So fascinating. Some very beautiful & intriguing specimens

[@noneavailable760]

I just wanted to comment that I really like your videos, because they express true love for the craft. I like how different your thinking is from a common comercial jeweler. It always seems that your true aim is to bring out the beauty/potential of gems, and to cut the best stones you can out of a rough (not only the biggest, or the one you could sell higher for the least effort). I truly respect your passion.

Thanks Andres, I'm a recreational gem cutter so I try to facet the best gem. Because I don't sell them, I'm not restricted by time or labor costs. For me it's about the art and the joy of cutting gems. Cheers Cliff

Fabulous collection of gems. Would love to find some myself one day but have no idea where to look☹️. Thanks for sharing.

I wouldn't mind going out looking around for some mineral specimens when it cools down.

Muitas pedras. Coleção maravilhosa.

Lovely minerals. I wouldn't know most if they hit me in the head, but they're lovely. Thanks for sharing this piece of mother nature, and good luck with the new project!

[@VintageTimeGems]

Thanks Kathy....There are a lot of mineral in this batch I've never heard of either.

Excellent presentation, Cliff. The blue/green Malachite was my favorite, it seemed to display some areas of irradiance that is stunning.
Thanks for putting this video together... Can't wait for part two.

[@VintageTimeGems]

Thanks John.

[@tamwolf20]

Very cool to see. Look forward to seeing more when you post them.

[@VintageTimeGems]

Thanks Tam. I'll start on part 2 later in the week. Seems to take forever to make these videos. So many edited clips.

[@round51]

The sampleite is pretty rare, unless of course you live in, Australia or Chile. Looking forward to seeing the rest. 🧐 Some forms I’m not used to seeing as well.

[@VintageTimeGems]

I wasn't familiar with many of these minerals. But I'm slowly learning.

[@Liburni]

Thanks for presentation Cliff , nice collection of gems and minerals. My place is poor of minerals , i find myself some calcit and onyx, but 50km near me have bauxite ore, maybe one day i go visiting ...

[@VintageTimeGems]

Thanks....When you get time you should start your own collection with local gems and minerals. regards Cliff
