I have been craving looking and multiple colors lately. I was reading a book that mentioned Revelation 21, and I started wondering what all those stones looked like, so I put this together.
Revelation 21:18-21
The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. 19 The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald,20 the fifth onyx, the sixth ruby, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth turquoise, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.[f] 21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass.

Crystals with more water are yellow to brown, while those with more fluorine are typically blue or colorless. The most popular color is a rich orange-yellow, resembling the color of sherry wine.

The 12 Stones of Revlation 21
None of of know exactly what that will look like, but I suspect that our Earthly bodies are limited in what they can sense, and in heaven our senses can experience in a way we never could before. I know that heaven is so beautiful, and it is my home.

May God richly bless you!
