Well for the first time I can say a trip went according to plan :-)  some amazing Gemstones bought - in particular Rough Rubies from Chantabhuri. Spent the last week cataloguing pricing measuring and photographing ! Will start uploads tomorrow. I'm also rapt with my collection of Faceted Tanzanite rings. Especially since no one had these to sell at the gem show. OK I bought the stones 6 months ago but sometimes to get the right quality and price you just have to wait a little longer . . . as you will too because I'm waiting to get home to my best camera and light box for these ! It's been a great trip but looking forward to coming home now.
