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

I do enjoy this website and the wide selection. I would like to see more untreated stones. I also wasn't able to see my past order when I logged in.

I needed a very specific color of tourmaline and Gem Select had it. I had to get the client to agree and then ordered the stone. It arrived better than pictured and we all were very happy.
