Unboxing Rough Diamonds | Freeform, Macles & More!

[@gems]

We hope you enjoy checking out Andrew's awesome collection of unique natural diamonds! Which was your favorite?

[@karengarcia8587]

Since you asked, my favorite is Ruff the diamond dog. It should be this channel's mascot.😄💎🐕

[@neggispringfeild]

What is funny is I just bought a natural opal today because it looks just like an old woman's face...it fascinates me when something natural comes from the ground and imitates a natural gemstone.......also I dream of handling hundreds of brilliant cut diamonds

[@lenecoetzee6309]

My favourite is the green diamond

[@abdulmoomin2092]

Yes all is nice please I have a diamond which am selling in bergium but the price I was given is not good so I asked my brother to send to back in Ghana but still looking for a good customer so I can do business with them

[@anniehing6813]

That book for sale I from Sabah Stones collection I have interest in your channel

[@Jackaroo.]

The animal shapes are amazing. They would be perfect for a museum.

[@keithallen5795]

Thats very true.The Museum of Natural History s Gem Hall.Me myself , I like diamonds free.Their loved.And have amazing history's over centuries.

[@ShaneNean]

I’ve found a lava rock 🪨 with gold and colour crystals and diamonds ♦️ in it

[@JewelsoftheTrade]

Rebecca looks SO happy in this video!! I enjoyed seeing her excitement over the diamonds!

[@thirteennumbers6095]

Andrew is brilliant! So interesting and knowledgeable! Host is fantastic as ever ❤️

[@pbjsilverstudio4882]

As a metalsmith/ studio jeweler, I just learned a LOT and I love it!

[@roughdiamondworld6815]

It was such a pleasure! Thank you for watching!!!

[@kokonana4086]

The level of his diamond knowledge is out of this world. It's obvious that he's living and breathing diamonds. Very informative conver.

[@abrenos3744]

That cloudy Diamond that looks like it's glowing light blue is freaking amazing, It should be a piece of jewelry for sure. These videos are always so awesome

[@imari2305]

This is how diamonds should be shown in their natural state; untreated and apreciated for their god given beauty. I didn't know diamonds came in bicolors either Rebecca and every last one was beautiful. My favorites are the salt and pepper and the starburst but the animal shapes wow just amazing!. Thanks Andrew for bringing your wonderful collection and sharing them with us.

[@roughdiamondworld6815]

Thank you for sharing them and the experience with us!!!

[@AwokenEntertainment]

that diamond dog is truly one of a kind! invaluable

[@ingorichter649]

Very cute items, especially the animal shaped conglomerates. I have never seen such fascinating rough diamonds before. Such an octaeder shaped single crystal with interesting "garden" shown here I have at about 1 ct in my gemstone collection. Thanks for sharing!

[@cathyerley3057]

Now that was just too cool, had no idea diamonds could be so unique.

[@silvergirl7810]

What a FANTASTIC video!! These were so gorgeous and it shows how special ALL diamonds are! I’m so glad I found this- can’t wait to purchase the book for my students- it goes to show there just isn’t a bad purchase with any diamond- it’s always an investment for so many reasons- personal and financial!! ❤️ 💎

[@roughdiamondworld6815]

Thank you for your beautiful comments!!! Ruff is excited to get into the classroom himself in book 2, currently being written!!!

[@wasd____]

For the average person, a diamond is a terrible purchase as an investment. No jeweler will buy it back for anything _close_ to what you pay as a retail purchaser. The commercial gem diamond world wants diamonds to be essentially disposable; once purchased at a high retail price, the market is set up so they have little resale value. Unless you're a connected dealer who can get them at wholesale and flip them, you buy a diamond for sentimental reasons, not investment reasons, and expect to lose essentially all the monetary value you put into the purchase. Period.

[@hathama1088]

Some beautiful stones in that collection. It's awesome that he wants to put them in a museum!

[@Muxoll-Rocks]

You guys just made me love diamonds again, thank U

[@springedge_diamondsoninsta8715]

Hey 👆👆👆 look up the handle above sells and delivers 💎 at any location🌎✈️ dude is real and legit 💯

[@John081590]

I have been more interested in colored gemstones, but seeing these kinds of diamonds are interesting the starburst and the animal collection is outstanding ! And I do agree, though they have less fire, I prefer the old cuts of diamonds.

[@disideratum]

I hope this video might inspire lapidary artisans to incorporate unique diamonds like those into their works and in turn create more of a commercial demand. There have probably been so many unusual but gorgeous diamonds like those discarded for not being "commercially viable". Takes the phrase "diamond in the rough" to a whole new level! Btw, that starburst octohedron looks like a holographic recording of the birth of the universe. The Big Bang Diamond🎆

[@lc4n333]

At least salt and pepper diamond now marketed as something unique and modern compare to "traditional" briliant white diamond.

[@hauntedshadowslegacy2826]

Yo, agreed. Rough diamonds are super cool. Putting one of those on a ring would be even better than the same old shapes on the same old bands.

[@susanrutman5604]

What a great history and sampling of forms of diamonds!

[@warren2457]

Shocking and amzing content sir!

[@janneliekekooistra1069]

I was looking for comments about rough the Diamond dog, when i realised this video was just posted. Thank you for this very intresting and informative vid!

[@milanopiano]

Woooooow the bi-colour and the starburst(?)!! Never knew that diamonds could do that. I have been sleeping on diamonds, these are SO cool!

I love minerals that looks like animals. I have an agate that looks like a mouse, another that looks like a toucan, and a piece of petrified wood that looks like a wolf head.

Thank you Rebecca for sharing such amazing collection ☺️

[@Ruggedystim]

I would totally love to hang with this guy, seems like he knows his stuff, but down to earth. Great video

[@hshwhitten]

I’m fascinated by this episode.

[@lindasaav7364]

Rough diamonds are by far the coolest! But when it comes to cut ones I like the more rustic ones, like old mine cuts and especially if done to salt and pepper diamonds 👌🏼

[@Nicht-die-Mama]

Concerning cuteness nobody can beat Rebecca! 🥰

[@ruhituranminergem]

Beautiful rough diamonds 💎

[@roughdiamondworld6815]

Thank you!!!

[@PaletteBegonia]

I’ve never really taken the time too appreciate rough diamonds, but those squared formations are truly cool too look at , using those would look super interesting in jewellery I think but really there were some crazy looking specimens in this one ! Big Win from the guest 🔥

[@roughdiamondworld6815]

Thank you! I highly recommend you checking out Todd Reed and his jewelry designs. He made rough diamonds in modern jewelry popular even before Debeers jumped on board!!!

[@luisalbertoangeldonescossi9324]

Andrew s,you rock papa!!!love you collection, i was in the peruvian deser 3 years ago and i found some...but dientes know how to look for or reconize a rough Diamond looks like!👍👍👍👌🇵🇪

[@keithallen5795]

My favorite is the yellow, orange russian.And I might cut a single face (table) to view color, but no or very small side facets.Around as a frame.Thats very fancy "unique"!

A billion years olde! Wow!!!👍

[@lenecoetzee6309]

Thank you that was very interesting My favourite is the green diamond

[@GREEKEXPLORERS]

Thank you for sharing!!

[@davidtyndall3786]

A true blessing. Both do enjoyable but also adorable. They could be a thing. Some chemistry there. I have a ruff the free standing picture jasper dog. 3 months ago I tried cleaving off a large chunk. First shard. Looks veri similar to rough. It’s paper thin 11 carats. And sits upright like a beautiful dog and looks like Leia. My best friend. A doggy.

[@karengarcia8587]

Whoa, all these diamonds are very beautiful in their rough natural forms.😃🤩🤍💎 I never knew they're many types of diamonds and it's fascinating to know the facts of each one.🤔 I think they look unique looking when they're not cut.🪨⛏ I like them but my favorite is Ruff the diamond dog.💎🐕 It's so cute even there's a book about these gem animals too.😊📘 Plus diamond is mine and my cousin's birthstone.👭🥳🤍💎🎂 Which is this weekend. Thanks for showing us this collection and good video.👨‍🏫💎

A NEW HOST! I can watch this!

[@cheryljurk7473]

I have some diamonds i found in a farm field in michigan when i was walking my dog and we were looking for some deer tracks. They were sooo beautiful, so i took them back and cleaned them up. I took them up to a local jeweler to have them tested. I was so excited when she tested several very large diamonds and she said they were real diamonds. I did some research and found out that michigan had a lot of coal mines and some known kimberlite pipes as well. I looked a little deeper, and found out that Michigan also had volcanic activity. So the chances of finding them here are great. There are many kimberlight rocks all around there too. I also found a two piece meteorite in the same field. Please Let me know if u may know anyone who may like to purchase some. GIA charges per carat and i really don't have that kind of money right now. Thanks, Cheryl

[@pumpkindiamond994]

8:28 half of it looks like a deep orange. When cut and polished it could yield a fancy vivid orange or fancy vivid yellowish orange diamond that weighs 2 carats more or less. It is worthy to be cut & polished! But I bet the reason why they didn't polished it is because they can predict that the final outcome would be an orange diamond with brown overtones. Without that brown overtones they will surely cut it!
