Gem Quiz

Here’s the Answer to January’s Gem Quiz

IF YOU EAGERLY scan our alphabetically ordered list of Gem Quiz Honorable Mentions each month, you’ll no doubt have noticed the name of Stuart Adelman – who has been sitting at the top of the pile for many years. That’s testament to Stuart’s gemological knowledge – and the fact he’s never managed to make the purely luck-fueled leap to the winner’s podium. That changed last month. Stuart’s name came out of the hat first and he scores this month’s Gem Geek t-shirt. Well done, Stuart, who owns Artelle Designs Fine Jewelry & Custom Design in Plymouth, MN. And all our Honorable Mentions, who also identified Pyrope as our mystery stone.
