Unisex 500+ Carats Loose Mixed Gems Wholesale Lot. Natural Faceted Semi Precious Gemstones. Kantaincorporation Loose Gemstone

Firstly, if you believe you'll be getting 500+ carats of perfect stones for under $30 please deflate your helium balloon and join us back on Earth. These may be real stone, however many are color or heat treated. A majority of mine had misshapen cuts, improper crowns, chips, or inclusions. Many of the TD readings didn't match up with all-natural stones... probably because of the leaded glass used to stabalize the stone's massive flaws - which is done frequently by mainstream jewelers. There were a tiny few that weren't finished or had spherical bubbles from being injected during the color process. I think these stones are used for cutting classes by jewelry students to hone their skills. Despite all of that, there are quite a few perfect stones. If you're a novice jeweler, crafter, or reseller you'll probably make your money back 500 fold. I've been into gems for over 40 years and plan on buying these multiple times in the future. This is a great way to learn about gemstones while possessing a wide array of them.

These are junk. I got my initial order and most of the stones where broken & chipped, or just some irregular shapes that can't even be used. They are mostly glass, some synthetic, but I found a few natural. So I sent a message to the seller about my concerns. So he says They are shipping out some new ones to replace the damaged and unusable. I got the first batch in just a few days. The second took over 3 weeks. To only get a bunch of broken, chipped, & irregular unusable crap. The dublets are ugly, glued 2 glass pieces together and sanded down the sides where they are an ugly Grey. I didnt even find 1 real stone in the second batch. Even though their ad clearly says "Natural Stones." I was so angry, j threw them and they went all over my warehouse. I will not be buying any other products from these folks. I hope Amazon sees them as the fraudsters they are and shut them down.

These are Sparkly, real sparkly to quote a Raven friend. So much dazzle for so little money. This parcel brings me back to the days when you got what you paid for. Larger parcels usually have some larger stones. This was no exception. I'm still sorting by gem type. All that red, and not one Garnet or Ruby, but there are some AMAZING spinels and one that I have the RI on but can't find it in my books or online. Brilliant red like a ruby. the RI is below all corundum, but much higher than any glass...Sorry, got caught up in it. This will not disappoint, unless you're looking for purple or green stones. This parcel is going to keep me busy designing for a long time to come. What a variety of deep blue and red stones with a nice dusing of lighter shades of both.

Worst "natural" stones ever, this isnt worth buying at all if you where thinking of getting real gemstones , they are fake plastic and glass.

The positives are that there are what seems like a ton of these pieces, big and medium sized pieces, i received the package the next day, and the price was very good. The negatives are that I found d pin holes in some which means some were dyed and I found bubbles in some which means some are glass fakes. I suspect a lot will test as glass whwn I pull out my gem tester but I hope not. I give e it three stars for the positives. The price is right if you want glass made to look like gemstones with some, possibly real ones in the mix. Like I said, I havent tested them all yet.

These gemstones may not be natural or real but they are pretty and sparkly and they will work for the treasure box I'm making for the kids. Would probably be alright for costume jewelry too. Great bang for the buck. Good variety of colors and shapes and sizes. Fast shipping too! Came in one day.

I have bought several batches of these stones and this particular one was pretty bad. A lot of broken glass, glass hearts, faceted glass and black onyx. Not many gemstones. Not a good value.

The item was beautiful, out of all the stones only a couple could not sell. They are definitely worth the money and I am happy
