Great video…. Pink sapphire most likely. Great find! There is every color possible when it comes to sapphires. Try your black light to see if she fluoresces. If she glows it was most likely treated.

Ok will do. Thank you for your input.

Hi, Sandra! Generally speaking, rubies and sapphires are the same gem. They are both corundum. Red corundum is ruby and every other color corundum is sapphire. Gemstones goes over this in more detail on their channel. They are a great resource to learn about gem stones and gem materials. I hope this information helps. 🙂

Glad you like them! Thanks so much!

There are pink rubies and pink sapphires I have a yellow sapphire ring that was labeled citrine

There is such a thing as a pink ruby. Rare & very valuable. The first time you tested it though, it came up as a pink sapphire. I have a pink ruby.

Its pink sapphire.. beautiful ❤️

Hi Sandra, at TS 13:21 the brooch may be rhodium plated. If one needs to get through it to see if it’s precious metal underneath, it can be a bear to get through. We can see why some of these pieces last for so long, right? That rhodium is a very hard substance. Great video! 👍❤️

I think it maybe a pink sapphire. But take it to jewelry store to find out. I didn't know about pink ruby. But you never know.

Helloooo Sandra!!! ❤❤❤

Do you test for platinum? I had to get plat solution cos a bracelet turned out to be platinum. 😊 it leaves an interesting mark. I double check a lot, too. Can drive you nuts. Hugs!

Yes! I try to be gentle when scratching - sometimes too gentle. So sometimes I need a do-over. My kit does platinum too. Congrats on the platinum bracelet and thanks for watching!

Pink Sapphire and purple sapphire

Sapphires, rubies and spinel come In other colors.

In my acid kit it came with a stone neutralizer bottle.

interesting.... I'll have to check that out. Cheers!

Mystic topaz or possibly tourmaline?

The emerald cut ring may be pink topaz or pink sapphire.

BINGO 💎

Sapphires come in all colors except red because those are rubies.

Pink sapphire

The pink ring could be both, but if it's a pink sapphire it is very rare. Take it a gem person.

I love your educational videos. Not that its any of my business, but are you left handed or right handed? I notice you are very ambidextrous.

I like to write left-handed, but do everything else (scissors, bowling, tools, etc) with my right. I snapped my left humerus a few years ago (not as fun as it sounds haha!) and was forced to write right-handed. I can do it, but it doesn't look great. Thanks for watching. Cheers.

There are so many fake sterling 😭
