Every time she says Lapis there is flashing of Lapis's face in my mind!... 😄😄😍😍😍🙋
Aman Mandiya just like the peridot episode
Cain Harris Yess 😁
Aman Mandiya it’s actually spelled Lapis. Just wanted to point that out
TheUltimatePvzLord385 PS how do people manage to misspell the name of the gemstone when it’s literally in the title of the video??
TheUltimatePvzLord385 PS sorry for the spelling😅
So this is were lapis went after she took the barn.
Luna The Purple Fire Cat :(
OH MY GOD IM DEAD
Luna The Purple Fire Cat nah I went to the moon
with all my stuff
Peridot R. No regrets.
Oh!.. My my!...
😍😍😍 Lapis lazuli
...
...
She is great!... 😘😘
(steven universe)
yeah she is great
Gray spinel is actually quite beautiful
First time seeing this channel. Very educational and funny! Though as you were describing the color and features of the tiny gemstone I could not see the detail with just you holding it closer to the camera and pointing.
I would recommend scattering some of the pieces of photography at the end throughout the video. I would be better able to take in what you know about these gemstones that way.
Thanks Wesley! You can also go to the JTV Gems Instagram (link in description) to see more photography from the episodes.
UCLA - blue and gold. :)
Lapis is a gorgeous stone. I've recently been drawn to it. The blue with the flecks of pyrite is just memorizing, like stars in a night sky.
I can arrange it for you, if you want it.
I agree. I recently got a couple pieces and was amazed at just how beautiful lapis truly is
Lapis is probably one of my favorite gemstones ever.
The boxes being a soft grey, a lovely neutral tone, may not be representative of gemstones, BUT that way they don’t compete or distract from the gemstone contents-cuz they deserve to have the full spotlight
I agree I love the colour of lapis lazuli....also I love lapis lazuli from steven universe. ...
No wait. You can tell the difference because lapis has pyrite bits in it and sodalite doesn't
Moody Man not a large chunk, but I have lots of lapis beads and cabochons that have little gold flecks in them that are pyrite 🙂
Moody Man I have a big lapis lazuli cabochon with a polished dome but a rough bottom and both sides have a lot of pyrite
OrangeFluffyCat I have some huge pieces of lapis, virtually all grades of lapis will have some pyrite, some of the higher quality pieces have flecks but generally pyrite is good for distinguishing the two
Lapis Lazuli is my fav. Those bands that are on the side are from the way it is formed in sheets.
Lapist Is a beautiful shade of blue, I love it.
Thank you.
Just found your channel from film theory. This is my new rock channel
Matthew McCabe I also found this channel through Film Theory, but at the time the video came out, which was months ago.
Great! Matpat is the best! We're happy you've joined!
JTV I'm happy I joined too, lol. But yeah. Quality content on an interesting subject.
Ooof, what a lovely Lapis Lazuli collection you had here for us today. The gold and white flecks and lines really accentuate this massive hunk, and the tiny cabochon as well. It's such a beautiful kind of stone, very dark and yet able to stand out perfectly against muted colors of your set today, even against other dark blues like your coat's. Lovely episode, as always!
Lapis is one of my favorite material.
Ah, my favorite stone finally showcased! 💙
Could add some shelving with gems & geodes in the background set, lit with some soft lamps on the gems & geodes it's displaying
Also, magnifying glass-lamp on the table so we can see more of the details on the gem being showcased?
DreamDruid89 $$$$
If you want to see something really amazing made out of lapis, look up the Ishtar Gate.
I love lapis because the contrast with the blue and gold makes me think of stars in the sky :)
You should make the background a colage of pictures of gems
Ancient Egypt one used to grind Lapis Luzuli into powder to make blue paint and makeup.
I love lapis! I have lapis in jewelry ! You should have a picture of an English Garden in your background.
She’s so adorable 😻😻😻
A background of abstract flowers would be great with the gemstones. My high school football colors were blue and gold, West Hardin Oilers.
Came from Film Theory, have always been so interested in gemology, even when I was a kid I would find the shiniest stones in my grandfather's creek and collect them. Great to find this channel, I love videos like these.
just a suggestion, can we have the camera to do a 360 on the gems cause the light reflecting off it may be different in certain lighting.
i love your vids btw :3
This is so far my favorite video, your facial expressions... classic!
More so, aside from ruby, lapis is my favorite stone!❤❤❤💕
I want one
Wait
.

Forget what I said
Idea for your set.
Photographers backdrops. Grey pattern or another color.
Could change them from time to time depending on topic.
Perhaps a white mat under the box to set the items on.
Lapis always makes me think of King Tut. By the way I love your channel I'm having a lot of fun watching it!
We've actually done a video on King Tut & the hidden gemstones in his tomb, check it out here: ruclips.net/video/Ht4Xh8IlC_g/видео.html
@Connie H I always think of the night sky at 2 or 3am
University of Michigan is technically maize(gold) and blue.
You're glasses match the lapis really well. Yes plants. Soften the background and lighten it. Box- maybe a lighter gray with sparkle.
spicy
Bob
Hi BoB dO yOu PlAy BaSeBaLl?
No prob bob
I would like to know more about the not so expensive gemologist tool for testing each stone and crystal.
I love the black, white, and grey.
Beautiful lapis lazuli. I have lapis lazuli earrings bead stud earring and a bracelet.
I SOOOOO WANT these Lapis sunglasses I saw online!😱 the frames are Lapis & Gold🤩😍🥰 ...Lapis was WORSHIPPED By the Anasazi and they used it to vibrate into higher dimensions
Plz show a gemstone call phosphophyllite
Houseki no Kuni?
David Nguyen antarcticite ;p
Personally I think that the gray boxes, and dark background help the Stones stand out. As you taught me, just like a black opal, the darker the background the more your color stand out :-) thank you guys for all you do and for providing me a fun and educational program
That slab of lapis looks kinda like a book, it can be the book of lapis 😆
Neat video. Boxes wouldn't be bad if the background was nicer. Black background make it hard to focus on you (dark sweater and hair on dark background).
Where do your production crew find these amazing gems?
What about smoky quartz
8:55 is it just me, or things seem a bit more interesting at this time mark (if you know what I mean)?
.
13:01 Is it just me...?
I'm really thinking now that the Lapis Lazuli I owned was actually Sodalite... but TBH if so, I liked the Sodalite better. Still it would have been nice to have known for sure.
How can you use that to dye some wool?
I personally couldn’t bring myself too pic a stone and grind it down for pigment.. although the hues of colour in the final result are something else 💎 it’s amazing how many forms of art gems & minerals fit comfortably into.
If you’re carving it into a shape for jewelry, you’ll need byproduct not suitable for jewelry.
been subbed since 3k nice to see you grow
Lapis Lazuli! reminds me of Whispers of the Heart everytime
Yes, I looove lapis! I actually have a lapis lazuli bracelet that I adore!
I like that idea! Green plants and white table! Still neutral!
You can use it to enchant stuff
I was expecting the first one to be bigger 😂
I like the gray!!!!
If you guys really do decide to change the studio up a bit, I think a lavender backdrop would look lovely!! Also, if I could choose the color of the boxes, I’d go for cyan!
I have a question: Is Rose Gold a natural color? Because the only time I’ve seen it is on manufactured products.
oh my god, the peanuts "wah wah" 's for the people of screen, A+ editing choice
Oh dear that's a beautiful lapis lazuli specimen
Can anyone tell? How much days or weeks or months it takes for this stone to show effects after wearing...
What type of equipment is used to differentiate sodalite from lapis lazuli? I just got a stone that it was sold as a "blue jasper" but it has inclusions that looks like silver, aluminum or zinc, with a shape like roots and I would like to identify it.
Also, perhaps you could use pastel, soft colours. It adds life without overshadowing the vibrance of the gemstones discussed!
I’ve have Lapis Lazuli. A lot of them, I put them right next to Angelite Crystals. Both Lapis Lazuli and Angelite are the most powerful Gem.
I love this show, and Natalie,you ARE SO CUTE
Ok so can I enchant my tools or no? Do I need a enchanting tabel?
Are u trying to get rid of the lapis lazuli
Kinda sad my fave su character wasn't mentioned
Yea that’s cuz it’s mentioned too much on other places. Please enjoy lapis lazuli for the amazing gemstone it is. Not for peridot’s Gf.
I love your channel!
Thank you!!
YESSSSS LAPIS LAZULI.
What do I know? I don't know. But I don't think the grey box matters. To me, the box should be subordinate in color, tone, and emotive power, to the content of the box. Maybe wedding presents, and maybe Christmas presents, are different. I don't think it matters if it's gemstones or chocolate calcite. The box is not sad, it's polite.
i hope they zoom in more to the gemstone
The thing about the plain colors is that they offset the more colorful gemstones.
What about gray diamond plus isn't toxic in water
Lipas was also use in King Tut's Head Dress.
Its not that hard to find out which is which lapsis is softer than,soda lite scratch one with a known source thats 5 to 5.5 hard if it wont,scratch it its soda lite if it will its lapsis or vice versa use something 6 hard it is a little iffy as they are closely hardness but soda litle is harder so you can specifically use the what will scratch what to,tell
Didn't Egyptians use it in their images as well? Like Osiris is painted in Lapis?
As a child I had rock stands, instead of lemonade stands. Don't know why I didn't stick with it. I would have fools gold, and pebbles from gravel driveways that had amethyst looking inclusions featured in my inventory. Wishing now that I had pursued geology a little more seriously.
The last two are collectors wet dream :))) I envy their owners
I think you need a gray carpet for that table the way you handle gems and fine carvings. Ha!
Late as recovery from my appendix removed but worth it. Hoping to see Cinnabar stone on here one day.
You're awesome! So is Lapis
Thanks, Jennifer!!
Soak it in nail polish remover or acetone. If color comes off then it’s dyed lower quality. If not then it’s real
@@cecilejourdan5500 I’m from london but at the moment I’m pakistan managing my Jewelery business. Tbh I could look at lapis and tel if it’s fake now 😂. I’ve seen sooo much real lapis. We have over 25kg of madani 4 lapis pigment, real lapis cabachons, real lapis rough peices and polished peices/chunks. We do sell. And you’ll be shocked with the prices 😂 . We get lots from the mines such as jundak, we do have madani but that’s quite expensive and we only sell lots.
@@cecilejourdan5500 the problem is a lot of people sell to outsiders very expensive but in lots, or over priced. But again I think it’s ok since they got to eat. Imagine 😂 we get our lapis super cheap…. But not going to reveal, as the miners and the community would not be happy 🤪
@@cecilejourdan5500 70% of lapis in the market is fake now days or sodalite dyed 😅. Or low quality dyed. A sort of resin or glas 😂
Since you asked, I am a huge fan of the pink, blue and purple colour scheme. If it was me to decide how the set should look I would do something along these lines. A psychedelic tarp would also look great! But you know, that's just me.
"'That's so small", "Look how tiny that is !"I was expecting something more" Size is not all that matters ok ? :'(
More seriously those are beautiful gemstones. The color must have been particularly striking in ancient times, with blue being so rare in nature.
She’s just used to a bigger specimen ….
How does it form exactly is the question 😕
Antlers high school in Oklahoma colors are blue and gold
I’m your biggest fan
How much for that huge chunk?
If as much passion as critism for the grey box had been given to the topic,namely lapis lazuli it would have been a pleasant video to watch.
I have an idea for the boxes lol
How about a white box with holo rainbow "paint splashes" and a reverse of it :3 (Holo rainbow box with white splashes)
I have some with opal colourplay
First, she was caught in a mirror and now she was caught in a box... Just wow
Uncut diamonds are grey and they are a cube like the box.
If I could paint I would so grind that up. for paint it is the most amazing color
The set is fine.
You could also put it on the back of a mirror as an accent! 😂😂😭😭
SO glad she is gone. She would just not shut up. If you are a gemologist and have trouble separating sodalite from lapis you need to flip burgers.
While lapis is opaque, high quality lazurite is often translucent to transparent in thin sections.
Unfortunately, most of the stones labelled lazurite for sale online are lapis lazuli not lazurite. It's a shame because lazurite is such a beautiful gem itself and deserves to be appreciated as such.
Do a video about Houseki no kuni. Maybe about the various gemstones in it, and thoughts about the show.
The mineral specimen really reminded me of azurite. I wonder if they're at all related. I have an azurite specimen in an almost identical matrix.
Why is the person at the start off screen talking through a drive thru speaker?
