Omg I love Antoinette! She's always such a dear when she's on. She sounds like she really love her job and the way she talks about the Gem stones makes me feel like she really does love this business ❤
When I was young. ( 60"s ) I wanted to be a gemologist. Or geologist. At that time in history. Jobs just did not pay very well. So I eventually became a Chef. I sure missed out. But I still love and collect rocks. & jems. ( a rock hound )
I’ve had a quick scan of the comments and I don’t think lighting has been discussed yet so I’ll ask: Why don’t you simulate the various lighting conditions that either enhance and detract from the beauty of the gem when you are making episode? If you can set up these various light views, from the old incandescent and fluorescents through to modern LED and ultraviolet lighting it would be a very helpful service to novice and experienced gem enthusiasts. Also, if you combined the lighting with very close motion viewing, you would be providing a comprehensive educational experience that many of us (in remote locations) don’t have access to. I love the show, keep up the great work. Chip from Moresby, via Geraldton, Western Australia. 👍😎.
This channel is absolutely delightful~as well as the hosts being marvelous. Antoinette is a wonderful resource and I love her delivery of this interesting information! Beautiful! 😃
why didn't you mention aquaprase is a variety of chalcendony? I feel like this happens quite often, important and interesting details being left out...
With the emerald, right before she said its from the US my mind went to North Carolina! This lady in town must have rock hounded in one of the public mines there and brought back a bunch of materials to sell. She didn't know what she was selling but she was selling for a really fair price and I was content. I bought something opaque hexagonal with 3 sides intact that she thought was emerald.. But I presume possibly apatite. Id love to visit North Carolina and get a big raw hexagonal specimen of emerald.. Idc if super clear or opaque.. Just the natural beautiful hexagonal structure is amazing on its own to me.
If I'm not mistaken the red beryl comes from Utah. I think I'm pretty lucky cause I just so happen to live in that state! By the way, that red beryl bracelet was astonishingly beautiful!
I've always looked at sapphires, deep deep blue , as a reflection of mine and my wife's relationship. It's deep into the darkest parts of life , we keep it secretive , but at the right angles it's raging blue fire. It's a matter of perspective. North Carolina is the place I hope to buy a get away home . We want one for just specimen hunting . The state is loaded with a huge multitude of mineral variations. Hiddenite ...
One of my fav episodes. Loved seeing the new locations for emerald and ruby. Now I need to collect them. Seeing that "red emerald" again I exist to own it
Wow another discovery out of Africa!! Aquaprase is lovely. I've been a JTV buyer of gems for many years and now discovering their You tube channel. I learned about all the beryls from JTV and Bixbite is awesome. The ruby Natalie was wearing sort of looked like a pink Spinel. I have a black Spinel parcel I bought years ago from JTV and I absolutely love them. Definitely a new subscriber~~!!
@@LouisVuittonPrince no it isn't. I have 3 emeralds and have had all of them certified through different labs. They are emeralds and they are a bright grass green.
Tanzanite is my favorite gemstone following flag black opal from lightning ridge, Australia. Tanzanite is, for the most part, yellow Zoisite, heated up to 800 degrees F for a night in a campfire in Tanzania. It is almost. Perfectly without occlusions and is becoming scarce. It is pleochristic. This mean s if you look at it from one side it's 💜 purple. Turn it 90% and it is Cornflower blue rivaling Kashmir Sapphire. Cutting top side up blue gives far less weight but is far more rare and expensive. It's promo began with Tiffany in NYC, one of the big world jewelers. IMHO they are in descending order Harry Winston, Cartier, Van Kleff & Carpels & Tiffanys. They must be cut deep to show full color saturation. Diamond Simulants are available which fooled me without my refractometer. 🐥♥️
Zambian Emeralds are a tad blueish with almost no inclusions. Out of the many raw emeralds I've found on the beach at known Galleon Wreck sites in Florida after 🌀s. they float and stay on top. There's only 2 llet left. I know where 'they r.
I was able to get a beautiful Winza ruby ring from Tanzania. Simply stunning. I also received Thai rubies and Vietnamese rubies they are all different but beautiful. I think my Burmese ruby is the second prettiest.
I love microscrystaline quartz and gem silica gems. They are my favorite after Corundum. I honestly like all gemstones that are a 6-10 on the MOHS scale, but Diamonds are my least favorite of them all. I like Feldspars more than I like Diamonds.
Beautiful gemstone, you can get for cheaper because it’s not from the actual location of revere high-quality, but rivals it in quality and it has metaphysical properties sign me up
I so loved everything about this episode.. the amazing gems and the wonderful enthusiastic knowledgeable passionate guest !! Wow is all I can say !! First I thought like everyone else Columbian emerald but then I had guessed N.C for it as soon as she said it wasn't Columbian.. And the "red emerald-beryl" maybe should be called a "Fire Emerald " for all the passion it displays
My engagement ring is with an emerald :) I understand the symbolism and beauty of a diamond. However, colored gems are my thing for sure. :) (my first marriage was a garnet, hoping this second green one is indeed everlasting love ;)
When i saw the emeralds, i was wondering ... is my computer doing a kind of trick to me whith colors ? Also happy to learn and see about ruby and the new gemstone. Thank's for sharing. stef.
When I hear rubies, my 6 year old inner child thinks of sand rubies that I would use to look for in the playground sand box when that was a thing in Arizona.
JTV I love the channel and can't get enough boxing episodes but I was given a great big chunk of dark blue-ish botryoidal turtle back agate by my 9th grade teacher this year it has some hints of white in it and I need to know some more about it can you please make an episode
@JRRnotTolkien yeah but the info was usually about different agates if not then the agate family and plus not alot of results showed up for my type of agate plus noone can explain agates as good as her

As an honorary gem nerd I vow to never judge the beauty of gems based on localities
Shut up
As a gemologist, I have to agree. 💎 Gemstones are beautiful no matter where they come from!
@@Persac7 that's unnecessarily rude
I love every video with Antoinette. I learn a lot about gems' history.
This is my third (fourth?) time watching this video. I learn so much from Antoinette. So much fun.

That red beryl bracelet was amazing! I've never seen so many at one time. My jaw dropped.
Oh my gawd. I could listen to Antoinette speak all day. She has amazing annunciation!

A new type of gem? Gawd Homeworld Peridots have been busy

I like the idea of the name “Red Emerald.”
Emerald is my birth stone and have loved this gem since I discovered this.
This was great! Feeling the need to go rock hunting now. :)
Same!!

Blues and greens are my favorite! Please make an episode on the Canadian cobalt-blue arctic spinel.
I would love to see an Artic Spinelle
As would I.
Was a minuscule, non-economic find, alas.
Ruby is my birthstone and that one is stunning, and the person I'm dating had emerald as theirs. So cool!
Fascinating shoe both in info and examples. The guest of course fabulous! Thank you...
Very interesting show... I was drooling!! The jewelery was define!
I love how enthusiastic nattily is about gems
Great to hear North Carolina mentioned. :)
that necklace is stunning, looks like it's straight out of El Dorado or something.
I love these videos!! Thank you for them! ❤️
Loved this episode!! Thank you. 🥰🥰😄😄
What happened to the seperate close-up shots at the end? Why is it just still from earlier in the video? The closeups show so much more
I absolutely love Aquaprase...I am lucky to own a small parcel of it in very translucent gemmy-jelly cabochons...they are dreamy!!! 💗💗💗
Antoinette. How much would a Ct. of red bixbite cost in todays market ? And the bracelet you brought? How many Ct. And its appraised value ?
I was going say NC!!! It's in our mountains...we also had rubies in the area
I can’t wait untill Thursday I get to go to a huge gem store and buy stuff 😆
Thanks I always save up all my allowance and when we go to visit my aunt I spend it all on gems
@@redacted2319 great way to spend it
Renaissance Novice my parents don’t think so 😬
no wonder the wizard of oz chose rubies and emeralds because they compliment eachother so nicely or is that just me
Tanzania has beautiful clear rubies too. Love that ruby.
Bluish emeralds would be African??? Siberian Emerald is beautiful too.
Siberian emerald is a marketing tool for a company selling chrome diopside
@@LouisVuittonPrince no it isn't. I have 3 emeralds and have had all of them certified through different labs. They are emeralds and they are a bright grass green.

Topaz freak here...but no blues need apply, especially treated ones! White topaz is really an underappreciated gem.
I wish there was something I could do to spread this channel
You should share it with all of your friends and family!

Emerald = Zambian most beautiful gemstones. My choice
😁😁😁😁😁😁 thank you, love you guys you are the best. I always learn so much and loved to see Antoinette.
Thanks for watching!
Aquaprase was identified by G.I.A. in 2016 as a new Variety of Chalcedony.
I so loved everything about this episode.. the amazing gems and the wonderful enthusiastic knowledgeable passionate guest !! Wow is all I can say !! First I thought like everyone else Columbian emerald but then I had guessed N.C for it as soon as she said it wasn't Columbian..

"red emerald-beryl" maybe should be called a "Fire Emerald " for all the passion it displays
i love the pendant antoinette is wearing.
Could you go over the heat treating process a little more?
Very good collections while watching it gave me smile on my face😊
I found a few nice emeralds (not that nice, but nice) panning for gems in Hiddenite, NC.
Thanks for your explanation bryl yes is Red and many people can confused with Ruby so which elements is belong to?
Ruby is the gem name for red corundum.
Look up rubies from Montepuez Mozambique, I personally think that stuff's knocking on Burma's doors. Amazing!
World's costliest rubies are here👇
Since emerald comes from ancient Greek, it'd be apt for this red stone to be named after eruthrós - maybe eruthrite? eruthrodite?
Just beautiful and delightful gems I love the new gem aquaprius I hope I spell it out correctly is a sweet treat to the eye.
My engagement ring is with an emerald :) I understand the symbolism and beauty of a diamond. However, colored gems are my thing for sure. :) (my first marriage was a garnet, hoping this second green one is indeed everlasting love ;)

Welcome!
Thank you.
When I hear rubies, my 6 year old inner child thinks of sand rubies that I would use to look for in the playground sand box when that was a thing in Arizona.
😄 Beautiful red Emerald ... I never seen it before ....
Still searching for the elusive emoji. ; ) Smiles abound! Thank you.
Is the new gem called Aquapraves? Or am i hearing it wrongly? It's a very very beautiful color, the blue is very soft and refreshing! I love it
Hi! It is called Aquaprase. You were so close!
@@gems omg thank you for answering!!
I never tell anyone where my stones comes from, Let them think what they may, I know the quality , And to me , thats all that matters.
Best gem video I’ve come across ! Interesting, informative and well presented . New sub here !
Watch Dan Hurds video on Ocean picture stones. Its the same material
Could you show some cutting of diamonds
Fabulous❣️ Thank you, Ladies 😊

@JRRnotTolkien and I like how she explains it
That emerald!! Wow!!!!!
Injust found a bunch of this stuff in an ancient creek bed with meteorites in it as well!!
I have several unmounted synthetic Rubys that look just as good.
Thanks madam for information
Pls make videos on Basra pearl
I agree. She wears it well. Not too big.
How did she get so much Red Beryl?
Very nice! Ty 😀
Thats a gorgeous gem just like you! And so smart too! This is my birthstone
😊. Bixbite...Fire Beryl.
This is new stuff wow loves it 😁 💎💎💎
“Under wraps” huh? I can take a good guess at where that blue gemstone was found. I forgot what the names of those strange pools were though.
You mean the aquapraise if you do please do not share its location sharing it can bring over gem hunters and they can take all of it
It’s unconfirmed so I’m not going to go around spreading rumors.
@@themidnightotaku22 still it's best to keep theory secret as well
Indeed Mr. Cruz.
@@themidnightotaku22 lol
My late wife thought diamonds were cold. She always wanted stones of color.
Awesome ladies
😁😁😁💞 she haves to come back for more vids!!💕😁😁😁
Do you belong to a club or membership that you get regular shipments of gems?
i love antoinette
11:00 is Tiffany & Co. really about to shut its doors forever? 😢😭
Oh wow
(Nearly) 3 years late but I must say, I don't care where it comes from, it's lovely. Not that I'd ever be able to afford it either way! 😂
Beautiful ❤️ forevers tnx
Very nice
i don't like boxes, but gems & earth 😊
I have a Norwegian Emerald wich looks Colombian.
It's quite rare.
Old people are adorable .
Redmerald!!!!!!!!!??????????
Would an Aquaprase be African Larimar ?
Need block chain to be implemented for all gems
Aquqphrase...looks a bit like green spinel would look. If there was any.......
Amazing!!!!! :D
She can be my grandma anytime
What was the new gem?
Aquaprase, after talking all the way around it they finally get to the new gem somewhere 15 minutes into the video.
It is the bluish green chalcedony.
"sister emerald"?
soooo coooooll
😊
On my screen it looks more blue than green
