Trip to the 2026 Tucson Gem/Mineral Shows!:

Our first year was 1987 and we have been attending since that timeframe and did display in 1990 at the Holidome Show with some of our Brasilian Associates.  There were only a few major shows that were worthy to note, perhaps about 4 that I personally recall attending initially in the late 1980s – and now there are many more with more opening almost every year. 

See this Month’s News for a lecture about Colored Gem Trends from the AGTA Trade Show at the convention center.

Gemstones in Cutting:

We are expecting to facet a Zircon in the future, in a cushion shape if we continue to go with that shape.  We might be faceting a LuAG YAG, that Lab Grown (Ce:LuAG, lutetium aluminum garnet (Lu3Al5O12) doped with cerium) that glows like lime green radiator fluid – looks like it is radioactive!  We have several pieces of this costly rough and will be faceting gems over x number of months or even years perhaps, and will be selling some of the pieces to other facetors.  To quote a GIA article on this material – “This material was introduced to the optics industry in the late 1990s and acts as a scintillator, a fluorescent crystal that absorbs high-energy radiation such as X-rays or gamma rays and reemits them as lower-energy visible light that is much easier to detect.” 

Contemplating on sending some rough to one of our specialty cutters, but working out the details.

There is very little new rough presently in our inventory in general and we already have representations faceted from that rough, including:  Blue Flash Amethyst, Blended Ametrine, Tourmaline, Color Change Diaspore, Yellow Beryl, Color Change Garnet, Umbalite and Rhodolite Garnet, Oregon Sunstone, Lab Grown Alexandrite and others….
