Due to spinel's unique octahedral growth structure, a crossing of two triangular crystals will result in a Star of David shape to appear in the crystal. The phenomena is similar to trapiche emeralds. 

This is absolutely the finest Star of David ✡ spinel on the market. Like trapiche emeralds, Star of David spinels get their value for the sharpness of the star shape, the clarity of the crystal, and the intensity of the color. This stone checks all of those boxes. Absolute perfection. 

Almost all other Star of David spinels on the market are heavily included, milky, and of poor color. Those that compete with this exceptional stone, however, none are as nice, are exorbitantly expensive. As a direct wholesaler, we were able to acquire this gorgeous specimen at a reasonable price and are able to pass on those savings to our valued customers.

FAQs

What is cor gems?

cor gems is a gemstone dealer headquartered in Whitby, Canada with inventory and logistics management handled by our Canadian and Thai offices. 

We started by supplying jewelry manufacturers with loose gemstones and diamonds and expanded into custom orders for collectors. Currently, cor gems is focusing on bringing its superior customer service to the world of e-commerce.

Our logo is stylized as cor gems; it’s entirely lowercase because we believe in no-frills simplicity. Buying a gemstone should be an easy process, and cor gems strives to achieve just that with superlative quality gems, industry-best prices, and unparalleled customer service.

How are our cor gems’ prices so low?

We achieve our industry-best prices by sourcing directly from miners and cutters. In addition to delivering value to our customers, eliminating business intermediaries in this manner allows us to provide our suppliers with fair compensation.

Does cor gems take custom orders?

Yes! We love making our customers’ dreams come true. We can source virtually any gemstone from Argyle pink diamonds to pigeon’s blood red Burmese rubies to royal blue Kashmir sapphires. If it exists, we can get it to you – and we can get it to you for a better price than anyone else. Guaranteed.

We can also source rough gemstones and have one of the cutters from our expansive network cut it to your exact specifications.

Whether you want a large number of tourmaline beads for jewelry making or are looking to turn an exceptional ruby rough into a world-class addition to your collection, we have access to cutters from around the globe to match your exact requirements.

From budget cutters in Thailand who can do decent work for $1/CT to AGTA-winning masters, our network is one of the biggest and best on Earth.

What’s the cor gems story?

My name is Muhammad and I am obsessed with two things: gemstones and customers!

My gem obsession began when I was fifteen years old. It was a sunny summer day, and I was at a garage sale with my mother. There was a dollar bin full of books on everything from astronomy to equine studies, but it was the book on gemstones that piqued my interest.

I was amazed by the historical significance, rarity, and above all, the beauty of these treasures from mother nature. I read the book cover to cover over 20 times but it wasn’t enough! I read my way through every book on gems at both my school and public library!

I realized I had to get my hand on the real thing. I turned to the internet to purchase some stones.  Unfortunately, after waiting several weeks for my first-ever purchase of gemstones to arrive, I was disappointed by how much duller the stones were compared to the pictures in the listings.

It occurred to me that if I was disappointed with my purchase that other customers must be just as disappointed. I began researching gemstone suppliers. Although gems are mined everywhere from Madagascar to Myanmar, almost every gemstone passes through Thailand at one point or another.

Whether it’s to be cut, certified, or sold, the majority of the world’s fine gemstones pass through the Thai border before reaching their final destination. I reached out directly the Thai cutters and built up our Rolodex of contacts.

After years of purchasing as a collector and supplying local manufacturers, I had finally achieved the supplier network that allowed us to take cor gems international.

Today, cor gems is a global powerhouse in the gemstone industry. We have 20,000+ followers across our social media platforms, buyers on every corner of the globe, and a track record for the best customer service in the industry.

None of this would have been possible without my hardworking team, my supportive family, and above all, my amazing customers.

Thank you,

Muhammad Ali – CEO, cor gems

Why are users outbidding themselves?

When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.

When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
