🍉These are the crowning jewels from our winter buying trip come to our Live Sales this Friday and Saturday. You may have seen me post about this stone in the past when we had a few small Tumbleds and Cabs available. Having these very old stock, large free forms are a dream come true. What are they you may ask? They are Transvaal Jade, also known as Hydrogrossular Garnet. They come from Transvaal, S. Africa. We thought we would never see them again after we sold the small Tumbleds, however the Crystal Gods were with us. They were literally dropped in our lap. 16 pieces will be available on our Live Sale this coming weekend. If there is ever something you won’t want to miss, these are them! 🍉🍉❤️💚 We think they look like candied watermelon.

2nd batch of redrawns 

- Friedelite reside in an’ancient diamond colony who was forgotten for eons, her job was to sperimentize on the capability of fusions and forced fusions but she became fashinated about how does gems can fuse with each other and can have their own mind. After an accident (supposedly a suggestion that made her Diamond furious) which bought severe damange on Friedelite’s mind  leaving her face disfigured, she begin to work as a caretaker of failed fusions experiments (which she was thinking as “recreating something entirely new”), trying to give them form and a mind capable of autonomous actions, using spare diamond juice (provided by her diamond oblivious of her works) for this cause she transformed the fusion lab into a reabilitation center.

She is calm and comprensive,being able to destabilize fusions with the sole touch. For the other gems, she is like a savior and a point of inspiration, its hard to make her mad, but when she get mad, she expel a pawerful radiance, so bright that can stop nearby gems on the spot.

Her weapon is a sword made out of flame (which rarely use), is immune to fire, magma and other heat-related substances.

After the event of Future and Yellow Diamond’s new powers, she’s more curious about the repair process of gems and thinking more about how to talk to Yellow about her “experiments”.

- Crocoite (crocoite original design by @nrwynter ) work as Friedelite’s bodyguard, and adviser. She mostly shy but get the job done, neutralizing opponents and administrate the center under Friedelite’s guide.

 The two of them serve Red Diamond (idea work in progress)

- Hydrogrossular Garnet’s one of the work of Friedelite of giving forced fusions a mind on their own and to be complete (well mostly). Being made from half pieces of other garnets and a semi-whole pieces of pearls, she is confused most of the time and being completly oblivious about the memories of her componets pieces,but she try her best to live as a “normal” gem.

Hydrogrossular, the fusion of my Amber and @chromarrays ‘s Pyromorphite.

Pyro and Amber would probably be at least acquaintances, maybe even friends. I chose Hydrogrossular because it was an interesting olive-green gem with patterns that reminded me of Amber’s. The resulting fusion definitely looks a lot like both their components, pretty much equally.

Their weapon is a trident, and since they can be a bit clumsy, they’re not the best with it. 

They’re very nervous, timid, and shy. They’re so uncertain of what they’re doing, they often hesitate for a long while before making a move. They’d probably be considered a ‘good guy’, if they just decided to strike sooner. They have a strong sense of justice, despite their delayed reactions. 

Hope you like them!

I made Garnet palette swaps! Which one do you like? 

Notes: I omitted uvarovite, which is rarely made into gems. Mali is a mixture of grossular & andradite, and rhodolite is a mixture of pyrope & almandite.

Hydrogrossulars or Transvaal Jade, is a variety of grossular garnets that contains hydroxyl (OH).

[handsofspirit]

Extremely rare Hydrogrossular Garnet, also know as Transvaal Jade which more refers to the fact they are from Transvaal, South Africa and they use Jade interchangeably with stone. The pink is the rarest color. All are translucent. Videos of each are in our story. These are probably the last of this material we will have. This has not been producing for many many years. The last time we saw Hydrogrossular Garnet was 2014 when we purchased a few old sock pieces that were stolen by a cutter and was eventually retrieved by the original owners. While barrel diving this past year, I just happened to see this bag of old stock cabochons and snatched then as quickly as possible, as I knew I would probably never see them again! Needless to say, I was ecstatic. This stone can help treat dysfunction due to trauma. - - - #transvaaljade #hydrogrossular #hydrogrossulargarnet #rareminerals #rarecabochons #cabochonsforsale #cabochons #cabs #cabochon #translucent #grossular #grossularite #wirewrapping #wirewrap #crystals #crystal #crystalhealer #healingtools #crystalcommunity #boulder #handsofspirit (at Hands of Spirit Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzYx5zMhX7G/?igshid=yr1xzhkp76wm

My gems roles part 1

Diamonds - the matriarchal body of Gem leaders.

Cubic zirconias - substitutes for the diamonds that follow the diamonds duties while they are away, other zirconias act as generals or Colonie owners

Moissanite - gems who act as governors of groups of colonies or star systems for the diamonds, each color is given special elemental powers

Herkimer diamonds - special guards that are the last line of defense for the diamonds, they are filled with essence giving them the diamonds abilities

Emerald - They are captains of spaceship fleets, and lead many ships into space wars.

      -      trapiche emerald - fleet leaders that act more hostile and act more like pirates and generals

Garnet - Command fleets and colonies since the diamonds can’t always spectate.

Almandine: Owners of science-based colonies and large scientific areas. 

Pyrope: Owners and governors of Noble areas and residential habitats. 

Rhodolite: They manage the judicial system, deciding rules and such, they function much like Zircons, but get the final say in any rule. 

Spessartine: Garnets that specifically own planets during early colonization, before anyone can claim any land. 

Andradite: A blanket term for Garnets that govern working-class planets and working-class areas. It has a few subclasses which include: 

Demantoid: Demantoids govern the work of any public service Gems, and will usually create timetables or be in charge of managing jobs. 

Melanite: Melanites govern any public or private punishments because Nobles will oftentimes be exempt from punishment if they do something bad. They will manage the prisons and execution schedules. 

Topazolite: Topazolites govern the storage of working-class Gems, determining when a Gem is needed and when one is not, will typically work alongside a Demantoid.

Hessonite: Hessonites are usually military commanders and general offensive Gem leaders. They can control fleets the size of planets and facets, although will also control planets that are designed to either be weapons or house them.

Six Types of Garnet:

Almandine:

Almandine is the most common Garnet. Magnesium occurs within it rather than the iron that is found within pyropes. Almandine range in color from dark red to black, often being cut with a convex face.

Pyrope:

Pyrope is the only member of the Garnet family to always display a red coloration when rough. Pyrope is also noted for its transparency and frequent lack of flaws or inclusions. The origin of most pyrope is in ultramafic rocks, typically peridotite from the mantle. Pyrope has two varieties, rhodolite and malaia. Rhodolite is the purple variety of pyrope while the malaia is the red-orange variety.

Spessartine:

Spessartine is an orange to red form of Garnet. It occurs most often in granite pegmatite and allied rock types. Spessartine, like the other Garnets, occurs as a blend with other species.  

Andradite:

Andradite is a calcium-iron Garnet and has a large range of coloration. It can be red, yellow, brown, green or black. It is known as the most lustrous of Garnets and has several varieties. Melanite is the lustrous, opaque black or very dark red variety. Demantoid is the olive-green to emerald-green variety. And Topazolite is the yellow to brownish-yellow variety of Andradite.

Grossular:

Grossular Garnet is the most varicolored of the Garnets. Pure Grossular is colorless, and its wide range of colors is caused by various impurities. Hessonite is an orange to orange-brown variety, Hydrogrossular is a green, pink, grayish-white to bluish variety, chrome grossular is a green variety of grossular. Tsavorite is a dark green variety, while Mali is a yellow-green variety that has a slight overlap in the grossular-andradite series.

Uvarovite:

Uvarovite is the rarest of the familiar Garnets and is hardly ever used as a gem. It is a calcium chromium Garnet with a unique deep chrome-green. It is the only Garnet that comes in one color.
