The media could not be loaded. 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.

I'm very disappointed to receive my "Gem Stones " and I got Cut Glass with chips and bubbles in them. Stay away, waste of money. Don't buy!

I use these gems for my art projects and they are perfect in size and price. The seller is easy to work with and I couldn’t be happier with my last order… just ordered another 5000 ct and cant wait to get them. I bling out walking sticks, canes and my favorite, wooden staffs like a wizard would carry. I just got my newest batch of stones and they are perfect and even better than the last batch. I was able to request the stones I need and the seller worked with me to get exactly what I needed.

I mean they’re pretty and well faceted but they are all glass and 1/4th of them came cracked.They’re fine for what I need but I can see them being useless to some.

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.

Loved these will reorder.As advertised, value for the price.

The specific gravity tests say glass, I haven't run them through the refractometer yet, the cuts look like a person learning lapadary cut them but not to bad. But the main point, no topaz, garnets, peridot, amethyst, citrine, appears to be glass... will not be buying these again...

A big variety of colors & shapes. Most are probably glass, but that's expected for the peice. The vast majority are in good shape. A lot of fun for crafts or decoration.
