Birthstone For April: Diamond💎

The most popular birthstones is the diamond and April born babies are lucky to have the most beautiful, most valuable & rarest gem which is the diamond. Diamond is the hardest substance on Earth but only moderately tough and only a diamond can cut a diamond but may shatter upon impact.

The most popular diamonds are the white diamonds which are mostly slightly tinted brown and yellow and absolutely colorless diamonds are very rare. 

Diamonds with natural colors except brown are extremely rare like opalescent white, grey, black highly saturated yellows, pink, blue, green, purple, red, violet & orange!

However brown diamonds gets more rare & valuable if it have a rare overtone or tint such as yellowish brown, yellow brown, pinkish brown, pink brown, orangy brown, orange brown, reddish brown & red brown!

The most expensive natural color diamond ever sold is a blue diamond that sells for $4 million dollars per carat and blue diamond is not even the rarest color!

According to GIA (Gemological Institute of America) pure orange diamonds is probably diamond's rarest color.

The Orange
Weighing at 14.82 carats of pure fancy vivid orange color and VS clarity was sold by Christie's last November 2013 for an astronomical $35.5 million dollars!💸
Or $2.4 million dollars per carat! 

 Can't afford that but I have a smaller version of such rarity that I bought from Leibish & Co. last July 2017!

But of course not everyone could afford it but I'm sure anyone can afford this!

Everybody should own a diamond coz in my case they make me feel special and happy like my pussycats!😻

And I Have A Perfect Song For This!🎼🎸🎧

November Traditional Birthstone: Imperial Topaz

Image
T opaz is the traditional birthstone for November & it is one of the most popular gem varieties. Although topaz comes in all the colors of the rainbow from one of my personal favorite the very affordable blue topaz which is considered a semi-precious stone  to the very rare imperial topaz varieties considered as precious stones that comes in many different shades of colors except blue & topaz are durable enough to be worn on rings with a hardness of 8 on the Mohs Scale of Hardness. However only a yellow to golden yellow to orange varieties are known as the true birthstone for November. The jewelty industry recently added semi-precious stone Citrine as part of the November birthstone but it has no magical powers to November babies. Topaz comes in many different parts of the world but the finest imperial topaz tends to be exclusively found in fewer places like Russia & Brazil. Alot people confused topaz with citrine and they do have an uncanny similarity e

Practical Materialism💸

Am I Materialistic? That's a wonderful question ladies & gentlemen! Despite my recent aquisition of this extremely rare vivid orange diamond from Leibish & Co. I don't think I am materialistic  because materialistic people only care the most about expensive things and buying them for the sake of their image. Like people who buys a overpriced luxury leather goods or branded items like Havaiinas rubber flip flops over regular rubber flip flops or iPhones versus regular smartphones which work pretty much desame and you still can't fuck both, or people who only takes care of imported expensive breed of dogs or cats and totally avoid regular ordinary pets or those who only wear branded clothes and underwear like Victoria's Secret lingeries which people would never see anyway. These idiots are the real materialistic because they are concerned of their image! They buy unecessary things or spend their money to feed their bruised & fake egos and then show them

Lost Ancient Philippine Goldsmith Technique

Last June  I blogged  about the lost ancient goldsmithing technique of ancient filipinos that no modern jewelers could replicate that are being displayed at The Bangko Sentral Ng Pilipinas Museum and Ayala Museum in Makati.  Today there is a revival of that lost jewelry making technique but no matter how hard modern jewelers tried to replicate the old ways of jewelry making they cannot copy an exact replica coz they've been missing something that we no longer have in modern times and I have this feeling that the ancient filipino goldsmiths are using ancient alien technology to make elaborate jewelries.  The granulation technique of the ancient filipino jewelries is the best in the history of mankind! Even better than the Etruscans. The tiny well rounded symmetrical granules must have been made by some laser and anti gravity thingy of some sort of  lost ancient alien technology. The fact that the ancient designs could not be totally copied by even he best of modern
