Understanding Gemstone Certification
The gemstone certification process is rigorous and thorough, ensuring that each stone meets high standards of quality. The Gemological Institute of America (GIA), a revered name in gemstone certification, employs state-of-the-art technology and expert gemologists to examine and grade each gemstone. This comprehensive process guarantees that every certified gemstone is described correctly and has any treatments and enhancements disclosed.
Types of Certified Gemstones Available
Our collection boasts an exquisite array of GIA certified gemstones, ranging from the fiery brilliance of rubies to the serene depth of sapphires, and the timeless elegance of diamonds. However there are many more gemological institutes that have the ability to test gemstones at the highest level. Each one of these labs are included in our list of approved gemstone laboratories that we accept. The full list can be found here. Whether you're seeking the perfect engagement ring or a stunning addition to your jewelry collection, our certified gemstones are curated to meet your desires.
How to Verify Gemstone Certification
Verifying the certification of your gemstone is straightforward and ensures peace of mind in your purchase. Each certified gemstone comes with a unique report number that can be checked against the online database of the gem lab, offering an easy way to confirm the authenticity of your gemstone's certification.
Question 1: Why buy Certified Gems?
The market is flooded with glass, plastic and synthetic gemstones. Over the years this has done great harm to the gemstone industry. Gem Rock Auctions is dedicated to selling only natural gemstones to our customers. Having a large selection of certified and tested gemstones ads to the confidence of buyers.
Question 2: What labs are the most popular?
In the USA, the GIA is the most popular lab. However in other markets like Asia, labs such as GRS, Lotus Gemology, AIGS, IGI and AGL are popular choices.
Question 3: Can all reports be verified?
Most reports can be verified on the Gemstone labs website. However not all labs provide this service, so if that is important to you it is worth checking they offer that service before purchasing.
Question 4: Can every type of Gemstone be tested?
Yes! Diamond, Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald are the most common Gemstones to be tested, there is gemological data for every type of gemstone which means they can be tested and identified.
