Barbora Petrekova i'm obsessed with peridot! The most beautiful gem to me together with cr-diopside! I filled my house of mantle peridotites so i can watch those colors every day
Steve, I have a nice 43ct hot pink rubilite tourmaline from the Stewart mine in California, what cut design in your opinion best suits this stone? I was looking to have it made into a ring setting.
Lots to consider. Most tourmalines have directional color and you have to cut to the best color. Inclusions and yield are the next considerations. Without having it in my hands its difficult to recommend a cut. I typically cut out the bad and unusable portions and then determine the cut.

+The Rainbow Balloon I use to sell Japanese swords, and like gems imho subjectivity/"tradition" makes certain things underrated in spite of its clearly superior, objective qualities e.g. R.I and lack of double refraction in gems, amount of "activity" in swords. I love garnets of ALL colors except blue, and imho there is no purple like Amethyst purple
Each and every gemstone listed here is loved by me. I love almost all gemstones, but I do have my top favorites, and Tanzanite is one of them. I really enjoy Turkizite and Andalusite... I would love to see you feature those gemstones one day!
@@Moregems Yes, I believe it is the same thing, but this particular named stone is for specimens native to one area. It has been a while, but I learned of this stone while watching a TV program. The show followed a Brazillian Gem Hunter (Tony Diniz) and others on a show called "Game of Stones" (Discovery Channel). The episode was called Turkish Roulette and they were looking for a specific stone that has/had a value close to a million dollars (if I remember correctly the stone was around 120 carats) and it was called Turkizite -- which I've read is Turkish Diaspore, which is only found in Anatolia, Turkey.
Ethiopian opal is one of my faves!!! They're easy to cut by hand and they're significantly cheaper than Australian opal and I find they have better depth and fire!
Great information, and it's a good thing that I've been collecting most of the stones mentioned. Another important piece of information to know is that most of these stones are not treated unlike many in the market today.
0:50 also dont leave a spinel in a garden for 6000 years or wlse it will rejuvinate your freinds and put a mega injector in the planet Steven universe refrwnce
I have a 11.8 carat peridot from Pakistan and the color is simply stunning! The piece I have is not eye clean, but the color is so Beautiful, a rich green, not too yellowy green. Ethiopian opals are beautiful too. And they are quite affordable! I have one I plan to set on a hatpin.
Tourmaline is a beautiful material too! There are so many stunning colors! Check out this beautiful large tri-color tourmaline that Steve Moriarty cut in the past... ua-cam.com/video/vZvWYZDU8bo/v-deo.html
New collector here and I really enjoyed your video. I have some of these, and some I absolutely want to add to my collection. I have two color change garnets but they start off a greenish brown and go red/pink. I prefer the blue to red. Any idea where I can find one?
These color change garnets from Madagascar are currently very difficult to get. That being said, we were recently able to get two in, but one has sold and I think we still have the other. Please feel free to email our sales staff and they will get you full details on it: Sales@MoreGems.com
I Cut 2 Montana Garnet red. Both have beautiful fire. One has little Starburst that come in or out to dependent on which way the sunset in it! To me they look a lot better than any of those sapphires I have poorly cut LOL.
Nice, garnets are very pretty gems! Well if you want any more fine garnets, we have an amazing selection of top quality garnets here: www.moregems.com/loose-cut-gemstones/garnet-loose-gemstones.html
So many Gems, so little time!! To think I knew about gemstones is an understatement! I know very little. Gems are the mystery and true gift to all of us No Gem is owned by anyone, just borrowed briefly until the eye of the beholder close for the last time. Passed along down the line. Just to know that in the heart of every good soul is a gem that shines forever brightly with the colors of heaven in its gaze. Never to fade away.
Arusha color changing garnet is beautiful, the light changes everything about the stone. It is blue and found in Tanzania on the Arusha river. Zircons are the oldest gemstone in the world at over 4.4 billion years old, it out dates the diamond. Pakistani peridot's color is such a rich greenish blue, nothing compares to it. I love apatite. Neon blue is probably my favorite color of apatite, although I also have clear. Black opals are beautiful too. I do have a black Ethiopian opal that gives you every color of the rainbow. It is radiant. Tsavorite garnet is a vivid grass green garnet. Campbell Bridges who discovered it was killed because he found it. He was able to track it into the Kenyan National Forest and the Kenyan government controls it. Most people don't realize the colors that garnets come in. Purple, blue, red, green, yellow, mint green and an ultraviolet mint green. They are all amazing. I personally have 3 favorites. Imperial topaz, which is from Brazil. A billionaire American purchased the only mine and had a lake made of it. I am glad I got mine before that. Sphalerite from Spain is like looking at the burning embers of a fire. Golds, reds, oranges and greens, every shade you could imagine. Turkish diaspore would be my 3rd favorite. It is a one place gemstone, only found in the Anatolia Mountains in Turkey. It is naturally color shifting or changing. It goes from a greenish yellow in sunlight to a yellowish in incandescent light to a champagne raspberry in candlelight. It is mesmerizing.
Thank you for this information. I am in gemstone. Looking for an investor / collector of gems to work with. I am from Kenya. Tanzanite and other coloured stones tourmaline, blue topaz, and others
Out of this list I am lucky to have the following: Garnet (Grossular var. Tsavorite) - absolutely stunning vibrancy of green. In sunlight it rivals my emeralds. Garnet (Almandine/Pyrope var. Rhodolite) - very nice raspberry garnet Opal (var. Fire - Ethiopian) - Beautiful colour play with a orange fiery glow Opal (var. Black - Ethiopian) - Stunning colour play contrasted with the black Quartz (var. Rose de France) aka Pink Amethyst as a raw druzy. Forsterite (var. Peridot) - Nothing truly compares to this lime green gem I've also made my own red spinel, but not gem quality.
Here’s one to consider adding to your collection. Beautiful gem with an excellent cut. And it’s very reasonably priced. www.moregems.com/products/imperial-zircon-oval-2-54-carats
Ever hear of a lab created Alex? There much less expensive then the earth grown stones. Personally I like the Indian Alexs over the Russian stones. I got a few lab grown Alexs there not bad really.
As a December birthday, I always shunned blue zircon as my birthstone, But now that I've seen better quality, I'm liking it more. London Blue topaz will remain my favorite but a good blue zircon is worthy of attention.
Sphalerites, anyone? It's R.I. 2.3+ and doesn't double refract. But it's 3x dispersion of diamond and many specimens seem rather opaque... Still friggin good for the price tho
another very underrated gemstone is rutile. synthetic rutile, or TiO crystal, has the highest refractive index and highest dispersion of any wearable gemstone.
Although it's not on this list, one gem that will potentially rise in price is Tanzanite. Another gem is Ethiopian Opal, if the market for these gems keeps growing, this new material could rise in price as well. The high quality gems will have the biggest impact when looking at a gem for investment purposes.
I have never heard of alexandrite-like garnet. Wow!! That color change was amazing! But I have to agree with this list here. I love the zircon and spinels. I guess, from a selfish and personal perspective, I am glad that they're not way over the top expensive. They really do have some beautiful grapefruit like colors. And the ethiopian opal seems to be pretty popular these days. Not super expensive (which is probably why it's popular).
The color change garnets are sweet! They are very popular with our customers (when we can find them). It's difficult to find top color and color change. We usually only get a few each year. When we get them, they typically sell very quickly! Ethiopian opal is one of our favorites! As a relatively new ( and very productive)source of opal, it currently has a great price and you can get an amazing gem in a large size for a very reasonable price, compared to other sources. We have a website dedicated to our opal selection, and you can see it here if you are interested: www.OpalLust.com -- Steve Moriarty personally selected each piece of rough, then we precision cut it in-house giving them a very fine polish.
I assume (naively?) and hope you're not ~too~ corporate to be allowed to publicly express your personal opinions, so i was hoping you can do a vid expressing your opinions on value vs beauty? In 1st Year Architecture we were taught the words "formalism" and "contextualism". Simply put, formal things eg R.I and dispersion never changes regardless of anything; contextual things like "if the aliens attack us, we'll all sell our gems for guns, and gems will become worthless" changes all the time. I used to sell Japanese swords, and imho value and beauty often do not align. As a jeweller/gemologist/faceter/etc., do you think value-beauty alignment is doable/realistic/or even good? Thanks
+klebics That's deep man... There are many aspects that determine the market value of a gemstone. Popularity/demand, rarity, quality, color, cut, carat weight, durability and so on. This video is detailing our opinion on beautiful stones (with a great cut and quality), that may not be the most popular, but are reasonably priced and may not be widely known by the average consumer.
I am a fan of Demantoid garnets. I do not own one. Most people think that the "Horse Tail" is a major flaw. I consider that to be signature of a Demantoid. The last one that I saw that had had a full "Horse Tail" was a stone of; 11+ cts. That owner demands the highest prices for her goods. (NOT sure if she still has it; but , my guess her ask would be ; > $ 15K USD)
Denise Allison Stout A gentleman named Jim Larimore was kind enough to take me to his home and sit with me for 12 hours and I cut an 8 mm synthetic green quartz.
The only one I'd disagree with is tsavorite. The price indicates that it is pretty much appreciated. It isn't much different than demantoid Garnet with I believe is way over appreciated comparatively.
I have all navarathna stone like 1.Ruby 2.Emerald 3.cats eye 4.. Blue sapphire 5.Yellow sapphire 6.Garnet 7.Amethyst 8.Citrine 9.Gomedakam 10.Royal blue stone
