Wow! Thank you so much for taking us to the show! It really is astounding just how large the show really is! For a show that is held in a small town, in the middle of woods, in the mountains, and this show is huge! It's incredible! And the way that it is laid out is quite unique and very smart. And the special treasures that you brought home from the show were divine! The labradorite was so vivid and quite an exquisite example! Just gorgeous! And the amethyst is absolutely extraordinary! Everything was beautiful! Thank you for the lovely tour of the show!
When I think about the Sainte Marie show I think high end minerals and I don't believe I have ever seen all of the outdoor booths before. There was also more equipment for sale than I expected. Thank you for taking me to the show.
That is so cool to see all the friends in the video ! Thank you Stéphane for sharing it with me I am sending it to Antoine, Sophie and Florian 🎉 Good work with the videi, it is very well representative of how this show is. I would add that all the food booth inside are held by benevolents from local associations (judo club, volley clubs etc). So it's a very familial feeling fair which is totally different from what you have in convention centers. I also hope you had time to go to the Piscine (swimming pool) where you find more french cristals and the people who extract them, some from the Mt Blanc mountain, some from mines of hundred meters depths.
Thanks Justin for the tour and for having visited my booth !! Let's meet again togerher at tye next "apero lapidaires" in Paris, and why not profiting on this occasion to come and visit my glyptics workplace 😉 !

My two favorite things in the video: Those gorgeous large colored gems and the vintage mast on the table. It belongs in a museum!
Haha yes!
Charming location for a gem show, thanks for the view!

This is a good point about the food vendors that I should have mentioned. We are several times at the food tent run by the lumberjack club!

Thank you. Yes you should definitely go. You would love it.
Thanks for sharing
I need to improve my French so I can go enjoy this show one day. Thank you for a lovely mental vacation from smoky Seattle.
Do you have a website for the france gem carver with the octopus? 🙏
Just his instagram: instagram.com/renard.intaglio?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
So he's making an improved jampeg faceting machine?
Yep!!
@@JustinKPrim cool.
In your opinion, what stone should I wear on my right hand to balance out the blue Sapphire energy I wear as a pendant? Thanks.
Maybe more blue to match or something adjacent on the color wheel like green, teal, etc? Just an idea.
@@JustinKPrim I've got this little emerald, 4x6mm. If people wear the 2 together, then thats what I'll do. Thanks for the quick response
Dans quel pays svp.?
Je suis en France 🙏
In Sainte Marie-Aux-Mines in Alsace France. Go visit next summer!
