I’ve been working as a prop maker for years, and I’m always fascinated by how materials can evoke certain emotions or perceptions. Lately, I’ve been curious about something: as a miner, you see raw gold and diamonds every day what is it about these materials that makes them feel luxurious, even beyond their rarity? Is it the way they catch the light, their texture, or something else entirely? I’d love to hear your thoughts, especially from those who handle these materials regularly. What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hold them?
