Mailers,

I am a dealer in precious stones.

I am looking to trade some high quality/value gemstones for chainmail pieces such as bracelets, belts, necklaces, etc.

I will give you a VERY good deal.

Send me a PM and include photos and estimate of what you think your chainmail pieces are worth in US$ and I will make you an offer which will give you 5 times the dollar value in gems of your choice.

I can provide photos of my gems apon request.
Regards,
Edward.[/img]

What is the name of your company and what kind of stones do you deal in? Where are they from? Where are you located?

Please post pictures.

im sorta assuming that they cant be in steel or copper or aluminum, right? Sterling, gold and niobium right? BAH! There goes my poorman's metals...
On the other hand, this seems like a good chance for people like Bluebuddah...

Edward - those are some fine gems, but please host the images off site for use in the trading room. If we allowed pictures on our site for trading purposes, it would eventually flood the server storage with old useless images.

I trade the following cut stones:

Sapphire, Ruby, Aquamarine, Topaz, Garnet, Peridot, Tanzanite, Tsavorite, Tourmaline.

Additionally, I supply a wide variety of cabochon stones.

PS. Appologies for the pictures....rather a newbie on this site.

Souds interesting, but I only have galvanised steel to work with so I'm out.

So are there or are there not restrictions on wire type?
If so, what are they?

I don't know, but gems for galvy sounds like an unfair trade.

Well, he doesn't specify wire types...also even though it's galvanized, Steel is still a strong material; besides it's not like he's saying he's gonna send you a satchel full of gems or anyhting, just "5 times its[your piece] worth".

*shruggs* If maille's your hobby I'd be willing to sale a basic belt for $20 so his offer would be $100; in gems that's equivalent to a single tiny tiny tiny gem so really when you think a tiny Gem for a steel belt that you personally made I'd say it's about a pretty even trade, in my opinion anyways. I dunno, I don't have anyhting like he's looking for just laying around or else I'd trade.

Just thought I'd throw in my 2 cents for whatever it's worth. (probably not even 2 cents Laughing

)

I've been doing a lot of abstract painting lately, extremely abstract. No brush, no paint, no canvas. I just think about it.

I'm looking for a gem about 1/4" in diameter, so I'm probably gonna have to go with a cheap gem. =S

Hi TipO MasTr,

I have many gems that size and you may not have to go for a 'cheap' stone. What is the application? Whats it going into and what shape/cut/colour do you want it?
Let me know some details and I can help you out.
Regards,
Edward.
