Translucent and opaque stones...



The reason I say that is the way they make me feel. While I like how faceted stones look, apart from appearance and obvious beauty, I don''t really feel "connected" to them. Maybe it''s a cultural thing, maybe it''s something to do with me connecting gemstones with legends and stories, but when I hold some sort of a opaque/translucent material, I''m much more under the influence of emotions, than when I see faceted stones. They don''t even need to be fashioned if you ask me, and they''ll still make me wonder some things and spark my imagination. Like how a tree sap fell on the ground God knows where some tens of millions of years ago and now I hold that same piece of nature in the form of an amber! Or how a white piece of rock that, at a glance, almost looks like chalk can all of a sudden start showing all kinds of colors twinkling from within (opal). Or how sea creatures give us corals and pearls. Or how that tiger''s eye really does remind you of a tiger''s eye, not to mention having your own piece of moonlight in your hand by holding a moonstone - those are the things that drew me to gemstones in the first place. And while many of them will never be thought of as the most beautiful gems in the world, to me they are more magical and wondrous than so many coveted and sought after pieces.

Well, that''s a bit of my view on the subject. Sometimes I go a bit gah-gah when writing about my fascination with gems - don''t hold it against me

Same as Chrono, I love them all, cause they all have a certain charm and appeal. In fact, I somehow feel that cabs and phenomena stones are more of gemstones than faceted materials, in my personal opinion.The reason I say that is the way they make me feel.
