They're all nice, but, yeah, I think the mookaite is the fav. Looks like you did a great job on the cleavage of the hearts. Did you use a dremel or Foredom?

that is very good tile saw shaping. hearts are especially hard. the mookite is very interesting. the white swirl is very well placed.
there are a few pits with a little polish residue in them. you may be able to burnish it out before it dries, but it will likely take a small power spray now. the mookite is really nice, I would consider getting that one clean and filling the pitts with Hxtal resin. That one especially would elevate from a very nice stone to a great one.
