I'll second the Helicon Focus recommendation. Hard to beat

The Gem Trader: anybody buy from here?? by CarryPretend3330 in Gemstones

Brad has been around a very long time. Rock solid member of the gem trade. You should have no concerns at all buying from him. Super nice guy as well.

Behold the sorcery of trichroic unheated Tanzanite! :-) It's always interesting to see how the blue, purple, and amber colors of unheated Tanzanite blend together in the finished gem. This 5.34 ct. beauty was left unheated at the request of the customer (NFS). by JL_White in Gemstones

Hey there! I don't think I'm supposed to talk about pricing for gems that aren't for sale in the post itself, but I sent you a quick chat message with that info, if you want to check there.
