We hope you enjoy our color change episode! Did you love the candy colors of garnet or prefer the earthy tones of diaspore? Tell us your favorite!
As much as I personally love a good diaspore in general, and, in particular the purple/blue-green/pink colour change diaspores, I just can't go past the vivid blue change garnets from Bekily, Madagascar.
Having said that, my favourite from the video would have to be that sizeable alexandrite in matrix specimen with the cyclic twinning, quite a nice display piece indeed.
I have a Russian Alexandeite from a patient I had in the 1980's. He was in his 90's and had no family. We bonded over gemstones and before he passed away, he gave me his 1.89ct oval Russian Alexandrite. I still have not had it set. I also love Turkish Diaspore. I have a few and my big one( 6.7cts) changes from green in the sun to raspberry champagne in candlelight. It is stunning. I also own color changing garnet, sapphire, and zircon. All are beautiful.
Woewwe alexandrite is extremely expensive and sought after
I bought 3 zanderites from you guys about 20 years ago. They change from green to pink. I still have them in my collection today!
I used to collect color change gems. I have zandrites, color change cubic zirconias, alexandrites, a fluorite and garnet. My favorite is alexandrite because it glows red under uv light. The most dramatic color change is the Blue purple zandrite.
The ‘pleochroism’ vs ‘color change/shift’ heads up was much appreciated! Dang, it’s crazy how much I learn with you guys ❤️
My first and favorite stone is alexandrite i have 11
4 Russian
I love colour change gems. I have some nice Turkish Diaspore, sapphires and garnet's, but no Alexandrite. Great video 2x👍
Ahh! Finally I know what the stone is! My mother has a ring with a very clear big stone that changes colour from blue under fluorescent light to purple under incandescent. She told me her mother bought it off of a street vendor years ago in China. So it's a colour change fluorite. It doesn't worth much but still pretty.
I love my color change gems! I don't have any Alexandrite yet, but I do have several blue to red color change garnet and a large turkish diaspore. I have one green to red garnet wirh a strong color change. Loved the video.
I always find alexandrite to be fascinating. Hope to own it one day.
I love colour change gems. My engagement ring features a gorgeous colour change sapphire (blue to purple) that also fluoresces. Thanks for featuring these spectacular minerals!
The russian alexandrite is 35k, to be expected, but still insanely cool to me, it's a very rare stone
My mother inherited my greatgrandmothers Alexandrite and I was in line to inherit next. She just happend to not be wearing it the day someone broke into our home and stole it with many other things . Fortunately I have a picture of her wearing it. It was a very large round brilliant cut. My great grandmother while weaing it i recall seeing it a very deep blue more than green shade . It would sometimes become very bright violet . It was usually violet on my mother . Beautiful !
These are awesome. What a coincidence too, I just got my alexandrite ring today and was admiring it so much and now this video pops up! I could only see it get to a lighter blue with the naked eye which was so hard to capture on camera, as it'd look more purple on my phone no matter what I did. Lovely shots on the vid, I wish I could see those other stones in person ❤❤
You forgot iolite/dichroite/ cordieorite. I have some peices with blue,red,yellow and pink all in one stone and some have asterisism/ cats eye. I can ship you some of it if you would like.
We didn't forget it! Iolite has eye visible pleochroism. It shows different colors based on the vibration direction of the light passing through it. That's a different property than color change. But we did do a whole video on Iolite: th-cam.com/video/MAuRzeoOjwk/w-d-xo.html
@Gemstones I have a giant iolite/cordieorite/ dichroite collections with gem specimines up to 5 lbs and clean. Also has a cats eye effect and blue Schiller.
I actually found an Alexandrite after years of looking for a real one that I could afford. Myself, my only daughter and only granddaughter are all Geminis 😂
I look forward to doing that myself one day!
I got lucky enough to get two alexandrites from Madagascar! Not quite as intense as the Russian ones but still very cool! Mine are more of a soft blue green to a purple with a hint of very very very light red and the other more of a blueish purple. Not quite the famous green to red but still two of my favorites, especially since I can say I have untreated alexandrites in my collection!
Fantastic episode! Love color change and color shift gems! Thank you Rob and Rebecca.
Those were pretty killer color change gemstone! I love the color xhange stones and i knew about alexandrite but i could never afford it! Now i know about these other beautiful stone that color change as well and I'm thrilled! I may be able to afford a color change gem stone yet! Thanks you guys!
One of my fav types of color change comes from stones with the Usambara effect. Thanks for this video!
I inherited a beautiful vintage ring with a large color changing stone from my godmother. A friend thinks it could be an “older Alexandrite”, but I honestly have no idea. It’s very similar in color & size to the stone at 6:03, & changes from a purple/red when worn inside, to a gorgeous blue/green in sunlight.
I would love to find out what it is before I have the setting fixed or rebuilt. I don’t know where to start. Do you have any suggestions for me?
all stones very good very clean and very rare but diaspor or zultanite very very rare
Holding in front of the candlelight is most beautiful. the best alexandrites definitely come from Russia. Brazil. Sri Lanka. Tanzania.
What is the durability/hardness of Zandrite? With the similarities you listed between diaspora & conundrum, there is a big difference in hardness.
There is also color-change andesine, but it's usually treated by human.
I love.....alexandrite...
hello, can garnet stones have a cat's eye effect?
Yes they can, however they are relatively uncommon.
Hmm... My mom has a clear gemstone necklace that shows both bright orange and violet- would that be something synthetic? I can't figure out what it is.
I just bought a color change sapphire ring from JTV and it’s so pretty!
Alexandrite my all time favorite stone! Former Brothrt stole and sold them..
Yessss beautiful beautiful beautiful
So beautiful!❤ thanks so much 🥰 Love them all….
I always liked Garnet, but you made like Alexandrianite. Cool video 🤗💕
The rough alexandrite is my favourite.
Rob is adorable when he’s hung over 😂
Love me the apple green to raspberry Xandtite
I have some red rocks with quarts in it, and some gold speckled. I have no Idea what the red rock is and I dont know if its bits of gold or pyrite. Can someone help? I grabed them from the grass border rocks in my back yard so I have a ton of them.
They are all beautiful!!
Becca my favorite is a blue sapphire.
Another awesome episode. I fell in love with those garnets 😍 🎉
diaspore looks so cool
I got some turkish Diaspore, it also turns green under Florence light. Pink to gold also. Is this normal?
I have a 6 carats LEXANDRITE FROMRussia and I wear it everyday cuz they say it is a stone that gives you luck and good fortune and I believe it really does.those of you who have that stone have a setting on it of white gold 18 k wear it and you will feel the luck that it emits .
I have some stone small one red and purple
How do I purchase one of those handheld lights that switches from incandescent to fluorescent????
Awesome 👍👍👍
Can't wait to have one of those, especially the garnets.
Any episode of padparacha, btw?
Greetings from Indonesia...
It looks like fluorite has a deeper dark color than Sapphire. How does Fluorite compare with Garnet?
Does the zandrite have interesting fluorescence in UV? Depends which rare earth elements have been added.
It is not florescent under uv light, but alexandrite is. It is bright red.
Cool
seeing is beliving.what if seeing proves for the first color change red emerald on my channel?
Watching JTV, I now have an alexandrite, fluorite and zandrite color change
Does JTV ship gemstones to Australia?
For international shipping options, you have to contact their customer experience team at 1-800-550-8393
Very cool. Do you what is orange clear. Very hard like quartz
Please wich light is best for gemstone
I have alexandrite from Risha
What about YAG?
Where you get that flashlight ?
My favorite would be any gem that is in its natural mined conglomerate; otherwise it just looks like colored glass. Just sayin.
Thanks
How can I get my stones tested
I have number of gemstones. How can i send them to you. I am from srilanka.
Can we have a jewelry check ? On you all rather interested :,D
Good morning. I am the owner of a gem identical to the one shown and if anyone wants to buy it I am willing to sell it. It is very beautiful and unique. Whoever sees it will definitely buy it
....and named after the leader of Russia...
Love color changers, garnet, sapphire, even have a topaz that is very dramatic.
Glass...is NOT a gem.
Obsidian, moldavite and Libyan Desert glass are all naturally-occurring gem glasses. Whether man-made substances can be gems is another argument.
I really really really want an Alexandrite ring! 🥹 and it has a significance to me. A loved one is a Gemini and from Sri Lanka, where some Alexandrite is found. ✨
I have a piece of Turkish diaspore in a ring that I sadly rarely wear because it has perfect cleavage and isn’t particularly hard put I love to look at the colour change.
