Let's please have a big warm welcome for @Brittany Miller a close friend of mine and @Cameron Staples whose posts resonated with me so strongly that I reached out to talk to him and he jumped into our group without me even noticing!

Let us welcome @LoriAnn Smith to her good fortune! I met this lovely lady yesterday at a Memorial service and she was kind enough to show me her GORGEOUS Star Sapphire! I don't know the exact weight however it should be well over a carat in the shape of an oval cabochon with the star showing a full clear six prongs and being slightly off-centered. It's the first star gemstone I've held that I know of! I truly hope she shows it off for all of you to admire 😍 Regardless, from our conversation yesterday she admitted a passion and a skill for finding treasures second hand especially through online sources! Let's say hello! •Look for the E-Book 🙌
