I have as small collection of tumbled gemstones, don't know much about them, but they're interesting collectables. Have a few books on them, but they mostly go into what their reported 'medical' and 'spiritual' benefits are according to the crystal enthusiast new-agers, which is interesting tho dubious. My birthstone is turquoise and I have a nice chunk of that which a gal-pal gave me. Mostly they're on the lounge-room windowsill as ornaments. Not sure what else to do with them.
I have hundreds of rock and mineral specimens. They are everywhere on tables, sills, mantles, in bonsai landscapes and collectors boxes.
