  • Today we're opening up the absolute worst crystal advent calendar. Why is it the worst? Well... you'll see. Although no prize gems were inside, there were lots of surprises and twists and turns along the way.

    The first green one looks to me like green cats eye, which is a manufactured glass material usually used to make beads.

      Yup. Its cats eye glass. I have a bunch of it.

    The green east mausoleum perplexed and amused me too, so I typed “green east mausoleum” into google translate, took the Chinese translation and translated it back to English, and it becomes “green aventurine”! So obviously a lot of translation fail, and Ali Express involved here!

    Considering all the yellow glass, calling this calendar “gold” was a pretty good call 😂

  • @nicolemay5866
    @nicolemay5866 Před rokem +104

    I really want you to break that white one in half and see what it actually is. I got a set off Wish, the “quartz” is literally resin. There are so many bubbles in it 😂

    Hilarious! Very entertaining. Yellow glass advent calendar! It makes the Nat Geo one seem really high end. Thanks!

    Have you thought about tumbling these to see what happens? I know it probably won't end well but…. Chaos science?

    • @moonriserocks
      @moonriserocks  Před rokem +21

      Hell yes! I think the weird green selenite and “white pebble” from this one + a bunch from the Nat Geo calendar I opened might have to go in the tumbler 🌪️

    What a seriously sad collection of "rocks". I am amazed at all the work that went into creating such a crappy product.

  • @stefflcus

    Rock chaos: now available with no actual rocks! This was GREAT. 😅

    It was after getting a “crystal” advent calendar like this a few years ago, that we decided to make and sell our own.

  • @TheJennnq
    @TheJennnq Před 9 měsíci +12

    Yes yes yes! I have gotten this ridiculous calendar. It's so odd!

    • @moonriserocks
      @moonriserocks  Před 9 měsíci +6

      I got a similar one for this year… I don’t know why I’m so excited to open it when it’s probably going to be equally bad but a girl can hope!

    My mom got me a rock advent calender like this last year, it was literally all glass, but i still like it, it has lots of good smooth textures.
    She found a better one for me this year that had all real gemstones which was super cool

    To see if it’s real for a lot of them, I’d think you could just throw it down on a hard surface to see if/how it shatters.

    that's the problem today you think there'd have test kits by now that a person can use , its also the case were a few give a lot sellers a bad name because a lot people assume a lot crystals are fake, i think its about time there should be a world body that you can get your crystal certificated, i do think there should be something done about it, the amount times iv not bought some crystal that are probly real but i thought are fake.

    I know this video is a year old, but I can't help but think this is like people selling beach front property in Arizona.
    "Imagine owning a sandy beach with a view to the bluest water in the world. Watch the sun rise and set from your own home on the beach............."
    Technically, it is a sandy beach and the water is blue and it is your own home - on a lake with a million other people all squished together watching the sun rise and set.
    Yeah. The advent calendar is just like that.

    Yellow & red glass really isn’t painted on. I work with glass every single day. I agree glass but it could be a solid glass. I even have depression glass. Not painted on. There’s solid glass in every color. I guess it depends on quality of glass.
    Also some glass is more expensive than crystals. Depending on the artistry. There’s no artistry here though. Hilarious.

  • @saphire1sababy378

    I bet they just randomly pour stones into it and don’t even decide how many of each
