Tumbled Clear Quartz and Citrine Points
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Gemstone ring (stones not reliably identifiable from the image)
Likely faceted yellow stones and clear stones set in a metal band; species and treatments are indeterminate visually
Amethyst cabochon
Quartz, silicon dioxide (SiO₂), purple variety colored mainly by iron impurities and irradiation
Blue glassy mineral specimen, possibly dyed or synthetic
Uncertain; possible blue fluorite (CaF₂), dyed chalcedony, or man-made glass
Blue Quartz / Glass Gemstone Pendant
SiO2 (Silicon Dioxide) or Synthetic Glass
Tiger’s-eye
Chatoyant quartz (SiO₂), commonly pseudomorphic quartz after crocidolite
Faceted quartz crystal sphere (likely rock crystal)
Quartz, silicon dioxide (SiO₂)
Diamond (or Cubic Zirconia simulant)
Carbon (C) or Zirconium Dioxide (ZrO2)
Carved labradorite fish
Labradorite, calcium-rich plagioclase feldspar (approximately (Ca,Na)(Al,Si)₄O₈)
Goldstone
Avventurina (Man-made Glass with Copper inclusions)
Amethyst (Tumbled)
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) with Fe3+ impurities
Raw ruby (corundum)
Ruby variety of corundum, aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃), colored chiefly by chromium
Red cut gemstone, likely synthetic ruby
Corundum (Al₂O₃); possibly lab-grown ruby or red glass imitation
Red/pink faceted gemstone, likely synthetic ruby or red glass
Corundum (Al₂O₃) if ruby; identity cannot be confirmed visually
Gem-set gold ring
Likely a faceted diamond (carbon, C) set in a gold-alloy ring; the surrounding stones are not identifiable from the image.
Quartz (Druzy / Goldstone Gemstone Cabochon)
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Opalite
Synthetic Glass (Hydrated Crystalline Silicon Dioxide simulation)
Green Fluorite (likely synthetic or heat-treated for jewelry)
Calcium Fluoride (CaF2)
Cut gemstone, likely diamond
Diamond (crystalline carbon, C)
Faceted clear gemstone (likely glass imitation or quartz)
Uncertain; appearance is consistent with colorless quartz (SiO₂), but the strong uniform brilliance may indicate cut glass or cubic zirconia
Diamond ring (likely a faceted clear gemstone)
Diamond, crystalline carbon (C); the setting appears to be gold-colored metal
Opalite-style pendant (likely synthetic glass, not natural opal)
Opalescent glass; commonly sold as “opalite” (not a recognized mineral species)
Silicon
Crystalline Silicon (Si)
Cubic Zirconia (Diamond Simulant)
Zirconium Dioxide (ZrO2)
Red gemstone ring, likely synthetic ruby or red glass; exact stone cannot be confirmed from the image
Ruby (corundum, Al₂O₃) if natural; the setting appears to be silver-tone metal
Opalite
Man-made Glass (Synthetic Opalized Glass)
Goldstone
Aventurine glass (Synthetic glass with copper inclusions)
Fluorite
Calcium Fluoride (CaF2)
Red faceted gemstone, likely synthetic ruby or red glass
Ruby: corundum, aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃), chromium-colored; identity cannot be confirmed visually
Smoky Quartz
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Diamond (Set in jewelry)
Cubic Carbon (C)
Blue Goldstone
Aventurine glass (Synthetic borosilicate glass with cobalt and metallic inclusions)
Smoky Quartz
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Blue Sapphire
Corundum (Al2O3)
Quartz (Smoky Quartz variant)
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Opalite
Man-made Synthetic Glass (Silicon Dioxide with metal additives)
Ruby
Corundum (Al2O3 with Chromium trace)
Decorative opal-like turtle mosaic
Likely imitation or assembled opal material; exact stones cannot be confirmed visually
Howlite
Howlite (Calcium borosilicate hydroxide, Ca2B5SiO9(OH)5)
Clear Quartz (Rock Crystal)
Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)
Polished tiger’s eye
Quartz (microcrystalline SiO₂) with crocidolite-derived iron oxides
Clear-stone silver-tone teardrop earring
The stones may be colorless quartz or glass; the image does not allow reliable identification. Metal setting appears silver-tone.
