AIGS Beginners' Guide to Ruby, Teaser
edu.aigsthailand.com/courses/beginners-guide-ruby/ref/ruigalopim
I've joined AIGS, the Asian Institute of Gemological Sciences, in this short 2h video basic course on ruby. Click the link and enjoy the free classes made available specially for you.
Summary
Understanding gemstones can be a rewarding experience, especially if that knowledge is shared in simple language and in a truly passionate fashion. In this new program, AIGS and Rui Galopim de Carvalho will take you through a series of short, exciting videos introducing you to the world of ruby.
The learning outcomes and expectations are simple and cover the main aspects of ruby as a gemstone, from basic mineralogy, symbology and terminology, to its history as a gem, not forgetting the role of spinel, main occurrences, the most relevant quality factors, treatments, synthetics and care recommendations.
This program does not substitute for the more technical and advanced gemological courses, but it will surely give you a broader and passionate understanding of ruby as a highly desirable gemological product with a significant historical and cultural heritage.

Great video, very educational, just little correction on the historical part: Slovakia was the part of Hungary for 900 years, not only during the Austro-Hungarian Empire
What about nephrite jade? Is is also an aglomerate of different minerals beside nephrite? If not is it than considered more 'pure' than fei cui?
Vincent Pardieu the embodiment of Field Gemmology. Amazing knowledge, great professional. Thanks for everything.
Hi Rui,How do I get connected with you ? Thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you very much for this video! It's sooo interesting! 🙏❤
So most important information about Brazil diamond
Portugal really is a 💎of a country! It has been way too long since I have been there! Greetings from Finland! 💙🤍 Apropos, countries, and by extension, languages: in Finnish, I think "purple" would be considered a reddish shade of violet. So, "violet" would be the main category, and "purple" a subcategory? But I am absolutely no expert.
Elizabeth Taylor's poodle was lucky that the gem in question was a pearl and not a diamond. ;)
"They didn't care much about platinum." Autsch! ;)
As a GG from Michigan USA...I am on board with this as it is very clear and concise that the name Fei Cui is a broader term that allows for the inclusion of all pyroxenes that make up what we have known as "Jadeite". I for one am going to adopt the term and hope to educate others.
Wonderful! Thank you. I'm so happy to discover your channal :)
21:17 It isn`t true that chrysoprase was first time founded in Australia. Oooh, geologists... Look at this: file:///C:/Users/TRACE/Downloads/Chrysoprase_history_and_present.pdf It`s easy to found. You said that you love chrysoprase. As geologist you should know a bit more about it. Shame on.
brilliant as usual, Rui! thank you so much
For my (pathetic in chemistry) own brain, this webinar is beyond educational, because it’s fascinating. Thank you for explaining this with intelligent seriousness the subject demands, but also in a fashion that lay ppl and newbies can comprehend. You’re greatly appreciated!
Ruidid an excellent job explaining the issue of precious coral Bravo!
When you're not from Peru, take me and we will go. 😅😂
Hi Rui If you happen to visit to Sacramento area pls visit to me. I started jadeite business when I was 15 in Yangon and went to Hpakant at the age of 19 and stayed there for 8 years. I am now 56 and living in U.S since 2000. I’m still in trade although I licdd we must of the time in U.S. So like to meet you in person if you find time.
I love red coral accesories!🙏💗
She's wonder .

olá, sou um apaixonado pela história de Portugal a todos os níveis, desde arte, literatura até mesmo ao desenvolvimento militar. Já sigo atentamente a sua página de Instagram desde o ano passado e gosto muito das suas análises e publicações. Mas existe uma questão que me intriga, o porquê de não aparecerem peças referentes a el Rey D.João V será por falta de exposição ou pelo facto de não terem sobrevivido ao terramoto?
Superb presentation. One of the best I've seen in a long time. Thank you Edward, Rui and Ed!
I inherited a one meter strand of individually knotted red coral branches of various sizes. I have been searching for its origin and I believe it to be Mediterranean about a 1900. Thank you so much.
That is wonderful, thank you very much for sharing
Good information .Thank you both .
You’re most welcome 🙏🏻
Thanks for the discussion. About 1980 I visited Taiwan a few times and came across a store selling carving made of nephrite Jade. I bought some because in 1980 the carvings were pretty reasonably priced. I'm sort of a private collector of semi-precious gemstones. The way I tell Nephrite from Jadeite is with a specific gravity test. Nephrite being slightly less than Jadeite when tested for specific gravity. In hardness they are hard to tell apart. Nephrite Jade is also somewhat translucent in thinner areas of the material, but not as much as Jadeite. (in my collection anyway)I also have a few small items made of Jadeite. I found some green stones in a river in Japan many years ago that I believe to be Jadeite, but very much occluded with some white mineral mixed within. For the longest time I carried one of these stones for luck with mixed results.
Thank you very much for sharing such a personal perspective
I'm curious why a steel mortise and pestle would be needed to create diamond dust ? And not one out of a stone like diorite etc
That is a very interesting question for the invited speaker. You may reach Jack Ogden via the Society of Jewellery Historians : www.societyofjewelleryhistorians.ac.uk
The marks at 5:38 look very similar to marks from tube drills holes in stone.

a mi me costo conseguír un rubí burmés de casi de 4.65 carts sangre de pichon después. llego otro de casi 10 cartas después busqué más sangre de pichon de otros lugares. son unas bellezas ya los examiné y son naturales pero a hora que tengo varios no se donde venderlos y a qué precio podría yo vender
Great sir!

Thank you for your efforts to produce and share this excellent research.
Very much obliged, thanks
I have a asteroid ruby. A big rock.
This have been by far the most informative and detailed discussions about jade! I have always loved Jade, even though we are not Chinese, we have old jade items and jewelry that is from my grandmother. I only recognize real jade based on touch, jade is always cold. Nowadays there are many stimulated jade in the market it is hard to differentiate the originals now. Thank you
Thank you very much for feedback
I have a question I would like to ask. From the lecture we know that Feicui is a multi crystallized compound. I also heard a theory says that the top cleaity Feicui with cold tone light is mainly sigle crystal. One of my friend told me that the theroy can not be true since Feicui has to be multi crystallized. However, based on my knowledge I believe all of Jadelite, omphacite and Kosmocholor can probability get into single crystal form in Lab. As a result, can we really rule out the posibility of a single crystal form of Feicui, for instance single crystal form of Jadeite jade?
Thank you both for your wonderful abilities in making a very complex subject understandable for total novices. You are profoundly gifted teachers.
🙏🙏🙏 thank you so much

Many thanks, could you recommend an English language reference for it please? Very interesting
These are examples of the usage of the term "Fei Cui" in Chinese literatures which can be traced back to 476-221 BC@@RuiGalopimdeCarvalhoFGADGA
Just wondering how this effects value and could these minute distinctions, when it comes to personal preferences, ultimately be used to manipulate the value & market here in US and across the globe?
how do u not have more subs and views i cannot fathom. very good vids
I have a red coral necklace sourced from the Dumagat Tribe here in the Philippines
I'd like to share some photographs
Full of lies there was no Iraq 500 yeas ago nore was a uae, Bahrain the Arab country as all of that was part of persia 90% of everything your guest speaker has said is utter lies and once again there is no Arab gulf and the gulf has a name it is called the PERSIAN GULF !!!!!!
Your map is wrong their is no Arab gulf it is and always will be the Persian gulf the European British took the Persian sea back in the 1749 and renamed it Arab sea we are not giving up our gulf. Start putting some respect on Persian history you show the most respect to your Arab and Chinese guests you should show the same to others as well
Love to see this vlog,so much info in guiding buying a real jade💗
Glad to know it is useful 👍🏼
