This is one of those Brazilian pieces that just has everything going for it. The color of the Brazilianite is incredible, and sitting right up against that smoky quartz makes the whole piece jump.

At 8.2 cm, the composition is really special… that tall Brazilianite crystal in the back, the sharp smoky quartz in front, and the smaller crystals filling everything in around it. Pieces like this are exactly why I love Brazilian minerals so much. They can have unbelievable color, contrast, and balance all in one specimen. 🙌

Neon orange, damage-free calcite isolated on top of a sphalerite matrix. 🔥🔥🔥 I’ve handled many of these throughout my career; however, the intensity of this orange is something I have never seen before. This piece possesses an extreme color that simply can’t be matched, along with an unbelievable aesthetic.

Swipe to the next slide to see this specimen in motion. The video captures the color and presence in a way a single photograph never can.

Pieces like this are a reminder of why I fell in love with minerals in the first place. Nature continues to surprise me, and I feel incredibly fortunate to be able to share specimens like this with all of you.

This rock has what I call extra luster! When you hold it, you almost have to reevaluate how much luster a crystal can naturally possess. The big crystal is also internally flawless.

I feel so blessed to be able to share this piece with the world! I look forward to announcing the location and dates for our next exhibition soon.

I hope you’re all having a wonderful summer, and I’m looking forward to seeing so many of you in Denver soon! 🔮❤️🔥🥂🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

The Sword in the Stone 🗡️🪨

I loved that Disney movie as a kid, so the first time I saw this piece, that was instantly what I saw.

A gemmy green elbaite crystal shooting straight through a huge quartz, with lepidolite scattered around it. It looks more made up than the movie… 🤣

That is what I love about great minerals. The best ones are not just rare or expensive. They have personality. They make you feel something.

I bought this piece more than a decade ago, and it was later featured on page 84 of my book, Flawless Beauty. I have handled a ridiculous number of minerals since then, and this one still gets me every time.

Nature made its own Sword in the Stone, and honestly, it did a better job.

The longer I do this, the more I realize the best specimens don’t reveal themselves all at once. Anybody can appreciate a great first impression. What separates a world-class mineral is what happens after that. You keep coming back to it. You keep noticing something you missed. Years later, it’s still showing you something new.

That’s exactly what this piece does for me. Every time I pull it out, I find another detail I hadn’t noticed before. To me, that’s what the very best minerals do… they never get old.

♦️Enjoy it.♦️

This pocket is very dear to my heart. It wasn’t so much about what was inside it as it was about how nearly impossible it was to remove from a wall with almost 30 feet of overburden above it. So savage! 🔥

Now, when potential new collectors come to my house, they can actually see how most crystals form and visually take it all in. That’s one of the hardest bridges to cross for new collectors, and honestly, it’s one of the reasons many people choose not to collect—they simply don’t understand how these perfect geometric shapes come out of the earth. I’m so excited for people to finally experience this in person.
Funny enough, it’s already been inside my house for two years, and we’re finally entering the last year of construction. Ten years of building this interactive property, and soon the compound will be open for visitors 🔥❤️🥂 If you’re building a house, I strongly suggest not living in it during construction 😂😩🤯

One of the things I’ve appreciated most over the last five years is getting to hear how Will thinks, not just about minerals, but about collecting in general. This was one of those conversations that stuck with me. When you’re new to this world, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of buying beautiful things. Over time I’ve realized that who you buy from can be just as important as what you buy.

That doesn’t mean every dealer who isn’t a collector is doing something wrong. There are a lot of honest, knowledgeable people in this business. I think Will’s point is simply that passion matters. When someone genuinely believes in what they’re selling, it usually changes the conversation. They tend to care more about helping you build a great collection than just making the next sale.

As someone who’s still learning every day, that perspective has changed the way I look at collecting. 💯🙌

I have handled many calcites from India throughout my career, but this one is beyond special.

Something a video could never truly show is the luster. It is unlike any luster I’ve ever seen on a calcite from any locality. 🤯🤯😳

The crystal is also internally flawless. Even though it may not appear that way in the video, it most definitely is. The matrix creates an illusion, but when you hold it in your hand, it simply makes no sense.

I’ve handled many seven-figure gem crystals in my career, and this thing has something completely remarkable going on within it.

I’m blessed to be able to share this jewel. However, only holding it can truly show how special it is.

Eventually, my house on Granada Ave. will be complete in Tucson, and I plan on using it as a museum and a place to gather and mingle during the greatest gem show on Earth. I’m going to turn this estate into a place for education and a place to celebrate the joy of collecting.

I hope you all have a great weekend. Summer in Wisconsin is so beautiful.

If you are serious about collecting, please feel free to reach out about a visit. My schedule is insane, but if planned in advance, I can usually make a day available. 🥂😊🙏🏻🥂
