Precious & Semi Precious Stone

We cater to the needs of jewellers by supplying gemstones

Be rest assured for veritable and popularly priced gem stones

The classic precious stones include Rubies, Sapphires, Emeralds, and Diamonds. However, most gemstones fall in the realm of semi-precious stones. If you are in the market for any one of these precious stones, expect to pay a lot more for the item.

Although diamonds and sapphires are found all over the globe in large supply, these particular precious stones are very popular, allowing manufacturers to control the amount given to jewelers and allowing jewelers to ask high prices.
Rubies and other precious stones are significantly more rare and the chances of finding precious stones over 3 carats are extremely unlikely.

Fortunately, rubies, diamonds, and sapphires are all ranked about 9 on the Mohs scale. That means these precious stones are extremely durable and resistant to many nicks and bumps.

There is a consensus that diamonds, rubies, emeralds, and sapphires are the “precious” gemstones. Everything else is piled into the semi-precious stones category.
