Shattuckite
I'm looking forward to this presentation. American mined gemstones is something that I've been wanting SLC to feature more of . Shattuckite sounds pretty and upon hearing that it was mined around Bisbee, Arizona brought back sweet memories of my hubby and I "tramping " around the area ❣

Re: Shattuckite
I did a little reading on this gemstone and it seems it's only a 3.5 on mohs scale. ☹ so if I purchase anything it will be in a pendant. Dont think I'd try a ring

I've never even heard of it but always like to see something I have never seen before! I do think a pendant is the way to go though.

Re: Shattuckite
I keep checking SLC inventory for the Shattuckite but it's still showing nothing in inventory ☹ I'm hoping it's just to keep it from selling early.
This looks like such a pretty gem and it's the first one in a long time that I've been anxiously waiting for presentation.

Re: Shattuckite
I saw the previews. It looks like a beautiful stone. I hope I can find something I like in my price range. I for sure will be watching. I love my blue and purple stones. Whether they be gemstones or rocks. I love rocks. They go with my boho style in clothing. I just started getting into the rocks a couple of years ago. I just ordered 2 Abalone necklaces yesterday and an Abalone bracelet today. The first ever. Though I have admired it through the years. These are my only she'll items except for an Amolite ring abd bracelet. ( I think it's Amolite.... I always get Amolite and Amonite mixed up.)Gypsy wrote: ↑4 years agoI'm looking forward to this presentation. American mined gemstones is something that I've been wanting SLC to feature more of .

Thank you for the Moh's rating. Looks like I will me getting a pendant as well, or possibly a smaller stoned ring for my pinkie.

I wear alot of Bali Abalone Shell pieces people stop and compliment me everytime I wear . I love big dangle earrings and the pendants.

Re: Shattuckite
Amonite is the "animal" , remember the "n". Thats how I do it. Amonite is the shell where the animal lived while amolite is a pretty piece of the shell. If I can remember the "n" in amonite I can tell them apart.Angelflutter wrote: ↑4 years agoI saw the previews. It looks like a beautiful stone. I hope I can find something I like in my price range.
