I'm using this photostream as my picture-blog for my work and travels. I'm a professional gemcutter faceting fine gemstones. If you want to know more about me personally, you can visit the "About Me" page on my website: torraca.net/gems/about.php
I love sharing images of my stones and all things gemstone related that strike my fancy. So, some of the things here you'll see here are stones for sale, but others are commission pieces cut for wholesalers or special pieces for private collectors -- still others are images that strike me as just plain cool.
You are welcome to get in touch with me by Flickr-mail or email if you need a stone for a project or just have a question about gemstones.

gemstoneJEFF says:
"I just purchased an east african zircon from peter and the whole experience was very professional. Peter answered all my questions about the gem and i was surprised on how speedy the delivery was. I have been collecting east african zircons for over 2 years and i consider the gem i purchased from peter to be the center piece of my collection. The cutting on the gem was absolutely beautiful and perfect. I am extremely happy doing business with peter and i cant wait till the next time!!!"
