    I think peridot may be my favorite of the green gemstones, which is great for me since they're significantly cheaper to source than many of the other options.

      I've always struggled with being an August baby. The peridot I've seen is always my least favorite shade of green ☹️

      @@Topaz_Estrella Peridot comes in a variety of greens from dark, almost forest green to a pale yellow-green. So there's probably something out there for you. But don't feel compelled to wear it just because it is the stone arbitrarily assigned to your birth month. If you don't like the appearance of peridot, then just wear what you like. For example: my birth stone is Alexandrite and, while I do think it is a pretty stone, it isn't my favorite. So I won't go out of my way to find arbitrary reasons like birth stone to wear a gemstone. Instead, I'll just wear what I like. Another interesting green gemstone, if you're okay with treated stones, is green topaz. It's made in a similar method to most London blue topaz and has been irradiated to add or intensify the color. I think it is quite lovely.

      @@Topaz_Estrella You can always pick onyx as your birthstone if you don't like peridot, or, alternatively, disregard the whole notion of birthstones as it's obviously nonsense and just pick any stone you like.

    Thank you for these videos. I work at a jewelry store with a huge workshop. My boss gives me envelopes of stones from our collection to practice IDing, to supplement my GIA courses. It's super fun to do, and these videos and your website provide great background information. I always enjoy watching!

    I had a peridot birthstone ring in my youth. My hand was struck by a baseball and the stone cracked. I lost track of the ring when I left home 53 years ago. Didn't realize one of my favorite snorkeling beaches on Guam had olivine sand.

  • @LamanKnight
    @LamanKnight 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Green is easily my second-favourite colour (closely following purple, which you've already covered, thank you!), so I love looking at these stones. It's hard to pick a favourite among them.
    But I did have a thought while I watched this video. Since my eyes are green, I've been trying to determine which of these gemstones most closely resembles that colour. (Just in case I ever want a gemstone that matches my eyes, for some reason.) Now, it turns out that humans only ever appear to have blue or green eyes because of a light-scattering effect that takes place inside your eye. Thus, different lighting conditions can change your irises' appearance drastically, making it harder to determine what shade your eye colour truly is.
    Fortunately for me, I have a lamp that gives off bright, cool white light, which I think is the same kind of light used to clearly show off a gemstone's true colour. So, using that for comparison... I think the matching stone I'd want is peridot or idocrase, depending on the exact specimen.
    I guess it's nice to keep that in the back of my mind now. Thank you for showing all of these today.

    @shrapmetal ปีที่แล้ว

    Emerald sets the standard for the most desirable color I think, most of the other stones are most valuable the closer they are to the top emerald color.
    Tsavorite for example actually have more pure green color, but the most valuable color has a bluish green hue to mimic emeralds.
