Do you have any good to excellent quality moonstone spheres? I'm looking for ones with flash. They need to be good quality and 20mm as I am using them for work (Windstone). I'd be willing to pay more than $1.00 each for the service of knowing I'll be getting quality. :}

I'd also be interested in any other stones that are semi-precious and of good quality with vibrant color.

Unfortunately the moonstones I have are all definitely lower quality. The two peach tinted ones have a little bit of flash, and a couple of the others have a tiny flash if you catch it just right, but they're all cloudy, streaked, highly flawed, etc.

The mineral spheres I have that I'd consider good quality are howlite, tiger iron, hematite, picture jasper, chatoyant sodalite, and maybe a few of the very best of the jade, mookaite, moss agate and labradorite.

labradorite http://www.sparkcostumes.com/gallery/albums/userpics/P1010831.jpg (I do have one pretty good 20mm labradorite not shown here. It's in my personal collection, but that is overflowing with labradorite, I was a little over-enthused about it early on! So I'd be quite willing to sell it.)

Okay cool! :D I have folks begging for flashy moonstone but I've found pretty much the same result as you- nothing in the 20mm size of higher quality that people are wanting. I am lucky enough that I found some labradorite spheres at the rock show I went to so I was able to hand pick them. :}

I don't have a ton of peices I need spheres for, but how about the following:
2 of the more vivid blue sodalite spheres,
1 of the hematite spheres,
1 of one of the richer green moss agates

So 4 all together? :}

Sure. :) $2 should cover shipping, so $6 altogether. You can paypal if you like, to spark.costumes@gmail.com
