Certification

Gemstone Certification & Authentication

Transparency and trust are the foundation of everything we do. We prioritise independent third-party certification for our collection.

Our Certification Commitment

More than 80% of our gemstones come with certificates from internationally recognised gemological laboratories. This isn't just good practice — it's our commitment to protecting your investment and ensuring complete confidence in your purchase.

We cover all certification costs. We spend over one hundred thousand dollars annually on professional certifications because your peace of mind is worth it. This cost is absorbed entirely by our company and never passed on to you.

Understanding Our Inventory

Certified Gemstones

All high-value gemstones come with certificates, and many have multiple certifications from different laboratories for additional verification.

Gemstones Pending Certification

A small percentage of lower-priced gemstones may not yet have certificates when listed, because we source and cut in substantial quantities and certification takes time.

Your Protection

If you're interested in a gemstone without a certificate, contact us. We'll arrange for certification at our expense before your purchase is finalised.

Our Recommendation

We strongly encourage you not to purchase gemstones without prior certification, whether from us or any other retailer.

Independent certification provides:

Verification of gemstone species and variety
Confirmation of natural origin
Documentation of any treatments or enhancements
Professional assessment of quality characteristics
Protection for your investment
Peace of mind
