For today’s Exhibit of the Day, let’s visit one of the finest large mineral crystals ever found. This is the Tarugo, a dazzling elbaite tourmaline. This large gem measures 33.5 inches (85 cm) in length and weighs 180 pounds (82 kg)! The Tarugo is notable for its exceptional quality and unique cranberry color.
See it up close in the Museum’s Mignone Halls of Gems and Minerals!

i'm watching carnival row right now and honestly, i think it's really good but i only have a few episodes left and i know in my heart it's not going to end with polyamory even though it really should end with polyamory

What sort of beads would you suggest to represent the different lgbtq+ flags? Sorry if it takes a while/multiple posts, there are a lot of flags XD particularly interesting in the ace flag and the general pride flag.
No apologies needed hun (forgive the pet name, I call everyone hun lol)! I'm a member of the community myself - specifically grey-ace pan - so the LGBTQ+ themes are very close to my heart. In fact, I've been considering having a staple line of bracelets for specific causes/ meanings, and one of the two branches I was looking at is just that!
I apologise for taking so long to respond, but given the number of flags and the number of crystals I have, I wanted to make sure I gave them a good, proper think-through, rather than randomly assigning them. While they may be assigned more for color than meaning, that doesn't mean they should be arbitrary, after all.
I will actually do a separate post for the flag category as a whole, since there are such a large number of them, but I did give a lot of thought to these two in particular, both because they're so close to home and because those were the ones you were most curious about.
I think, for the general pride flag, I would go for a chalcedony mix for the flag portion of the bracelet and then something like an obsidian or tourmaline for the remainder, to make it 'pop', or any bead preferred, really. That may sound lazy, but I feel that using all different colors of chalcedony not only allows for the bracelet to have a coherent 'tone' to the rainbow beads (same transparency and vibrance all across), but it represents equality that way - no one bead is 'better' or 'more valuable' than the rest, since all are versions of the same crystal. Yes, they're dyed crystals, and I normally lean toward the natural ones if I can, but in this instance, I think there's no beating them, really.
As for the Ace flag, that one gave me a bit more pause, because I wanted to be as careful as I could when it came to design. What I ended up with were two possible designs. Each would be on a band of whichever crystal was preferred (so it could be Tea Jasper or Sodalite, or anything that was calling to you), but would be surrounded on each side (as would the Pride flag) by a Clear Quartz bead, to mark off the flag itself. These were the designs I thought of (with some help from my partners):
Black Tourmaline, Picasso Jasper, White Agate, Amethyst
Black Obsidian, Picasso Jasper, White Agate, Lepidolite
Both schemes include Picasso and White Agate because I feel they bring the best colors for the flag, but with one, you have more transparency in the colors, while with the other, there's more opacity. Also, the former pattern is designed with the non-VIP Black Tourmaline in mind, as it has quartz inclusions in it. This, to me, signifies that there are a wide variety of types of Asexuality on the spectrum, and all deserve to be counted.
I hope that helps, and I promise to make a series of posts with the other flags in the very near future!
Thanks for the question!
