These tradeskill collection quests were initially added with GU46, then more collections have been added over time. There are a few special things to note before we go further:
- Unless otherwise noted you must have completed the quest for the Earring of the Solstice in order to see the shiny spawns.This means that you must be level 80 in your primary tradeskill and have finished your crafting epic.(Tinkering and transmuting do not count, as they are secondary tradeskills.) As of Feb. 22, 2011, you no longer have to actually have the earring equipped, you just have to have earned it.Newer collections have various quest completion requirements instead of requiring the earring of the solstice and are in a separate table
- Some of the actual rewards are NO TRADE, others are tradeable
- Hand-ins award you with adventuring xp/AA.
- Some of the items have special effects to them and will be explained underneath the image tables.
Scattered throughout Norrath, for only the most skilled of crafters to discover, are red collection glowies that can only be seen by those who own the Earring of the Solstice.
Note that the number in parens in the table below indicates the number of unique glowies in that collection.

*Added notes
But Wait, There's More!
I did mention that not all collections required that you complete the quest for the Earring of the Solstice, correct? And that not all of the shinies were lore? The below five red shiny collections come from the Planes of Prophecy Daily Tradeskill Missions. To be clear, these only spawn in the daily tradeskill missions, NOT in the signature line version of the instances. You will receive 3-4 red shinies per mission. If you zone out/camp for any reason, you will not receive any more shinies, even if you have not obtained the 3-4 you should get from the zone, so gobble shinies before you have to camp/zone for any reason.
You do not need to have obtained your Earring of the Solstice in order to see these red shinies. You will, of course, have to have completed the Planes of Prophecy Tradeskill Signature Line in order to gain access to the mission zones. The shinies are completely tradeable, with no Lore tag.
The rewards are: Heart of Scorn Shrine (Ants), Prince of Hate Shrine (Flies), Basilica of Hate Brazier (Moths), Shrine of Eternal Agony (Beetles), Unholy Water Font (Spiders).

... I Didn't Say We Were Done Yet!Four red shiny collections were added in Vetrovia for GU (Game Update) 119. Each collection has a different requirement, so read carefully!
- The Svarni Expanse collection spawns can be seen by those who have completed Were is the Messenger: Different Tastes.
- The Karuupa Jungle collection spawns can be seen by those who have completed Were is the Messenger: Say Cheese.
- The Mahngavi Expanse collection spawns can be seen by those who have completed Were is the Messenger: Mad Machinations.
- The Forlorn Gist collection spawns can be seen when players are under the effect of the Illusion: Werewolf potion available from Renfry's Basement.(If you have only completed through Were is the Messenger: Mad Machinations, you can buy the Illusion: Werewolf from Ziggy in Renfry's Basement. If you have completed the entire Were is the Messenger line, you could alternately pick up either the daily or the weekly TS mission from within Renfry's Basement to obtain a free Illusion: Werewolf.)

Game Update 122 in April of 2023 added four more base red shiny collections, plus a meta collection. In order to see the collection spawns, you will need to have completed the Researchers of Ro tradeskill signature line for the Renewal of Ro. Each base collection rewards you with a house item and a collection piece that is the same name as the collection it came from. (Such as "More Crafting Nails"). Obtain the four meta-collection pieces and you can obtain the meta reward from "A Plethora of Nails"
