When the rocks became recognized as the newest and rarest gemstone, it rocked the jewelry and gemological world. Randy's story appeared in over 200 newspapers , leading news magazines and was featured on four top-rated network TV shows. This video follows the world-renowned designer from the time of the discovery and shows him making beautiful jewelry from the vivid purple stones.

  • Little known fact is that before becoming Indiana Jones of the gem world, Randy Polk was a '70's porn star, who "acted" under the stage name of Randy Poker. His friends liked to recall that even when he was old, fat, and bald, he would occasionally joke that if he lost everything in pursuit of this gem, he could always go back to the skin trade! Ha ha ha! Truly an American hero.
