Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 Salutations Sri Richardji, Thanx for kindly response. Tis not the same sacred volume I was referring to in the previous message.. Something else but for the life of me, can't remember exact title and can't find it either. When I turn this place upside down, it will show up; shall let you know later..... Agree with all said about rubies. Love the "Ceylonese" grades too. Absolutely all for yellow topaz being superb substitute for yellow sapphire rather than citrine; citrine seems to lack that extra "zing" in energies when dowsed. In resonance too about size of gems being a matter of "dose" or dosage. Australia produces some of the world's most valuable cultured pearls; top grades tawk serious funds say min $30k for one bead. Just for interest: Papiasley (spelling may not be correct) is one of the pioneer families for pearls. What are your thoughts about seed pearls or river pearls/ freshwater pearls?
