on my to get list are bloodstone , lapiz lazuli ,I feel I shouldt get some mexican jade , if only becuase it is mexican and I think I want an obsydian sphere ( I love obsidian ) , and I want an egg! X) I might even get the egg today =P haha and although I love skulls and crystals , I havent seen a crystal skull pretty enough to want it :/

I showed you mine , so show me yours!

:D

Very nice! I love the assortment of colours in picture; especially where how some of the crystals' colours contrast out with the white background. Looks like they are enjoying a day out in the sun.

Hmm, sounds like you are going to increase your collections today? I'm looking forward to see the "new members" to your crystal family. :)

nice collection! I do believe you have every color in the world represented there - I especially like the light green with the lines and the blues in pic 13 - are those agate? And what is that black stone that is triangle shaped with the carvings on it? That is very interesting looking, but I can't make out what it is supposed to be. I also see you have a nice amount of carnelian. I love carnelian.

I love the purple and white amethyst with the geometric lines - maybe it's called chevron amethyst? I just found a store near me that has a nice selection of it, with stones a good size too...need to get back there and pick up some more.

So where do you keep everything? How do you store your collection?

nice collection! I do believe you have every color in the world represented there -

d'aw Im so glad you liked it <3 I them all my , my little precious stone children haha
but as far as I know most of those are agate.

I especially like the light green with the lines and the blues in pic 13 - are those agate?
yes I thinks maybe there are agathe deposits around hre or somthinsg there's always a large variety of them


And what is that black stone that is triangle shaped with the carvings on it? That is very interesting looking, but I can't make out what it is supposed to be.
that'd be golden obsidian , and the carving is suposed to be a cheap imitation of something like this;

lol, I love obsidian as it is the stone of Tezcatlipoca the aztec god of witchcraft divination , the north ( Im from the north of mexico) the night and many other wonderfull things <3 including of course the creator of scrying mirrors =P I just like them both very very much :) and since they are both conectd it just multiplies my love for them haha

I also see you have a nice amount of carnelian. I love carnelian.
those ore one of my favourite stones, they kinda remind me of fire. and I have no idea why they arent called fire agate , fire agate looks like some kind of rainbow agate haha


I love the purple and white amethyst with the geometric lines - maybe it's called chevron amethyst? I just found a store near me that has a nice selection of it, with stones a good size too...need to get back there and pick up some more.
I think , those purple ones with lines are also agate , purple agate , but they may be the same thing with diferent names? after all agate is any kind of stripped quartz and amethyst is quarts too right? hmm I dont know... maybe its kind of like apache tears and obsidian? of maybe because the namde differs in the languages , for example I didnt know carnelian was a kind of agate until you mentioned it , for me is agathe cornalina , I just didnt make the conection haha

So where do you keep everything? How do you store your collection?
well currently they are all in some kind of bamboo-like box ? it looks like the thing used to make sushi , but in box format XD next to my bed ,I want to get a cool looking treasure-like chest because this box is obviously not meant to support the weight of rocks haha


I got a few more stones today <3
