I know it's an odd topic, but I've had a recent obsession with rocks and stones (or things made from them). My favorite rock/gem/stone would have to be the Tiger's Eye Stone. I got a necklace with one on it, and I wear the stupid thing every day!

I also like Lapis Lazuli. It's very...blue. My mom likes Amythest the best.

What are your favorites?

tiger's eye is my favorite, alexandrite - it was my mom's and my grandmother's favorite so it always reminds me of them, turquoise, and peridot..... there are more, but those are the ones that come to mind first.

Diamonds are my #1 favorite. I am very lucky to be an April baby so that I have an excuse to buy them....I'm just buying my birthstone, right? :lol:

After that comes sapphires, I love the blueness of them. I also love opals, there's something very mysterious and unique about them. ;)

Hmm, I love these stones but to pick a favourite is very hard! I used to have a tiger's eye stone but I'm not sure where it went :unsure: I have an aventurine keychain and I love the colours in peacock ore (which I also have). I also like amethyst and garnet. I mainly like the colourful stones :P

I seem to have a thing for Tiger's Eye. Very pretty. I also love tanzinite stones. I have a purple tanzinite on my ring I wear everyday. It's surrounded by little diamonds. Tanzinite is quite expensive, like diamonds often times. I received this 14K gold ring with a purple tanzinite and diamonds on my 12th birthday. I still wear it to this day.

I like alexandrite and peridot. Very attractive in my opinion.

Hmmm, :huh:
I think my alltime fave would have to be topaz, my birthstone(november20). But I also love moonstone and opals. I have a silver celtic ring that has a small peacock opal in it, given to me by a male teenager freind. (just freinds, that IS ALL!) lolz :lol:
