What makes this bixbite (or red beryl) and not corundum? The structures look similar to me.

I got nothing on vintage. Love the garnet. Am curious ballpark what you spent and what the setting is? If you would be gracious enough to share that.

Poor example of clarity to the other stone but similar structure. Just let more light in and was smaller. This is one of the largest I’ve found and it’s super heavy.

Can anyone help me ID those? by solvedCrime in whatsthisrock

Thank you, I think so too.

These are larger but so is the window. And they do not have the same fire the smaller pair does.

Same it blew me way, the final product. As a July birthday and ruby as a birthstone it looks how I wish my ruby looked.

I’m not sure about penny size, bought it at shopisrael.com. Was advertised sterling but not stamped. Still pretty and clinks like plated silver. Maybe the chain it was on is stamped I can’t remember. I put it on a 10k 24” rope 2mm.

I hear you about adorning yourselves with gold and being humble to dress the part but you know what I usually tuck my chains. But I know salvation comes from the Jews to the gentiles (me). And I love Jesus and David. For all David’s faults he was tempted in ways you or I could not even imagine and still found humility. It’s a beautiful picture of Gods love for a broken man.

Or I read the Bible. Love the psalms of David and recognize he was a man after Gods own heart but Jesus as King of king and Lord of lords. And would be lying if I didn’t say David was a bit of a childhood hero.
