Chalcedony (pronounced with a k sound at the beginning) has been used as jewelry, amulets and as seals for thousands of years. In the gemstone trade, chalcedony is a light blue quartz much loved by jewelers for their availability, toughness and ethereal beauty.

Chalcedony is a type of quartz which shares many similarities with other famous gemstones such as Agate, Bloodstone, Carnelian and Jasper. To make things simple, these varieties of microcrystalline quartz are separated by color, patterns or banding. Chalcedony is generally accepted to be the light blue to lavender colored version.
Chalcedony is a very affordable gemstone with most pieces available for just a few dollars per carat. Deeper blue colors or a particularly translucent item could reach as much as $15 per carat as can chalcedony gemstones that have been intricately carved.
As Chalcedony can quite easily be found in large carat sizes, the price does not rise dramatically as the stones get bigger.

Chalcedony is generally not treated in any way other than the usual cutting and polishing.
Chalcedony can be dyed so look out for any outlandish colors such as vivid blue or bright purple.
Chalcedony can be found in Brazil, Namibia, India, Madagascar, Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe.
Chalcedony is rated at 6.5 to 7 Mohs hardness scale which makes them tough enough for all jewelry items including daily wear pieces. Chalcedony has no 'cleavage' so it is not likely to break easily if used as a ring or in a bracelet.
Not only is Chalcedony very affordable, but it can be found in all sizes from tiny lots and matching pairs to large single stones so it is very versatile.

I think the GemSelect website is exceptional. It gives me comfort and confidence that what I select is what I will receive from them. This is why I buy from them. I've purchased many gems from them online and have never been dissatisfied. I like the paperwork that ships with the orders and the reports that are available.

It was a nice and easy process throughout! The website is simple and well made I found everything I needed quickly. I needed some emeralds of a certain size for my custom engagement ring but they only had 3 available on the website, So bought the available ones and reached put to customer service to see if they have any more and they messaged me back within minutes with a list of similar sized emeralds that were not on the site! I quickly purchased my remaining emerald and they added it to my first order! I am more than pleased with the experience and I will be recommending them to anyone in the market for gems! 10/10
