<p>[QUOTE="Miscstuff, post: 835586, member: 1331"]My money is on a garnet faceted in a south Asian back street on a primitive faceting machine. Why - the facets meet roughly - it's a bit too dark for glass - and it has been mounted slightly better than glue. All bets are off if you find bubbles in it under a microscope.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie17" alt=":bag:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
