Who American amateur with gem interest

[asterismdispersion]

Hello Pricescope,

I am an American guy with an interest in vintage / antique jewels and the many natural gemstones the earth's geology has created. I remember arranging blue, red, and green Legos and Lego-like blocks with yellow ones to emulate sapphire, ruby, and emerald when I was a child. Now that I am purportedly an adult, I acquire real gems here and there, too.

Thank you for the great, informative posts in the community.
