Absolutely love the website, selection and products. Can you guys add a gemstones with inclusions tab. I like those it'd be nice to have them all in one place but i do understand it would be alot of work to go through and categorize them. Thank you anyways

I purchased 4 gemstones in different sizes to be able to make a family ring for my granddaughter. I got exactly what I saw and they are absolutely beautiful! Shipping was quick compared to other gem stores I have dealt with! I will definitely order more stones from your company, as I am a collector and have several stones. You are my new go to company in the future

This is the first time I have used this site. I was dissatisfied with the quality of gems and supplies elsewhere and decided to try GemSelect. They are awesome! I was thrilled to see the variety and the great web performance. There was the ability to search for information as well as gems. Things like the clarity rating system and caret weight of the gems. I have always loved making things and I have just started to make jewelry as a business. However I have never made a ring before and have always wanted to. On GemSelect I was able to find good quality gems to use in my creations. I am so glad the website is so easy to use. Thank you GemSelect.
