Thanks Pat !
That's a birthstone combo for my other brother Mike & his wife Pam
Citrine for November --rock crystal for April I cut the crystal from an actual quartz crystal That presented certain challenges It cut and ground easy enough I thought that was going to be a problem being that crystal is 7 on the mohs scale But the problem was grinding the edge flat & straight it was a difficult rock for that but I nailed it
April is diamond or rock crystal according to my chart
Now its time to go to Ma's slow warm the Minnestrone for the family gathering this evening
Merry Christmas !
Ed

Crystal hearts may be the coming thing crystals really plays out well in the heart shape and they are a trick to cut so more questing ...
