The listing, African Bloodstone, 15" Strand Lot 1 has ended.
READ THIS CAREFULLY:
I will not ship to you unless you provide a Listia verified address within 7 days. If you are just starting and do not know what that is, please see Listia help or file a support ticket.
I will no longer be posting auctions without a starting bid. I can only set a GIN if there are no bids - in most cases I am willing to do this if you contact me in time.
Do not bid if you really don't want the item.
I *DO* prefer to ship multiple items to a person who wins multiple auctions, so if you are bidding on more than one item, please let me know so I can ship them all at once. It saves me time and money. Sometimes I can upgrade to priority flat rate if someone wins enough bids. I am not currently charging shipping, so take advantage of it, until I go broke and can't afford it anymore!
Many of my auctions are gemstone strands. Please note that it is natural, as many of the stones are hand cut or shaped, that the sizes may vary slightly, the coloration within the strands of stones will vary, and occasionally, despite my best efforts, one may break during shipping. Let me know if this occurs, although it is difficult to replace one stone from a string. The same applies to any gemstone pendants; the color can vary between two pieces of the same material; many are handcut and the sizes given are as close an approximation as possible.
Now....to pleasanter things......
This one is a 15" strand of African Bloodstone, 4mm round cuts. Please view closeups to view coloration and markings on stone. This particular stone does not seem to have a large amount of marbling; what it does have is a very rich deep mahoghany color. These are lovely!
