oo wow

Looks gorgeous. I just think from design stand point I wish you kept your horse shoe a little longer. I thought it’s just half circle until you explained what it was supposed to be. It looks stunning anyways!

What is the hardness????

Alway want to know the price 🤩

Florals for sure! So much character and beauty <3

Very cool

Damn beautiful piece

Love it

I was lucky to come across a little red octahedral spinel that fluoresces beautifully and it didn’t break the bank. Love this stone and how high on the mohs it sits. Great vid and lovely eye candy for people like me who can’t afford the gemmy faceted type!

Mt toxic trait is thinking I can do this ⚰️⚰️⚰️

I don't know why you say a budget under 6k to not look for this? I've found many beautifully faceted, unheated natural stones for under half of that number. The trick is to find dealers who specifically deal with natural gemstones, not a basic jewelry store. The sizes have all ranges.

How contact yu 😊😊

Finishing is gonna be a pain, though

Clarity is good

the stone looks extremely clean, very nice

Looks like Morganite

Beautiful stone

I’m wondering if yellow gold or white gold is more popular for rings in this past couple of years. I’m not sure if I should go 18k gold or platinum as I want to look more current

I'm learning so much from your easy to understand and enjoyable videos.

I am newly obsessed with the grey spinels. I have never seen a green one. Do they exist in nature?

I consider Spinels to be in the top tiers of gemstone with diamonds emeralds rubies and sapphires actually...when the most famous ruby in the world (black prince) turns out to be actually a Spinel - you know they're fit for royalty.....best secret gemstone ever

Pure white sapphires are also extremely rare.....far rarer than diamonds

When is mother's day date ?

great info - one of the best summaries I've seen! I wish you mentions cat's eyes though

please talk about jedi pink spinel

Love it!

This is fascinating. My question is: can you grow an emerald in the same manner as a lab grown diamond as opposed to created which is entirely synthetic? Apologies if not clear, I am not very knowledgeable in this field. Thank you.

For me if its women emerald if men sapphire

That’s actually true

beautiful

Can you tell something about spinel fluorescence?

I totally get why it looks like a copy and it does. But I feel like if you want a "enamel flower" it will always look very very similar. Doesn't mean it's a copy.

Wow dont know they been lied to us when buying fake gold jewelry and other gemstones jewelry

Nice info video Dominique. Spinels are so underrated. Awesome job again!

Great ♥️♥️

Furrr baby

good video and informative

👏👏👏👏👏👏💎💎💎💎

Loved the video! Very informative.

I was all excited when your segment was on spinels! I purchased an Art Deco ring with channel set green spinels last week, and anxiously waited for you to share some you had. Alas, I saw only one at the beginning in a still. I was so sad!

Elegant

Spinel is a great gem and it really felt like that secret stone with excellent physical properties that no one knew about. It's a bit sad that as it's becoming more popular it's also getting more expensive. I would love to put my hands on a nice jedi spinel one day, but with this pricing I probably won't 🙄

Your "Baby" is awesome! :) Luv every day!

Thankyou - excellent clear explanations. Does the black get misidentified in vintage jewelry. It seems like there are so many black stones and beads and cabochons. I always love the story of the red spinel in UK Crown Jewels was always thought to be a ruby. ❤💎😳

Amazing!😍😍😍

PHOSPHOPHYLLITE ❤

Is it supposed to be like the serpentini necklace from bvlgari?
