
you like to work with?

I think I would take 8mm faceted Ruby beads and 14 kt. gold spacers
and make a killer necklace and earrings to match. I'd also like to
work with purple turquoise, labradorite and Bali silver.

Anyone else?

Tanzanite. More tanzanite.

Apatite, emerald, opals, really nice pearls (although I know they aren't
technically a gemstone).

I do have some tanzanite brios that I've yet to do anything with. I just
don't feel like I can do them justice. They need wirewrapping or something
fancy. I'd love to make them into earrings for my grandmother, but I can't
think of anything to do with them.

That's a tough one!! I'd love anything, but right now I've had a craving
for a big ol' slice of watermelon tourmaline to wirewrap. I can't picture
every buying one.

If money was no object, then I would love to use faceted Blue Ceylon
Sapphires 6 - 8 mm BEADS and 100% silver components. Yeah, I know there is
no such thing so I'd have to have the beads made for me first. You did say
unlimited money!! Oh wow, that would be one fantastic jewelry set.

I absolutely adore tourmaline - the kind that is a combo of greens and
cranberries - but it's always way to expensive for me to buy, so I just
drool. I adore rainbow fluorite, too.
