Hypnotic Gems 2 Pounds Brazilian Tumbled Polished Natural Stones Assorted Mix - XX Small Size - 0.25" to 0.75" - Average 0.50"

I don't know what some of these are but I love them! I ordered 3 lbs of the Medium size and got the max amount of 81. All are within the sizes listed but I think a few might even be a bit big (which I'm thrilled about)! Not a single one was broken or chipped and there's not a stinker in the bunch! I know the pictures don't show them categorized correctly but I took the pics before I attempted to identify them so that's on me. I didn't get any Hematite, which is good, because it's very heavy and I already had some. I also didn't get any Yellow Jasper, which I'm sad about, but I got some really nice pieces of Rose Quartz, Bronzite, Citrine, Emerald (I think), Black Tourmaline (I think), Sodalite (stunning!), a couple Smokey Quartz, and lots more! None are dyed as far as I can tell but I read that dyed ones work the same as natural ones anyway so I'm not worried about it. I'm certainly no expert but I didn't see any tell-tale signs that others listed of dark lines in any of my stones. I'm having a really hard time identifying whether what I got was Black Tourmaline or Black Onyx so if anyone has any help there, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, I can't tell if I got Aventurine or Green Quartz so again, if anyone knows, please comment! Overall, I'm very happy with my lot and will be ordering more.I bought some necklace cords, "50pcs Black Satin Silk Necklace Cord 2.0mm/24'' with 2'' Extension Chain Lead&nickel Free" https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NZ6ICVK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1and some cage pendants, "PEPPERLONELY Brand 20PC Silver Plated Spiral Bead Cage Charms Pendants (Holds 18mm - 22mm Beads)" https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QDLE9EI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1and made some pretty sweet necklaces with the smaller stones. I made 20 necklaces with these and probably have enough smaller stones left to make a few more but if you want these for the cages I listed, you should probably order the Small size. I have 55+ left that are good-sized (which was what I wanted) but I plan to order some more stones in size Small and some more of those cage pendants. I'm thinking I can use the smallest of that bunch and put a few in each cage and the larger ones in their own cages. (Not all necklaces were photographed.)

I ordered the 3 lbs of small stones, and I'm pretty pleased. There were only a few broken pieces and a decent variety of specimens. In total I received about 150 stones, which included sodalite/lapis, red and green jasper (more of the former than the latter), various agates, carnelian, aventurine, amethyst, tourmaline, calcite, citrine, chrysoprase, various colors of quartz and 6 speckly brown stones that I think may be bronzite. There was one piece of very shiny hematite in the bunch, and a stunning piece of smokey quartz that I might end up wire wrapping. I may not have identified them all correctly. Nevertheless, they are beautiful grand additions to my collection!

I was kind of disappointed. I ordered 3 pounds of the XXL and received 12. I have collected a lot of crystals, so I don’t mind a few scratches. However, a few of these were way beyond a few scratches. I was super excited about the smokey quartz until I saw that it looked like it had been cracked and glued back together. I could be wrong, but it looks bad for a stone that is supposed to be tumbled. The carnelian and red jasper had small holes in them, which is unfortunate, but I can live with that. The sunstone, had such an odd texture. Almost as if plastic was melted over a rough texture. The amethyst also had a large crack in it. The smokey quartz and the sunstone were the most disappointing.With that being said, for the price it is still a good deal. I still got 7-8 big, good stones. Obviously I wish they had all been good condition though.

I was initially very disappointed with this set. Some of the stones were definitely not among the listed mix, but they weren't bad specimens--the moonstone( (again, not on the list) is actually a nice piece. The biggest issues I have are as follows.First, the quality of the tumbling finish is uneven. Some are beautiful; a few look like they came from somebody's garden landscaping. Mostly, the tumbling is fine. As is true with the stones. There are a few stones in this set that took me hours to figure out, and I operate a crystal and stone business myself. The Amethyst, Citrine, Quartz, and Red Jasper were all nice stones.The other problem is with those Red Jasper. They are all gorgeous. Each of the SEVEN of the Red Jaspers is lovely. However, again, there were seven of them. This order 'only came with 42 stones. In addition to the seven Red Jasper. I had three Amethyst, three Quartz, three Citrine, three Aventurine, and three Dalmatian Stone, totaling 22 out of 42. That's over half of the total from six types of stone. Obviously, a little more variety would've been appreciated. As far as the hand-picking process...It didn't seem to work so well, in my order, at least.The finish on the Quartz family stones (quartz, amethyst, & citrine) were nice. The Aventurine were a little lumpy and uneven, but the Red Jaspers are all gorgeous. Pity I didn't just need Red Jasper.My order could have been an anomaly. I've ordered from this company before via Amazon, and I can't recall any major disappointments, so as they say, "your mileage may vary."(note: I wrote a rather scathing review yesterday. Today, upon reexamining these stones, I see that I was way overblown in my criticism. I'm actually keeping the set now, although I'll definitely order Medium next time--these things are massive. So I'm revising and amending my review, and removing the uncallled-for shredding and insulting sarcasm. Mea culpa, y'all (as we say in the South ;-) ))

These stones are definitely large and there is a nice assortment of them as well. Clearly no duplicates and one of the stones is gigantic. Would definitely order more from this seller. I might order the same set and see if there are more varieties available to add to this collection. Picture below is the assortment I got...

I ordered the two lb bag of small stones. They arrived in great time and are fab!I didn’t really know what to expect so I’m really happy with what arrived. Nice pieces, nice textures and lots of colour. I would 100% order again, maybe the next size up though

Lots of similar colours mainly brown blue white and green , none of the yellow purple or red shown in the picture.

Very decorative, good selection

I purchased the 3lb bag of small mixed Brazilian tumbled stones and was so impressed with the amount, quality, variety and size of stones I received that I ordered a second bag and upon receiving that bag everything was as with the first bag so I ordered a third and also 2 bags of the raw stones from them and not one bag came with any disappointments. And I plan on purchasing bags with the bigger sized stones.Not all stones are perfect but nothing in life is and that's what makes each stone even more beautiful and unique.I especially enjoyed the raw stones being able to rinse them off with water and seeing the beauty of them come to life and I got some really beautiful pieces.And just a note, I don't put out many reviews. I only do so if I feel I have received an excellent top quality product such as this or if the product is so terrible I feel customers need to know.I don't take writing reviews lightly when it comes to other people spending their money on something but with that being said beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I expected small, broken or fake stones. But every piece I received was genuine and quite large! I got a good variety of pieces and I'm very happy.
