<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Satin In A Coffin, post: 4531149, member: 60309&quot;]Go to a rock and gem show if possible and see and handle as many different stones as you can outside of settings, both polished and unpolished. It is really fascinating and eye opening to see all the variations and all of your jewelry MVPs in their natural form. Searching for natural specimens on eBay or Etsy might be another option. Seeing them like that helped me a lot in learning to identify various stone, although I&#039;m still far from perfect and new variations crop up all the time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
