Very nice.

Hi Elizabeth do you like that tester better than the one we all have? Because I think sometimes when I’m testing and it’s in 3 lines what the heck is it?? I still have to guess lol

ok im 6minutes in and had to ring in. judging by the only comment here at this time im glad i did. these tools determine the "heat inertia" of a stone and its crucial to follow the correct procedure to get accurate results. ive watched about a dozen review vids and exactly zero were done correctly. first, if there is a color range setting the color must be set before the test is done. uniform and appropriate temp and humidity are also crucial. dont jam the probe against the stone so hard your hand quivers, just firmly press as if using a ball point pen to write a period on plain paper or stylus on a phone keypad and hold steady until a beep or other indicator is given. the tool will indicate the types of stone within the heat inertia range detected factoring in the "resistance" caused by the range of possible causes of the selected color range ie: stone color. the term "range" means just that. like hardness, heat inertia varies slightly within each type and color of stone. a clear "colorless" sapphire for instance can have a slightly different heat inertia than a deeply saturated colored sapphire and that range can coincide with the upper or lower end of similarly colored diamonds, for example. there is a bit of "kentucky windage" regarding the effect of certain colors in certain stones as trace elements, inclusions and "defects" or vacancies in molecular positioning of certain ions all can affect the color of stones. used correctly these tools are essentially infallible. used improperly they are confusing at best. being made in china for the most part dosent help. no or illegible gibberish instructions are the rule rather than the exception. understanding basic heat inertia theory is key. think of it as the speed at which heat is conducted from molecule to molecule in a given stone. now go spend an hour reading into the subject and you will be as "expert"as the layperson can be at using these extremely accurate tools. G.I.A. has the definitive reporting on both the detectors and heat inertia in gemstones itself. now go get those goodwill gem jars and make that definitive youtube content we so desperately need! Besos.

Cool

Lol never heard this one

Hi EK! This tester won’t be helpful to me 😂 beautiful collection of gemstones though ❤

Beautiful 😍

✨️Hi Elizabeth, Thank you for sharing 💛

I have found the occasional older piece that was marked gold, but when tested was clearly a wash or gold plated - so it happens, just like we get pieces marked 925 that are non-responsive to the acid test and don't have any silver, not even plated.

Perfect song (as usual) for these perfect earrings. ❤

I know you're a hippy at heart

That’s a lot of beads and a lot of time .

Nice

Just lovely 😍 😮

Oh I love the Japanese beads mixed with the gemstone beads, wow! Love your ring, such beautiful ancient glass.

Love your ring Elizabeth.

Hi EK, beautiful finds! Love the ss bracelet and ring 😊

That was so much fun, we need to go again soon! 💜you my friend.

Love ring!!!!!❣️

✨️Hi Elizabeth, You found some very nice treasures and such a beautiful ring 🎊🦋🧡

The the music you always use

🍑🍑🍑🍑

Beautiful ❤

It is work of art… it is rare so keep it EK…

🌟Hi Elizabeth, I Love your pendant necklace, it's Really Awesome 👌 Great eye, and Amazing find ✌️🧡

❤

What a great piece.

What do you call this type of pin?

I always love seeing your hauls, you pick up great items! Love that Murano watch. The heart and arrow necklace is Icing brand, believe it’s like a mall store. Oh my gosh that necklace at 7:07 I believe is by the designer Patrice, her jewelry is normally not signed and she used very high quality findings like Czech glass and mostly vintage parts. I have sold her earrings before but never found any necklaces, that’s an amazing piece!

Good Morning Elizabeth! Can’t wait to see what you received! How exciting! 💗

Love the beads on the watch ❤

Hi elizbeth

Beautiful jewelry. And I love the watch!

Great haul Elizabeth!!! Love your finds ! Mindy F

I love that glass disc necklace with the floral theme. Did that one sell?

I love that watch

I love your jewelry finds ❤. I wish we could go thrifting together.

Interesting!

What a great variety of treasurers!

Hi Elizabeth- that sounds like such a fun time at the fair, looks like you got some amazing pieces!! Can’t wait to see what you do with the beads. I love that brooch, reminds me of the Schreiner millefiori ones. The translucent white beads look very much like onyx to me tho I’m not sure. I saw clown faces too in those beads 😂 Those are really great! I honestly can’t tell from looking at them if they are wood or plastic or something . Love the light blue Czech glass! The pressed glass all look yummy like gummy candy 😋 I agree about the lovely speckled being Japanese, love! Yes your orange millefiori beads are Japanese, called Tombo or tonbo meaning dragonfly as the dots look like their eyes. Anything I find with those types of beads sell very quick for me. These were all really nice, thanks for sharing 😊

Hi Elizabeth, love the brooch and all the beads they are beautiful pieces. Thank you for sharing 😊❤

Neat piece!!!

Hi EK love the glass on the brooch and those last two strands of beads…they are so pretty, imagining wearing those as a bracelet ❤

Love the brooch❣️❣️❣️❣️

Great video! I have had the regular presidium for over 3 years now and I am wondering if it is time for a replacement. So I am trying to decide if I should get the gem indicator that you have or another gem tester. This video is helpful!

My fave is the last ring! I Love the Cali lily look!

Thanks for this Elizabeth! I don’t have a gem tester, just one of those diamond testers to see if something is glass/stone/ or diamond. This was really helpful!

Very informative! I like your presidium and that you hold it in the proper position. In all of the unboxings I have watched, no one has ever mentioned that it is made to test clear gemstones. Interesting.

Thanks for dummying this down for us . I think I understand !😊now I’ll watch the rest!
