All these questions, and I don't have to give any blood. What a Deal... I absolutely enjoy the Gem Select emails every month. This one today was special. I always say, I'll know it when I see it. This stone today was the One. Odd and Intriguing. Thank You So Much for all that you do.

I found what I was looking for...had to look up millimeters to inches. It would be nice to see something, like a quarter, in the pix to show relative size. I plan on buy loose gemstones for every month in the calendar

I am never let down by GemSelect. I love that you get the exact stone you want. Shipping is always in a few days. I have spread the word about GemSelect on social media jewelry creating groups that I attend. This sapphire is going to make one gorgeous ring

Buy gems by size in millimeters. Some people by gems by color or prize, 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 sizes and shapes, facet cut and cabochon gems available now in the 5 mm size range. Shop a wide range of calibrated gemstones by size online at wholesale from GemSelect.
As a general guideline, when it comes to 'calibrated' gems, they are not usually expected to be cut to exact measurements. 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.
