Gemstones, semi-precious stones etc

So this time I wanted to talk about gemstones. 
They are very very beautiful. But also rather expensive. 
That's the reason I don't have many.


Some gemstones as amethyst can be found in geodes. A geode is a rock that is ordinary rock on the outside, but on the inside there are crystals. (Geood-kristallidega täidetud õõneskivim)
This is a very intresting subject cause there is an another mystery in a geode rock. But it's hard to tell the difference between an ordinary rock and a geode, you just have to crack it open. 
Pretty intriguing, huh!?


What would you do if you found one of those?


But it's not that hard, there are shops everywhere you can buy cut or uncut rocks over the world. (Even in Estonia :).
I personally liked the article of how to cut a rock here.
