Uncut Rubies and Emeralds.how do you work with them and tell how valuable they are?

I've recently come into about 10,000 carats of uncut gems and I'm trying to figure out how to get the most out of them. The info I've come across so far tells me to clean and tumble them first and then inspect them for value but I'm not sure if this is the right start and even if it is how do I know which stones will be best to send to a Gem cutter so that I'm not just wasting my time. Any idea's would be appreciative.

Christmas Gift for Girlfriend?

December 21, 2009 By admin 4 Comments

So we are 16, and this is our first Christmas together. I'm a terrible shopper, but I've been browsing the internet trying to find something. Naturally I eventually thought of jewelry. We were both born in July, so I was thinking like a ruby pendant might be nice. It seems to me that a birthstone would be more of a birthday gift, but then I figured I could get her earrings to match on her birthday. So, a few questions:

1. Would a birthstone pendant be a good idea from a Christmas gift (coupled with a few other smaller things)?
2. We've only been going out for almost two months and we're only 16. Would her parents freak out if they saw me getting her a medium quality ruby pendant?

Any help is, as always, appreciated. Merry Christmas!
