All About Green Gems | Emeralds, Tourmaline, Tsavorite, and More!

[@mndlessdrwer]

I think peridot may be my favorite of the green gemstones, which is great for me since they're significantly cheaper to source than many of the other options.

[@Topaz_Estrella]

I've always struggled with being an August baby. The peridot I've seen is always my least favorite shade of green ☹️

[@mndlessdrwer]

@@Topaz_Estrella Peridot comes in a variety of greens from dark, almost forest green to a pale yellow-green. So there's probably something out there for you. But don't feel compelled to wear it just because it is the stone arbitrarily assigned to your birth month. If you don't like the appearance of peridot, then just wear what you like. For example: my birth stone is Alexandrite and, while I do think it is a pretty stone, it isn't my favorite. So I won't go out of my way to find arbitrary reasons like birth stone to wear a gemstone. Instead, I'll just wear what I like. Another interesting green gemstone, if you're okay with treated stones, is green topaz. It's made in a similar method to most London blue topaz and has been irradiated to add or intensify the color. I think it is quite lovely.

[@lemmypop1300]

@@Topaz_Estrella You can always pick onyx as your birthstone if you don't like peridot, or, alternatively, disregard the whole notion of birthstones as it's obviously nonsense and just pick any stone you like.

[@HerMajesty5]

I love love love green gems! GREEN gets people to confess and GREEN is the universal color of Love. 💚

[@abduallah9222]

I have green lol for sale

[@victoriarakus5729]

Thank you for these videos. I work at a jewelry store with a huge workshop. My boss gives me envelopes of stones from our collection to practice IDing, to supplement my GIA courses. It's super fun to do, and these videos and your website provide great background information. I always enjoy watching!

[@ryanvanloock9499]

I do love Tsavorite and Peridot. Cannot beat the color for that price point. Host is pretty cute too! 😍

[@angelajakem366]

Absolutely Tsavorite is my favouritel! I fell in love with it about 40 years ago when I first saw it !

[@M.Campbell]

Tsavorite has been my favorite for a long time. Love the rich, darker greens.

[@XxXNightcoreQueenXxX]

Picking just one green, I can't. They are all so pretty.

[@CharlemagneProkopyshyn]

I love chrome diopsode and garnet, emerald and tsavorite. They are all gorgeous hues of green! Love green and blue stones 💙💚

[@chasecarlson4900]

Tourmaline is indeed incredibly amazing. I love the longer facets that preserve more of the crystal! Currently my favorite i own is a gorgeous deep green.

[@Baruch-Hashem]

Peridot, my favorite, particularly those from meteorites. So mysterous when it came from and how old it may be.

[@cafekkoXoX]

Sooo hard to choose a favourite... but wow the green of Chrome Diopside looks lush! 😍💚

[@paveldoslakoski727]

The reflection light, element with colour and natural lighting, ✨️ colour scents structure, and transmitted things like inclusions and colour Beautiful peridot

[@AStri-zg5xc]

I love peridot! Such a fresh shade of green 💚. Also I'd like to mention I prefer this lady over the previous 'gemologist'. The previous girl seemed a bit immature. Thx for a great vid! 👍

[@tommunyon2874]

I had a peridot birthstone ring in my youth. My hand was struck by a baseball and the stone cracked. I lost track of the ring when I left home 53 years ago. Didn't realize one of my favorite snorkeling beaches on Guam had olivine sand.

[@a.kitcat.b]

Green is a beautiful color and I didn't know Peridot was pronounced like that! Its my birthstone and favorite Steven Universe character! Love this video!!

[@jeremybeck6258]

Love these shows. Would have loved for Moldavite to be included. 💎❤️

[@Doxymeister]

Oh yes, I love Moldavite as much for the story behind it, as the color. I haven't seen many "gem-quality" cut Moldavites, but just the rough stones set as pendants/earrings is enough for me.

[@elcuy7518]

Beautiful explanation of how stones get their color!

[@drpk6514]

Tsavorite in such size and colour?! I wish I had it : )

[@bluexwings]

I'm surprised green sapphires didn't make the list! lol For real, though, this was a great video and I loved seeing all of these pieces. ❤️

[@binapaul9975]

I love the depth and breadth of your knowledge Rebecca, but also quite jealous! 👌🥰😊❗

[@Reincarnation111]

Is there a way to contact you? Thanks....

[@cherrypi_b]

Love green emeralds, the blueish, long tourmaline was my favourite. One of my other favs which was not represented is chrysoprase.

[@yessievillanueva1766]

Wow, learned something new. Didn’t know there were so many green gemstones besides emerald and peridot. 😊❤

[@karengarcia8587]

All of those green gemstones are so very pretty.😯😀 It's very fascinating on how they're get their green color and to know where to find them too. It's amazing to see so any green gems.🤔💚💎 Good video and thanks for sharing.🙂👍

[@suzanneschube5424]

You are my favorite host on the show !!!😀😁😀😁😀😁😁😀😁😀😁😀😁😀😁😘😍😉😉😉😉😉thank you...bye for now🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@barbaratreick4784]

Sphene is my favorite green gemstone. But all of of them are beautiful.

[@Pollenoverponds]

Greeeeeeen my beloved. This is my favorite video on your channel. Green part 2 please.

[@_Clloudz_]

Peridot 💚

[@rogerhargreaves2272]

No way can I pick one of those green gemstones as my favourite. I did like the Peridot though as it’s my birthstone. My Peridot has two Lilly pad inclusions. Great production, thank you.

[@dewdrawps]

i love having peridot as a birthstone! never been prouder!

[@AStri-zg5xc]

I was born in Dec and I love my birthstones.....but peridot is FABULOUS 👌 and I'd be thrilled with it as a birthstone if it was mine 😁

[@milesnn]

Awesome video such beautiful green, love the excitement from you, fantastic knowledge you shared . Such a variety of green stones thank you. Purple

[@bobmachine1253]

Can we have an episode for yellow gems? They seem to be really underrated

[@gems]

Good idea!

[@thomasmcgovern-vc3ry]

Love these greens! Thankyou!

[@paolocruz7917]

I noticed something as I watch something about gemstones: stones with names starts with "chryso-" is always green or has green color to it like chrysoberyl, chrysolite, chrysoprase, and chrysocolla.

[@AlH-z2x]

You can't miss the top tier green jadeite :) I know it can be way more expensive than any of those in the video

[@shahroopjalal8595]

Right. Jadite Jade.

[@JewelsoftheTrade]

Love me some jadeite! I’ve been told looking at the color green is very calming to the nervous system. Might be why green gems are always my favorite!

[@KrisJenner2528]

Tsavorite, is my favorite.

[@BKMANN123]

You guys should do a video on different types of agate !

[@LamanKnight]

Green is easily my second-favourite colour (closely following purple, which you've already covered, thank you!), so I love looking at these stones. It's hard to pick a favourite among them. But I did have a thought while I watched this video. Since my eyes are green, I've been trying to determine which of these gemstones most closely resembles that colour. (Just in case I ever want a gemstone that matches my eyes, for some reason.) Now, it turns out that humans only ever appear to have blue or green eyes because of a light-scattering effect that takes place inside your eye. Thus, different lighting conditions can change your irises' appearance drastically, making it harder to determine what shade your eye colour truly is. Fortunately for me, I have a lamp that gives off bright, cool white light, which I think is the same kind of light used to clearly show off a gemstone's true colour. So, using that for comparison... I think the matching stone I'd want is peridot or idocrase, depending on the exact specimen. I guess it's nice to keep that in the back of my mind now. Thank you for showing all of these today.

[@abduallah9222]

I hAve it

[@Alpha13Wolf]

That idocrase was shockingly vivid very highlighter yellow. But there were plenty of beautiful greens a perfect display of the range of greens gems can be.

[@Lilabsolue]

I'm wearing Moldavite and green Tourmaline right now. I LOVE green gems ❤

[@carolynpalacios4805]

Omg, honey… what are you doing…. I can’t even pay attention to the video, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY GLOWING!!!! 😳😲👏🏻❤️

[@suomi5454]

I dont know what shes doing but id like her to pass me some of the green weed, pills, and, lean shes sippin on 🤪

[@noreenmccarthy4956]

This is speaking to my geek heart!! I feel like I'm listening to a warm and beautiful Sheldon Cooper, in fact, the team that puts together this channel's information packed videos could have been technical writers for The Big Bang Theory, LOL!

[@CaptainMyCaptain33]

Can’t believe you didn’t cover Hiddenite / green Afghan Kunzite. Ugh. It’s seriously so so sooooo pretty. Talk about a cheap alternative to an expensive emerald. They are absolutely beautiful and one of my favorites stones to have cut. Gotta cover Kunzite and its variety of colors. 💎

[@spaceshot5289]

I love this show !!!

[@don_compo]

Moldavite is my favorite & peridot because its my birthstone 😍

[@theillestKP]

Greenis the color is life, health, & growth

[@sherrizanoli1398]

Love Demantoid garnet, chrome tourmaline and emeralds

[@KrosanBeast315]

Peridot can also display Chatoyancy, but it is rare.

[@kittykidder409]

You should do a series showcasing different gems based on their color

[@TheMellowgirl]

Tsavorite hands down

[@Watchingtowatch4036]

Emerald my favorite and Bstone

[@juntoemisturado1]

Amo estas gemas ❤️🇧🇷

[@sylmaron5859]

I have also a Peridot crystal with needles. I've read they only come from the Nanga Parbat region in Pakistan. I wonder what the needles consist of though.

[@shadesofjade]

What about Nepherite and Jadeite?

[@aleta5873]

A big fat green tourmaline, raw.....can't help it. Love um.

[@Areoxo_]

favorite green stone is chrome tourmaline

[@cemdemir3396cehim]

thanks for your precious shootings

[@swetashetty941]

Peridot 💃no 1 Love the shades of tourmaline..especially how close to.perfect they come in their natural form ..and the dual colour ones ..so i love watermelon tourmaline green red combo Amazing how for true lovers of gemstones ..Emerald is not the most popular green stone

[@shrapmetal]

Emerald sets the standard for the most desirable color I think, most of the other stones are most valuable the closer they are to the top emerald color. Tsavorite for example actually have more pure green color, but the most valuable color has a bluish green hue to mimic emeralds.

[@rugabaemmanuel2688]

Thank u...for the presentation..A hv Queation

[@SequoiaElisabeth]

I have a picture of the Emerald that was mined in Hiddenite, NC. The largest ever from USA. I wish I could post it here. Go look it up, totally amazing!

[@nikolacamucheto]

I love green color too

[@torquayfireescapes2117]

So at wgat carat does tsavorite overtake emerald

[@jstralis7277]

I ❤️ Tsavorite 🥰💎

[@KD21.]

You didn't mention sapphire

[@justimagine2403]

Tsavorite. Yup

[@baronesselsavonfreytag-lor1134]

I like the bluish green 💚 I love green onyx.

[@christiantorrens7267]

My favorite green gems are the emeralds and the peridots I wish I can see a jewelry with those 2 combinations of greens I also like green tourmaline

[@Mamulel]

Just a quick question. Where do you get gems for your videos. Sorry if this question is annoying.

[@glens1975]

love this!!!

[@Jackaroo.]

This lady loves gems.

[@namritannbung6412]

Very nice and interesting video.

[@madicrane9879]

Do you have any videos on chrysoprase?

[@slatervictoroff7887]

Beautiful tsavorites. You are correct that they're the best though :) My wedding ring is tsavorite. What's the green gem in the ring you're wearing? It looks like a tsavorite, but really hard to tell with the distance.

[@Southernbluejeangrammy]

I choose pink gemstones for next show.

[@gems]

Done! kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3bTlZiPm7F6bMU

[@St.Linguini_of_Pesto]

Green is one of my 3 favorite colors.. orange & purple are my other 2. I was born in May, so emerald is my birthstone. [Sidenote: favorite absence of light = black; favorite metal = copper.. just sayin'.]

[@rugabaemmanuel2688]

I hv a gemstone..but do not know we're it falls en how mch it's worth..plz could u help..

[@serendebitehitamrlshorts3899]

very nice

[@sadaminimanthilaka5269]

How meny price for one carat?

[@faribaghanbari9823]

Hi. I have a stone. And cannot distinguish it. Please help me

[@damonwidick9359]

What's with the trash/bubbles in the stones? That normal or a sign of artificial?

[@gems]

Most natural gems are not going to look clean inside under careful observation. Most have inclusion of some kind, where it's a solid material or a liquid or a gas. Very round bubbles may be a sign of a type of glass, but be careful and rely on someone with a well-trained eye to distinguish these.

[@donniesnyman2517]

Peridot such a beautiful colour. Whats the hardness of peridot

[@gems]

6.5 - 7!

[@LostButHere]

Green And Purple Are The Best Colors

[@ryanhobeck6953]

How can I get in touch with you and show you some stons I've found. I'm really not very well ducted on them and I think you could probably help identify and possibly sell some of them

[@gaminganimators7000]

I like gems

[@francisilva4112]

I would love to hear what you guys have to say about the Vivianite

[@tenuse4138]

Can you show me the difference between the appetite and the peridot

[@saundrayork767]

Please do a show on Moldavite!

[@analilia210]

I just love this chanel, I will love to learn about teal and aquamarine natural stones, I have a few and is hard to know, and also I would love to know about blue stones like angelite, blue lace agate and other stones in that color category, Thank you so much

[@Sister_Molly-u3v]

Green spodumene, prasiolite and hiddenite also green. But pastel green

[@KrosanBeast315]

2:50 According to the G.I.A. Colored Stones Textbook, the exact identity of the Horsetail Inclusions remains unknown.

[@kalimantangemstone]

Good video

[@sproutingresilience4787]

I like the diopside or demantoid the best

[@laquerisma]

Tsavorite is my favourite. Emeralds are next.

[@chimmylights7323]

I love green as well! Have you heard of green moonstone?

[@lnicholson4470]

Please show all the gems together so we can see the difference in colour and lustre overall

[@gems]

Good idea!

[@gbvibeso2018]

[@michellethompson5638]

Would of thought you add green sapphires

[@johnc.hammersticks]

I mine chrysoberyl so I've been hoping for 20 years to find a vanadium chrysoberyl.

[@volpegregori5348]

[@couturestalker8606]

Moldovite is my favorite green, but I looooove tsavorite

[@RRR-CVNV]
