Description

OK......I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT STONE THE CAMERA WAS LOOKING AT, BUT THIS AIN'T WHAT I SAW.

THIS IS A TYPICAL MADEIRA COLORED CITRINE. IT'S ADAMANTINE AND IF, SO IT'S A KEEPER....GLITTERS LIKE MAD.

IT WOULD MAKE A GOOD RING OR PENDANT.

3.25 @ CARAT....SO IT WOULD MAKE A GOOD DEAL, TOO.

AS WITH ALL MY STOCK, IF YOU AREN'T 100% SATISFIED, WARM AND FUZZY ABOUT THIS STONE.....SEND IT BACK FOR A FULL REFUND. I WON'T HAVE A PROBLEM RESELLING IT.

Questions & Comments

Hokulea, August 26, 2008:

Ms. Glennda,

Thank ye..... I spent almost 15 years in Tennessee and Looseeanne.

Mommas peoples were some of the first in West Tennessee, Carroll, Henry and Bells counties.

I hold on to my Southerness very tightly....... 'til someone does some fool somethin or tuther.... then I step back and point....."YA SEE THERE?!!?....THAT'S why I left !!!!".....kindly like what West Virginia did after the war.

Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate them beyond your knowlege...

humbly at your service,

Daniel Bunn
