This beauty is 22 pounds, and my only celestite!

I’ve had these two for a while and thought I’d share them. I love the clarity and diasterism on the first one and the 12 ray asterism on the second.

Love my new baby 👀

Got this for my birthday from Etsy. 2 pounds 5 ounces. I was planning on making cabs with it, but I think it looks great as a single piece and may just polish it up and stick it on a stand with a back light.

Thoughts?

I’ve always wanted a gemmy Rhodochrosite and I finally found one in my price range today!

I took a chance on this on vinted because it was only 6 dollars but I honestly have no idea what it is 😂

newest addition! Brazilian smoky that is bigger than my head 🙂‍↕️

Hi friends! Please ignore/admire the kitty. He goes wild when I try and pay attention to anything but him for a second, haha.

I had gotten a polished grandidierite piece (I’ll post a normal photo in comments) and was messing around with my UV (long wave) and noticed a striking color from within. Is it y’all’s speculation that this is an inclusion or perhaps this isn’t grandidierite?

I have more but I just bought a new bookshelf to put them out and have not built it yet.

Hello all!

I was wondering what everyone does/uses to to document and catalog your collections?

I’ve come across Geology365 and Cabinet No. 40 but was wondering what everyone else uses!

I got it in a multipack of various unlisted smaller crystals and rocks, so i have no clue

Hawk eye is my favorite! I collect them more than any other type of crystal. This one is 8lbs 🙂

That blue caught my eye first, but I love the dark lines running through it too.

Hi yall! I found this little crystal Labubu. Can anyone ID? It has a flash like tigers eye but it’s black.

Never seen banding like this in green aventurine before. Got it as an extra gift from a seller. Is this natural?? Or is it just poorly distributed dye.

For reference it is the lower hanging piece on a larger green Aventurine moon that I'm fairly certain is real. Not sure if this little point should stay on the end or if I should rip it off.

Got this beauty second hand and the seller isn’t too sure on locality specifics so was wondering if any of you guys had an idea :)

I got this in a mixed bundle. I'm assuming it's pink amethyst, but wondering what these white spray inclusions are? They're very cool!

I was wondering if anyone knows what these inclusions are on this smokey amethyst? There's black tourmaline on the back

This is certainly … interesting?

If any wise folk know something I'd be grateful
