Clarity Chart -

VVS

Excellent quality gems that may have microscopic inclusions which are difficult to  to see under a loupe with 10x magnification.

VS/EyeClean


Very good quality gems with inclusions that are visible only under a jewelers loupe of 10x magnification. The inclusions are not clearly obvious to the naked eye. Or the inclusions are visible to the naked eye after very careful observation or in some cases from a certain angle only. In most cases the inclusions in gems of this grade can be hidden after setting the gem into jewelry.
 

Si

These gems have inclusions which are fairly easy to see by the naked eye. However, the overall beauty of the gem is still good as the inclusions are not visible from a distance, say an arms length.

II


The inclusions are prominent to the naked eye and affect the internal luster
and beauty of the gem.

Translucent

These gems allow light to pass through with dispersion. This clarity trait may not necessarily indicate an inferior quality gem. Gems such as Chalcedony are naturally translucent.

Opaque

These gems do not allow light to pass through them. This clarity trait may not necessarily indicate an inferior quality gem. Gems such as Turquoise are naturally opaque.

What can I do if my parcel has not arrived?
Firstly, please do email us directly - or telephone (613) 90105077 or 0404308888.

Computers and human error do occur from time to time - but we will do our very best to attend to a matter if we are told there is a problem.

We truly appreciate your custom and will do everything we can to look after you as well as your consignments!

Can I return my item for any reason?
Yes, in the unlikely event that you wish to return your item you have 14 days to notify us.
We do not receive returns after that period expires.

Multiple purchases can be packaged together and shipped for the one combined cost within a 7 day period. Wait until you have finished bidding and pay through the checkout which will combine for you automatically. If you have paid separately for gems through the checkout you can request a refund in postage if your items have not be shipped prior. This is not an automatic adjustment and needs you to email your request through to us - and we will do what is possible.

You may also request that parcels (once paid for) are held over for further combining. Once we know of your intention we can do this and invoice you separately in consideration of the postage already paid. Many of our collectors and jewelers do this.

Feedback is very important to us and we ask that you do contact us before leaving any neutral or neg. comments if for some reason you are unhappy. We will do our very best to continue offering accurate descriptions of our items - and yet, photographs, monitor calibrations, and expectations, can of course be problematic with remote buying.

We thank you for your custom and strive to continue to supply gems of rarity, beauty, quality and desirability.
