I visited several online loose stone shops trying to find rare stones. I finally found one that I've been looking for here, and very satisfied. Looking forward to receive the item in 3 weeks.

I've purchased things from GemSelect before. What you see is what you get, which is not always the case with gem sites online. You can find some good value with gem select, and I will buy from them again.

On the clarity options it goes "and better" so if youre looking for si specifically and you click si and better it still shows you basically everything. It just removes the opaques. Itd be nice if it was vs only, vss only, si only, etc
