Luxury brands only change their strategies for the super rich...The price increases of Fendi, LV, Givenchy and the like are nonsense. Therefore, those ordinary rich people or middle- and upper-class people who can really afford it need to think twice before buying it. If they are just looking to save face, they will buy from kislux .

From 625 carat to 198 carat? Thats a lot of trimming

wow. never seen this process and always wondered how do these gems get these shapes. very very talented amazing precision

Very beautiful work you done. Thank you.

Just outstanding 👍

625 carats? Think 90.7 carats equals 1 pound. 625 carats divided by 90.7 carats is 6.9 pounds. Either my math is off or opal is much more dense than iron because I'm thinking of iron dumbbells compared to that stone 😅

I don't understand, Sir. Why so cheep??

Beautifully cut, but these opals are nowhere near as beautiful as the Australian black opals.

Absolutely stunning polish!

what marvels me the most is , they are able to see the stone and whats its most effect will be, cutting out all impuritys and form it without loosing much of the stone itself, masterwork...

Masih kala dengan batu kalimaya banten

How much this gem worth?

This is lovely! I’ve got to admit, I adore Opals, but, I love Australian Opals! IMO, the Australian opals are so much…. more lol!

Where do you buy rough gems?! Everywhere I look on the internet they all seem either scams or overpriced!

I can look at this stone all day

Roughly how much is it how much would this cost

😮KRYPTONITE😮

Unheated 😊

OMG!!! That stone looks like a Galaxy in your hand.

Thank you for idia pulishing CD

Immaculate job! You are incredible! I never saw such beautiful colors in my life!

When LuAg is not enough

You cut these?

Amazing. You're definitely talented in your craft. Blows my mind what you're capable of producing.

70yr old prospector here Love your videos beautiful work. I've been gold prospecting, metal detecting and rockhounding for many many years. Every time I'm cutting, faceting or drilling I ALWAYS wear an mask. Rock an gem dust will travel in air and water. Breathing rock dust is not good for you. You are one very very talented individual my friend. KEEP ON ROCKIN 😊

But that was a beautiful color 😢❤

This is radioactive so I’m gonna put safety stuff on my face (touches the gem with no gloves💀)

Beautiful!

Ooooooo…Beautiful…❤️🙏🏼🤙🏼

😍

He could easily make a ASMR gem cutting series

Sir your work is sooo amazing I've watched so many of your videos on my other account you make these gems look amazing thank you for showing us!!

Wow! Never heard of this before. Out of this world weird and wonderful!

So good！

Than you very much..hope more these kind of educational videos !

Fascinating. Thank you for sharing such an excellent video of that process. Beautiful stone. Where does such a large gem end up?

Biutiful

Looks ok but not in the same class as an Aussie black opal from lightning ridge

I have a gemstone that I would like to have your opinion on.

Not worth $100 in my opinion. Australian opal is way better for $100 that actually looks amazing

That's awesome 👌

Dear Steve, I would watch you on JTV back in the late 90s to early 2000s. I am willing to bet you are likely one of the most knowledgeable and experienced gemologists regarding tanzanite in the United States today. I completely trust your judgement and views regarding this gorgeous and unique gem. I am very skeptical of online anything, but.... you are the exception. I recently purchased my dream piece of jewelry from you and am THRILLED with my purchase. I love my ring! My only remorse is not buying it sooner! That's the gospel truth. Once i am dead and gone, i will be able to leave this ring to my family. I am confudent it will only increase in value as time passes. I fiddled with gems over the years, even owned a 16.2 cushion cut piece of tanzanite which I ended up reselling and still regret doing so. I should have held onto it and let those dollars go. Alas, no changing the past but.... This ring will never leave me until my last breath! THANK YOU STEVE!! AND ALICE for facilitating my purchase. I continue to watch your KZbin shows and frequent your online shop. GORGEOUS jewelry Steve! Truly! Take care buddy!!! Your pal, Hal Clayton

Only problem is, our economy is now so done for that people with masters degrees can't afford a house, so how tf is any average middle class (now poor class) supposed to afford anything except a decent quality flex shaft and dremel 😂😂

Hi is this stone name is?

🇪🇹❤😊😮

it's beautiful, perfect for a paperweight but too large for a piece of jewelry

Hi sir I have one piece of this gemstone

Stunning!!!! I’ve never seen one! 🧡

I hope he gets every penny of it. that is a ton of work. would be curious how a buyer uses such a big stone. necklace I'm guessing? just beautiful workmanship.

I just checked your other posts...you do beautiful work.
