    The one gem that outshines all other gems is Natalie herself. Absolutely gorgeous.

      you dont need to know my name I don't give a shit abiut how relevant it is.
      But the truth is, Minecraft will shape the next generation of games, when some of the children who played it will grow up to make their own games.

    I have a hearts and arrows cut round moissanite and a hearts and arrows cushion moissanite I love them so much. My favorite cut of all is the radiant cut diamond with so many facets in it absolutely beautiful.
    Will you make a video on silicon carbide/moissanite talking about it and maybe having some comparisons?

      What does a hearts and arrows cut look like? On the table is a carved heart with arrows? She did make a video on Silicon Carbide.

    How long does it take to make a single cut on a gem, on average?

    • @gems
      @gems  6 років тому +1

      On a typical round brilliant that could just take a few seconds using a wheel. However, the time to plan the facets and make sure the angles and measurements are correct is much longer.

    What...is up with the film quality in these videos? It's like y'all have no contrast going? EVERYTHING has a grey haze and super dark. I can barely see the gems and their brilliance is severely muddled. Please fix the lighting/contrast issue.

    • @WaterStar2398
      @WaterStar2398 6 років тому

      Garnet did you try to change the quality on your phone\tablet

    • @AlottaBoulchit
      @AlottaBoulchit 6 років тому

      water star Yeah that's the first thing I did was to check my settings (always keep mine on bright settings), set vid to hq as well. I've watched a lot of videos and this channel is the only one with this issue. Specifically these videos that take place in this table setting. The one's where she's green screened like the LOTR video she looks normal. The last few I looked at of her at this table have the grey haze look too. I think it's safe to say it's not on my end (thus why I posted about it).
