Many of us have purchased gemstones from flea markets, auction sites on the Internet, or maybe have inherited gems or jewelry. I have also purchased gemstones from the Internet auction sites and some of these stones have tested glass, man-made or plastic. Wouldn't you like to know the identity of your purchase?
I am a 2005 Graduate Gemologist from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and I am offering a service to identify your gemstones at a reasonable cost. I sincerely uphold the GIA Code of Ethics and maintain the highest standard of fairness and honesty.
I only identify loose gemstones. A reputable jeweler can remove your stone from the mounting.
I have all of my gemstone testing equipment in my home, so there is no overhead to pay. I will also identify your gemstone in a timely manner and will get it back to you promptly.
I will try to answer any of your questions and have access to the GIA Library for research.
I am not an appraiser and will not quote any monetary values for your gemstone.
Please take a look at my website and find out if your gemstone is the real thing!
