I found this big piece of amethyst at my grandpa's place. It's been sitting here for over 15 years and I was wondering how much it's worth. (The grew stuff at the bottom is just dust.)
Hello! Can anybody help me identify what is this? Thank you🙏🏻
I imagine this question gets asked a lot. Is there a way i can tell whether this is ruby, garnet or something else. The stones are about 3-4mm
My friend sent me a picture of this and I just wondered what type of stone(s) it's made of.
I bought this pair of plugs and it said they were made of natural stone. As they arrived I noticed that they seemed very light weight and less cold than other natural stone plugs I own, it looks more like ceramic with the marbled print. No grooves appear in the lines, they are smooth (but not so smooth like other stones). Today I noticed that they strangely became dirty, like noisy (I almost never wear them) so I washed them with soap and baking soda hoping it would take away the dirt, and the black lines discolored and now they're also scratched. Can real marble look like this after what I've done?
(English is not my first language so if I made errors correct me! Thank you)
Can anyone identify this plz? It's mostly gray in color. In some light it looks like a hint of brown in areas and in other light I see some purple hues. It does have some sparkly areas. Apologies if the video isn't great. Thanks!
Found in my garden
What would be the cost to have something like this cut, shaped and polished by a professional. I would want a small price of it to be cut off to be used for jewelry and perhaps the rest left natural or shaped into something I could display. It’s a gift for my wife.
Does anyone know what kind of stone this is? Usually it shines a lot in the day, it is also a bit covered in things because it has just been winter. The stone is very spikey, if you touch it you would feel that it is very sharp.
Guyysss, it is amethyts or quarts?
This silver bracelet was a deceased relative's jewelry.
It looks most like Green Agate to me. But i'm not certain.
Sorry for the image quality
Thanks in advance!
Walking the mountain and found it.
I’ve had this stone for a few years and I could swear it was a type of jasper, but now I’m unsure. It doesn’t exactly look like your typical Leopard jasper or picture jasper. Anyone have an idea what kind of stone this is? Trying to be intentional with how I harness its power LOL
Is this a moonstone? Thank you
Some sources say it can, other say it can't.
Smells like washing up liquid. Chalky inside but glossy where unbroken. Smells more than a rock should. Found in the ocean
I know it's natural and untreated. I just can't remember what it is. It's fully opaque.
Can someone help me with this? Found outside
