Subject Museum Specimen Date Fri Feb 04 12:06 Author Gail Clark (clarkg@poky.srv.net)

Enter your message here. Garry, The one-of-a-kind specimen of labradorite I purchased from you some time ago is superb. I cut it in half ( properly oriented), ground and polished the sawn surfaces and I now have two splendid specimens, both with beautiful fire and luster, really graphic evidence of what labradorescence can be! Now that I have ordered some AAA Labradorite (both slabs and chunks) for cabbing, I am eagerly awaiting their arrival. Best wishes, Gail Clark

Enter your message here.Just found your website, and am really pleased to see a rockshop in Newfoundland. I have cut and polished Labradorite for years and have used it in the handcrafted jewellery that I make. I love the stone, and am proud to claim it as a Canadian stone, from a special part of Canada. It has optical properties that are as unique as the Ammolite of Alberta, another really special Canadian stone. Welcome, and goodluck. Ann Jensen, Terrasse Vaudreuil, Quebec.
