Product Description:

Some people by gems by color or price, but for many, it is best to buy gems by shape and size - especially if you're in need of a gem to replace a previous item that was lost or damaged. Calibrated marquise shaped facet cut gems, gemstone carvings and cabochons available in 5 mm x 3 mm sizes. For the largest selection of colored gemstones, Shop GemSelect Online.

As a general guideline, when it comes to calibrated gems, they are not usually expected to be cut to exact measurements and specifications. But rather, they're cut with slight variance in size, though the close approximatation in size is not clearly defined, there are general guidelines for what is considered acceptable. Obviously larger and heavy carat weight stones allow more room in size for variance, while smaller stones may leave little to none. This means a large 30mm calibrated gemstone, could actually be closer to 31 millimeters. For this reason, we recommend to always view the exact size in addition to the calibrated size details. The exact size will inform you of the variance you can expect. Some setting styles are more flexible with variance, such as prong settings, while other styles of mountings may need almost an exact size to the fraction of millimeter.

For calibrated gemstones weighing under one carat, most jewelry settings will accommodate a gem which is within 0.2 mm of the calibrated size in order to fit a standard setting. For gemstones that weigh over one carat, a larger variance is acceptable, often round shape settings will allow 0.3 mm or slightly higher even. This small variance can usually be accommodated for most standard style settings. Round-cut gemstones should also have a greater variance in acceptable size when it comes to calibration; in fact it is usually possible to mount a round stone of any size in the closest standard setting.

Fantastic dealer for quality gemstones. Website is easy to navigate, selection is superb, delivery of purchases is prompt. Easy to select incorrect payment options, however.

I really enjoy browsing through GemSelect. The selection is always marvelous and I love how detailed everything is described. The only thing I noticed is that when browsing through my phone, the videos of the gems do not load. If there were more videos of the gems, that would be amazing, though I understand that is a lot of work on GemSelect's part! Checking out is also very fast and easy, and I love that the return policy is very good, though I hope I don't have to use it anytime soon.

The website is well organized and works fast forward and back. Plenty of filters. Each gem is described in detail and you receive the one pictured. Gem material info and sources available. I would like to see more specifics on sources besides country- at least region or state and in the US with Turquiose which mine. Thanks!
