Painite: The Undisputed King of Rare Gemstones

Step aside diamonds, there's a new king in town! In the realm of gemstones, where rarity meets magnificence, Painite reigns supreme. This gem boasts the Guinness World Record for being the rarest mineral on Earth, making it a true collector's dream.

A History Shrouded in Mystery

Painite's story began in 1951, when a British geologist stumbled upon a stunning ruby-red crystal in Myanmar. Initially mistaken for a ruby, it wasn't until 1957 that scientists discovered its unique composition, christening it Painite in honor of its discoverer.

Rarity Beyond Compare

For years after its discovery, Painite remained elusive, with only a few specimens known to exist. Even today, despite new deposits being found, uncovering high-quality Painite suitable for cutting into gemstones is incredibly rare. Estimates suggest there are less than a thousand facetable Painite stones in the world, making them a true rarity.

A Gemstone cloaked in Mystery

Painite's extreme scarcity keeps it hidden away in museums and private collections. This exclusivity adds to its mystique and allure, making it a legend whispered about amongst gem enthusiasts.

More Than Just Rare: The Enchantment of Painite

Painite's appeal goes beyond just being rare. Here's what truly sets it apart:

Brilliant Fire: When expertly cut and polished, Painite explodes with exceptional brilliance and fire, rivaling even the most coveted diamonds. This play of light makes it a sight to behold.

A Collector's Holy Grail: Owning a Painite is a pinnacle achievement for gemstone enthusiasts. The opportunity to possess such a rare and exquisite piece is a privilege reserved for a lucky few.

So, if you ever have the chance to lay eyes on a Painite gemstone, consider yourself incredibly fortunate. Its rarity, captivating beauty, and intriguing history solidify its place as the undisputed king of the gemstone world.

More Painite doodles.

Ok lore dump incoming:

Painite, as one of the rarest minerals on earth, is completely unable to replace lost limbs. This makes them incredibly paranoid, so they usually look for any excuse to do indoors work instead of going on patrol. Painite has a crush on Rhodochrosite, who they admire for their ability to make them feel happy. Painite has heard of the Angelite twins who joined the lunarians, and they want to join the lunarians themselves, so that they could live with Rhodo undisturbed.

Warm up doodle to get back to the painting regularly. I didn't paint much this year I tried to go back to the painting and failed in most of my attempts. Trying to do too many challenging and ambitious projects left me overwhelmed and frustrated so I've changed my tactic. Studies focused only on one, max two subjects like valor and color and small paintings for practice. We shall see. I hope I'll get back on the right track soon.
