A Day at the Museum Part 2

Continuing our tour of the Mineral, Gem and Schmuck Museum




An old jeweller's bench and a diamond polisher




Large pieces of Sodalite




A bird carved from Watermelon tourmaline




This must have been awkward to use but oh so pretty to look at











Carved from various semi-precious stones




This is amethyst as it is found, just waiting to be cut and polished




Everyone needs to have an Fabergé egg of amethyst in their chotke collection




Amethyst jewellery







Flowers carved from semi-precious stones. Oh Honey, I'll take this bouquet for Valentine's Day!

I'd like to thank Ivett for being such a sweetheart in allowing me to share her wonderful pictures.
