[QUOTE="KSW, post: 1674388, member: 8708"]Thankyou for looking. The unreliable gem tester is pretty reliable with glass and she says both of these are gemstones. Then her help gets less reliable when it comes to actually IDing them. The purple chunk is definitely Amethyst, I just put it in there because I originally thought the purple beads were Amethyst but they aren't as you can see the difference in the same light source. The circle is indeed a hole :-)[/QUOTE]
