FAQs

Are the emeralds from Swat Valley treated or enhanced?

Most of our Swat Valley emeralds are untreated or have minor oil enhancement only — a standard, accepted practice in the emerald trade. Treatment status is disclosed in every product listing. Rough emeralds are typically completely untreated.

What is the difference between faceting rough and mineral specimens in this collection?

Faceting rough is intended for gem cutters and lapidary artists — these are raw stones with good transparency and color suitable for cutting into faceted gems. Mineral specimens are natural crystals on matrix, valued for their aesthetic display quality and collector appeal rather than cutting potential.

Do you offer Kashmir sapphires, and how do I know they are genuine?

Yes — we carry genuine Kashmir sapphire rough sourced from Pakistan's Kashmir region, known for its distinctive pinkish-purple and lavender hues. Each listing includes origin details, weight, and clarity information. For high-value purchases, we recommend requesting additional documentation or a third-party lab certificate.

Can I buy emeralds or rubies in bulk for jewelry manufacturing?

Absolutely. We offer wholesale lots of emerald rough, ruby rough, and faceted stones specifically for jewelers, gem cutters, and manufacturers. Lots range from 100 to 250+ carats. Some listings are available by inquiry — contact us for custom bulk pricing and availability.

What ruby origins do you carry, and which is the most valuable?

We carry rubies from Afghanistan, Burma (Myanmar), and Mozambique. Burmese (Mogok) rubies are generally considered the most valuable due to their legendary pigeon-blood red color and fluorescence. Afghan rubies offer excellent untreated pinkish-red hues at more accessible price points, while Mozambique rubies are ideal for lapidary and bulk cutting work.
