Yesterday as usual my mother watched Egoli ( a local SA soapie). One of the characters yet again has gotten involved in shady dealings and is involved in the trade of uncut Tanzanite. One of the parties involved in the trade picked up a stone, looked at it with for about 10 seconds and proceeds to say, "eye-clean just the way I like it, no inclusions anywhere" Now any jeweller will know, you cannot look at a stone with the naked eye and determine it value nor how perfect it is. The flaws are way too tiny, and it sure as hell isn't possible with a rough stone. Not only that but his "tanzanites" we bright glowing purple. Sorry Franz Marx, go back to school. Clearly whoever is doing his props needs to go back to film school or just take 5 minutes and actually do their research as do his writers. If you're going to try and make something believable, well as believable as Egoli can be, then do your work. I really did laugh my butt off...
