What I bought at the gems show

I think it is time I show what I bought at the gems show.  I visited the place at the last day, on April 19, in the afternoon.  There is a lot of photos, so, here we go:
The one on the top left is a rose quartz.  On the top right, it is a silver leaf jasper.  On the bottom left, it is a tiger eye.  On the bottom right, there is various stones:


The next ones are some lapis lazuli (the left wand, the disk on the farthest right and the rectangle just beside the disk), there is a disk turquoise on the top, two snowflakes obsidian (the black ones with the white spots), two kyanite in the middle (a wand and a rectangle) and one quartz on top of the rectangle kyanite.  On the bottom, there is two cabochon: one is a malachite and the other one is a lapis lazuli:


It's not all!  The top two are some small emerals and small turquoises.  Not the top quality but I can say I have now some emerald!  Beside them, there is a malachite and one gold red obsidian:


It been a while since I bought some strands.  So, this time, I have done it.  I just have to remember to be careful with strand.  There is one where some of the beads had gone loose in the bag.  I put the in the middle of the photo:






It is rare that I buy jewelry in a gems show.  The piece must have something that attract me on some level.  Usually, it is the beads used.  This time, it was the design.  It is a ring with a leaf on it.  I could not resist buying it:

The ring was the must expensive item I bought that day.  The rest was well priced.  I almost bought crystal balls.  There was a few that I saw that were beautiful.  What stopped me was that I already have some crytal balls and I had spend enough for the day.  It was a nice event.
