[QUOTE="Marie Forjan, post: 3643972, member: 147"]I love when they get it wrong :woot: I bought a very nice Victorian garnet brooch last winter, the seller said she took it to a dealer who said the stones were glass, she said she saw bubbles in the stones. I got it for very little because of that. Later, looking through a loupe I didn't see any bubbles, then my gem tester confirmed they are garnets. Sold it the first time I had it out for sale :)[/QUOTE]
