Gemnique Glass Gems - Orange/Amber (48 oz.)

This is what I did with them. My room and bathroom are gray and plum, so these are absolutely perfect for me! They were so carefully packed and arrived in 2 days, much sooner than expected. Don't hesitate. Pay the extra $$ for quality

I bought this set of 3 ceramic succulent pots (for fake succulents) on Amazon and wanted them to be filled with something pretty.The color of these (latte for me) was spot on, exactly as pictured.The only reasons I give this a 4 star and not a 5 are:-at least 5% of the marbles were broken or chipped. Not a big deal for me, but for the price I was surprised any of them were broken.-Right on the Amazon box it shipped in it was labeled 3.2 pounds. So I HIGHLY doubt I got 3 pounds of actual marbles. That 3.2lb weight included the container and all.Overall it worked but for the price i don't feel like these are 5 star quality, in the future I’d probably just go buy marbles at an arts and crafts store like Hobby Lobby.UPDATE: For whatever reason I received a second 3lb box of these marbles today, I have no idea if this was the seller trying to be nice to me or what, but this time they were packed very well and it doesn’t look like a single marble is broken.And this time the shipping weight is 4.0lbs.So I’m guessing I just had bad luck the first go around.A weird way to get here, but I’ll give it a 5 star now.Cheers!

These are clear and about 2.5 inches in diameter. Flat on both sides (just what I wanted) - perfect for magnets. I'll have to get some whopper strong magnets for this heavy glass. I usually get 5/8" thick ones from the craft stores, but they are unavailable now. I didn't pay attention when reading the description for thickness. I'll see if I can get these to stay on a door or refrigerator without sliding down. I get strong magnets from some welders in the area. Shipped in great packaging and very quickly. I'm not looking for the dome type glass, that most people have available - terrible for magnets.

Loved them. Loved the color! Used them for our daughter’s wedding. Put them in a water filled round vase with a submerged light. Beautiful and shimmery!!!

Needed some glass gems for a plant humidity tray, and these fit the bill perfectly. Bought another brand initially, but was not happy with them, as they were clear gems that had just been coated with red coloring. The Gemnique gems (in red) were colored all the way through--no worries about the coloring flaking or bubbling off after being submerged in water.Came very well packaged--gems were in a hard plastic jar, with a foam insert at the top to keep them from rattling around. Each jar was in it's own small cardboard box. I ordered two 4 lb jars (of the "standard" size)--no broken or cracked gems in either jar. They worked perfectly for the humidity tray, and look fantastic.

So overall I gave this a 4 just because the things I don’t like about it are somewhat my fault for not paying better attention, but the picture was a little misleading.The picture for the Teal Luster shows the coloring different between the standard and mini sizes. It looks less reflective and blue in the standard - which is what I got (and the only color/option I looked at because I thought it was exactly what I needed). The mini size along with the coloring descriptions, which I looked at after receiving them, shows the color as having much more of a silvery reflection with purples, blues and yellows. Not what I was wanting, but it will do.Packaging was very good and secure.

I bought these to fill up a small flower pot on my desk that has fake tulips. This was the perfect solution. The amount of rocks was exactly what I needed to fill up the little pot. They are large and sturdy enough to hold up the tulips which were all bound together. The flowers are up high so you can't see the rocks but if I had this on a table that was visible it also looks very nice. Great find!

For the most part the gems were what I expected. What dissapointed me was that a lot of them were dull looking and had no luster. I've bought gems before and they always had a beautiful shine which is what makes them attractive. I used the gems for a mason jar solar light. I will continue to purchase but would like to see that luster on all of the gems. Then I could say they are definitely worth the money as they are a little expensive side.
